As the various away teams made their way to shuttle bay or airlock, shift was changing on the bridge. The faces taking over were not, for the most part, the usual suspects. Many of the regulars on the bridge had ended up on one team or another; the current shift was a makeshift sort of thing. And with any luck it would be a quiet shift, broken only ( Read more... )

Jim walked into the gym a few hours after dinner, wanting to burn off some energy and make sure he was fir for the upcoming mission ( Read more... )

Saval was not exactly a fixture in this area of the ship, despite his attempt to look as though he knew his way around the equipment. The last time he'd attempted anything more athletic than power-walking to catch a turbolift before it closed, he'd been 16 years old and he'd nearly gotten his neck broken by the burly captain of the Shi'Kahr Academy ( Read more... )

One thing that had become painfully clear during their disaster of a first mission was that certain members of the crew - naming no names - were in dire need of a refresher course in basic hand-to-hand. Of course offcially there was no good reason for the head of security to be leading said refresher courses personally. But Creed was generally of ( Read more... )

It was funny how she could tidy this drawer and that storage unit and that stack of PADDs every single day and every single day, she had to do it again. Well, maybe not funny. Odd or annoying or just the way a starship's medical bay is supposed to work, but not necessarily funny ( Read more... )

"The phoretic analyzer in Biolab Three is still broken," was the greeting Leonard got immediately upon arriving in Sickbay, early. Borad looked as uptight and judgmental he had the past two days of Pike's 'visit ( Read more... )

Three days: only three days ago the first team had beamed down onto Bacchus II. It felt like bloody months. And now it was finally over ( Read more... )
