Ship's Log | To Boldly Go

Excited? Scared? How are you feeling?

Travelers ONLY

I have what I hope is good news for those of you don't want to go back.

When the Enterprise gets to the nebula, everyone has to disembark. Yes, everyone. However, if you do not want to return to where you came from, you'll be able to board a ship Starfleet is sending out to meet us, and remain here. If you choose to do that, you need to know that you won't have any other opportunity to return in the future.

Everyone who chooses to remain will be granted full Federation citizenship and will be returned to Earth. There will be some kind of help at the start, money-wise, but it won't be much. Apparently, there's been a foundation set up by some wealthy Federation citizens that will cover some things to begin but then it will be your responsibility to get a job, make your own money, etc.

That's about all I know so far but if you have additional questions, you can let me know and I'll keep pressing.

Travelers Only

I know you have a million questions.

Leave them here.

Added: While I don't know yet whether it's even an option or not, please let me know if you would like to stay here if given the option?

Travelers - Commander Troi has been conducting experiments on us through experiments on the nebula that brought us here. It turns out we are still connected to it and every time he experiments with the nebula, it has been adversely affecting us.

The bursts of anger? The headaches? The nightmares? All a result of his experimentation. I have the research he's gathered and the parameters of his experiment. Starfleet command authorized the experiments, even after they realized what was happening to us. I've sent copies of his experiment and conclusions to everyone's PADD, so that they cannot hide the truth any longer.

I refuse to be a guinea pig. I demand complete transparency. Do with me what you must, Starfleet, but I only hope that the Enterprise crew that has been so accommodating of us since the first of us to arrive will stand with us against this injustice, that they were not involved in any of the decisions made here.

There's a very good chance I'm about to be sent to the brig for an undetermined amount of time. But I needed you two to know what's going on, why we've all been plagued with these headaches, bursts of anger, and nightmares.

I've written down as much as I could about Troi's research because I don't trust the copies I've sent to everyone's PADDs not to get destroyed. Hide them. Make sure Starfleet doesn't get their hands on them. Make your own copies. Just make sure this doesn't get swept under the rug.

I'm sorry I didn't tell you what I was doing beforehand. I didn't think I would find this while gathering my intel. But I needed to get it out before Troi realized someone had found him out.

Be angry with me, but protect yourselves. I will not go quietly.

[ FILTERED TO GENERAL LEIA & MARY CRAWLEY ]
Do you trust Pike to be good for his word? If so, care to meet him with me in a neutral location?

To those of you who saw me pass out this morning in the observation deck, I'm alright. Thank you to whomever got me to the medbay. There's nothing broken and no concussion, but the doctor wants me to take it a bit easy nonetheless.

It's these damn headaches. They won't go away and there seems to be no medicine for them. The pain got so bad that I simply fainted. That's never happened to me before.

What is going on with everyone on this ship lately?

I seem to have lost the encryption key to the file that contains all of the Quantum Signatures for each Traveler's Quantum Reality. It could take ... months to recover that data.



seperate but identical dms to Susan and Mary

Be careful around Troi. He’s a Betazed, they can read minds. Wouldn’t want to make him see anything inappropriate. ;)

Good morning. My name is Commander Troi and I've arrived on the Enterprise after a brief mission aboard the USS Temperance. I'm a senior research scientist and astrophysicist in the sciences division of Starfleet Command. I'm looking forward to my time aboard and getting to know everyone.

I'd like to meet with each of you one on one over the next few weeks and months. For some of you, this might be a one and done, and for others this might be multiple sessions. I'm no counselor so don't think this is going to be any kind of counseling session; these are informational sessions where I will be able to ascertain more information regarding what brought each of you here.

To begin, I'd like you each to tell me what you were doing - exactly - what you were doing in the moments before you were pulled here. Never mind how mundane they might be. From there I will begin scheduling appointments.

OOC Information: Declan is a Betazoid, which means that he's a telepath. He will not be able to read your character's mind via the network, so don't worry about any replies you make that way. If you choose to do a log with him, we can discuss the nuances of his telepathy and see how it plays out. Basically, he will probably be reading your mind if you're face-to-face, but you don't have anything to worry about when talking to him via the network.

Sometimes, I have to ask myself if the hangover is worth it.

Well.

This is not how I expected my day to go.

Observed an interesting anomaly this morning, but after further readings and a bit of backtracking I discovered it was simply an erroneous reading.

So the next time you run music through your quarters, make sure you didn't accidentally tap into the wrong systems or someone, probably me, is going to be sitting there trying to figure out why a quasar is pulsing to the beat of a 200 year old song about a snowman.


(Ooc: Anyone is welcome to be the culprit :D)

While I am not at all happy that we were forced to leave paradise in order to return to this ship, the Lounge has been fully restocked and there are some new drinks to try out as well. I know a good deal of you had missed me, even those who would never admit to it.

I have been encouraged to explore the shops while I am here. Does anyone want to accompany me and act as the voice of restraint I will probably choose to ignore?

Illya Kuryakin

I have not seen much of you these past few days. How has Risa been treating you?

In advance of our stop at Risa, I've been tasked with putting together our accommodations list.

If you could please let me know which type of accommodation you'd like and if you have a preference as to whom you'd like to stay with. I will do my best to accommodate, but we have a limited bank of rooms so not everyone will be placed where they'd like to be.

Your choices:

2-4 people in a bungalow on the water
4-8 people in an inland treehouse
Up to 12 people in a condominium-style residence in the main resort proper

As I am intimately acquainted with Risa from many visits throughout my life times, ask me anything you might not want to ask the Captain. My previous host died there in the arms of a very lovely lady.

He'd say it was worth it.

Got a minute? I'd like to ask you something.

After the murder party, is anyone interested in a regular party? There used to be a ship, the Sutherland, they'd come into DS9 and throw the wildest parties. My bachelorette party was a thing of legend.

So I'm thinking something like that.

All right, all right.

Birthdays. Everyone's got one. Leave your birthday here so I can keep a running tab. And yes, I know I can look at my PADD and everything, but this will be faster.

ALSO I know that some of you might not have birthdays that follow the normal calendar? Or, you know, the calendar we all go by? The Federation one? I don't know. It's mostly the same as the one I know only with just numbers and such instead of months but ANYway.

Basically, if you don't know how to match up your birthday (or don't know your birthday?) with the calendar we all use, maybe now's the time to pic a birthday??

My family and I are missing home, so we're going to be throwing a barbecue in Oahu via holodeck. If you're free on Saturday night, we'd be more than happy to see you there.

Colonel Carter, I hope you can make it.

It's too early in the morning to be up, and yet, here we are. So if anyone is interested in joining me for breakfast, I have a full breakfast bar set up in the dining area. Make bad choices for your diet alongside me and have your weight in pancakes, waffles, eggs, bacon, fruits, and coffee, just as life intended for us to feast.

And also to get your brains working before you get here: your favorite song recommendations? I have a lot to catch up on.

[OOC: I'm sorry for the late intro (I got sick) but if you want to assume Molly's met you already go ahead!]

I think I've gotten used to this ship a little, so I should introduce myself. I'm Molly Hooper, formerly from London, England. It's a pleasure to meet all of you I've bumped into so far.
