Kivicus: ::stands at the OPS console learning the ropes::
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie: ::Then stretches a little and then moves to check on the stellar cartography, to make sure they have the most up to date information on the sector we are going to meet up with the Excelsior. Letting them know we need all information possible if the captain asks for it.::
::When that is done, now that she had a free moment, went to the wellness center to check on Thea, concerned about her friend.::

Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie: ::Putting out her hand and gently pressing Thea back down:: Don't get up, Thea. I just wanted to check on you and make sure you are okay. Take the time you need to get healthy again, so you can come back. I miss having you in science. And I'm sorry that time didn't allow me to find the non-addictive cure first. Can I bring you anything to do, to help occupy your mind? A book of puzzles, or a book to read, maybe something to write or draw with?
●● Lt Nikosh Targus: ::rubs his tired eyes:: Oh, hello, Lt. Kai. Yes, you can see Thea. Sorry, we're all just a bit .... worn.

●● Lt Nikosh Targus: The Captain seems a bit delayed in responding, so I'll tell you what I know for the pause ....
(I've seen a lot of "{Name} typing" but no text ....
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix: Okay guys sorry..... apparently there are positions that need to be clarified. I have not had time to get with our illustrious command due to conflicting schedules
my signal dropped out sorry.
I don't want any interruptions unless your called on
We need to clarify positions until I have a moment this week to talk to you between now and Saturday.
It will be your responsibility to make the effort to reach out to me. I need time to wrap my head around who is who. some of you play multiple positions and characters and you’re going to have to bear with me.
my medical conditions cause brain fog and occasionally I do forget things.
So for the sake of running smoothly we do need this ironed out. I'm terribly sorry to stop the sim for this but I am still trying to also learn the app and all the other fun stuff.
I can assure you we will have a very fun sim and exciting MOST of the time.
I was happily drug back into simming but it’s been about 7 yrs. and a lot has changed as far as format and commands go.
So for tonight Cormac you have operations and Targus you have helm. This may change next week but by next week we will have this ironed out?
Any pertinent questions that can wait till after sim?
●● Lt Nikosh Targus: I'll get with Morgensen and try to iron out the latest Roster to send to you, Captain, so we can see where we were and where people want to go.
Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke: [No questions, but I will get with you later about the positions and how to work Discord now that I got you so you can use it on the laptop @FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix ]
Lt. Persia Lionmane: (I hope my pm's helped clarify me adon and Heather.)
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix: Okay then lets knock this sim out. we need to be within close range and i need all pertenent personel on the bridge now and we will go from there. Adon I want you there also please.
Ens. Langsbury: ;;rh;;
●● Lt Nikosh Targus: You got it, Captain.
Lt. Persia Lionmane: (Uh pertenent????)

Lt. Persia Lionmane: (Oooooh am I essential?)
Lt JG Laurel Lance: (That relate to the sim)
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix: Priority, essential...
●● Lt Nikosh Targus: Jehane, go ahead with your question, please.
Ens. Langsbury: where do you want Ariella?
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix: no persia
Lt. Persia Lionmane: So I'm good in my happy little world?
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie: Yes, Persia.

FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix: ==sayd== BEGIN SIM
Ens. T. Queen / Lt. H. Argeneau: % Thea> ::Laid back down at everyone's urgings and sighed,:: It's not your fault, or anyone else's. We were on a time crunch if I hadn't bumped into Persia for a second dose of White I probably would have been fine really. ::Thea frowned,:: It was my own fault for not getting help when I realized I was addicted instead I let that addiction take hold of me... ::Thea frowned hoping she hadn't ruined her career in Starfleet.::
% Heather> ::Smiled softly and went to get Persia a cup of replicated Coffee that was listed under her name as a favorite.::
●● Lt Nikosh Targus: % ::sighs:: I think I saw a message that the Captain wanted me on the Bridge. Heather, Persia, take care of Thea, and call me if you need me.

Cmdr Queen/Lt. Smoke: ::gives a glance over his shoulder to Cormac:: I still can if you miss me that much.
Lt. Persia Lionmane: % Aye....Sir...
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie: ::Nodding:: Okay, Thea. I have to get to the bridge. But I will come back. And yes, I do want you back on my staff, when you are better. I am pleased with your work and I want to see you go far. ::Patting her hand a moment and then leaving to go to the bridge::

●● Lt Nikosh Targus: ::jerks back awake as the doors slide open to the Bridge:: What? Oh, right, the Bridge. ::exits and walks around the railing::
Kivicus: ::re aligns the deflector dish by .03 degrees::

Capt. Holden (XL): =/\= ACTION =/\= The science scanners suddenly detect a slight wavering and it becomes defined as the old Orion cloaking devices, for five targets.
FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix: Be on your toes down there, they arent friendly and was told we will be given trouble.
Kivicus: (wouldn’t that be operations not science?)
Lt. Persia Lionmane: % Orchids? ::She tilted her head to the side still refuseing to leave from thea::

FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix: According to my calculations we are in range.
Capt. Holden (XL): (No, it would be science)

●● Lt Nikosh Targus: ::watches the Tellarite bear down on the snacks:: Is he ...?
Lt. Cmdr Kai Makorie: Captain, we have five old time Orion ships ahead of us. Even though they are old, they are still advanced of where we are. And they are using a cloak we are not familiar with.
Ens. Langsbury: ( must be cold over there for those ships to need cloaks)
Lt. Persia Lionmane: % Oooo ::Persia stared in awe::
○●● LtCmdr Adonudo Tlanuwa: ::leans over the food, sniffs, grabs a sandwich in each hand, shoves one in his mouth:: Mmph ... haven't had ... mmph ... food on ze Bridge ... ::grunts:: ... in long time!

FCpt. Ravynn Phoenix: Shields up now, go to yellow
Capt. Holden (XL): =/\= ACTION =/\= Tactical analysis shows one of the ships would be no match for the Roddy, but five of them will certainly take the starships down.
