Dr. McCoy:
It has come to my attention that your department had been mistakenly entrusted with childcare duties for the refugees from the Milwayan orphanage.
The situation has been rectified, and Ensign Riley will collect the children for supervision at 1700 hours.
-Lt. Commander Spock
P.S. Please desist from referring to the children as midgets. They are all in the acceptable height percentile for their ages, and Lt. Uhura has informed me that this is a derogatory term commonly employed by childish adults, or those with limited vocabularies.

Scotty needs you in Engineering. Frye's stuck in another j tube. Drop the kids off in the officer's lounge for now; I have to debrief them anyway.

P.S. If they've been good, the replicator across the hall from my quarters makes chocolate frosties and blueberry lollipops. The password's grandmaster kirkilator. TELL ANYONE AND YOU WILL BE MOPPING FLOORS FOR A YEAR.

No, you can't take my hypos to play with. I don't even want to know what you'd do with those. Teach the kids how to play Go Fish. Better yet, leave the kids with someone who won't pollute their innocent minds. Now go get some godammed rest and leave the babysitting to the ensigns.
Christine says she wants the bourbon and the password for your personal replicator.

Dear Martha,
I am afraid I have been injured in the line of duty and will be unable to make it tonight, as Dr. McCoy must keep me for observation because dermal regenerators are 'tricky' when it comes to eyes.
I am very sorry. Please do not take this as a sign of disinterest. I am very interested and look forward to reviewing the equations for transmotional warp with you at lunch tomorrow.
Yours,
Pavel.

I think I did something stupid. I'm hiding in your quarters until the kids and I can recalibrate the surface cleaner to account for finger paints. Apparently, the texture of the indigo shade fucks up the sensors.
If Spock comes by, tell him you haven't seen me.
-Jim.
P.S. Harry likes your socks with the reindeer on them. Can he use them for sock puppets? I promised him I'd show him how to make those.

Sulu,
I told you you should have told him after he broke up with Cadet Galliulin during shore leave. Some times I do not understand you humans; if you like someone, why do you not just say so and have sex? You make things so complicated. You should be more like your captain - though it appears that he, too, has been contaminated with this stupidity lately.
I will be in the officer's lounge after I get off at 2300, if you wish to talk.

1. You're quite possibly the stupidest human being I've ever met.
2. Spock's out for your blood. He came by and M'Benga heard him growling.
3. It's past ten. Get those children to bed. Circadian rhythms were invented for a reason.
4. No. Use your own damn socks.
5. Definitely no. And I'm scheduling Milo for a session with the psychiatris. God knows you've probably contaminated him enough already. Next thing you know, I'll be treating him for STDs.

Dear Yeoman Rand-
So I was supposed to go to dinner with Ensign Chekov this evening, and he canceled - again. Third time this month. He says he's interested, but I'm just not sure. I went down to the sick bay to see him, and he had his friend there, Lt. Sulu. And he looked - I dunno. If he weren't such a good kisser, I'd have dumped his scrawny ass after that mission on the planet with the pollen.
Maybe it's because he's still just eighteen? It's only three years, but maybe our age difference is just too much right now. I just thought - he seemed so nice, and I really love talking with him, but - was it too soon after Gary? Maybe it's not Chekov, maybe it's me. I don't know. Maybe this was just a bad idea to begin with. :(.
Well. Have to go. Scotty's getting on my ass about the dilithium synthesizers again. Girl talk in your room after my shift?
-Martha.
P.S. Kevin told me that someone painted a picture of Spock and Uhura naked in the rec room. Is he serious?

Dear Jane,
Janice was being silly. I believe she found the drawing amusing. This is not a Terran custom; it is simply a juvenile prank. I have my suspicions as to who drew it, but will wait for the results of the investigation. Please pay it no mind.
-Nyota.
P.S. I was going to stop off in the sick bay to check in on Chekov, but Tellura IV just sent me a ton of transmissions to decode. Would you mind checking in on him for me? I'll owe you one.

P.P.S. And you better not. Chapel's got that hot blonde thing going on, but she's your subordinate.
P.P.P.S. Shit. I'm starting to sound like Barnett. I'm only twenty-six - I can't sound like an admiral!
P.P.P.P.S. Matilda still won't stop crying. She seems to like it if I sing (maybe she should go to the psychiatrist too). Should I feed her?

P.S. Cheer up, kid, you're nothing like Barnett. Barnett's an admiral in the city with the highest Orion immigrant population on Earth. You're a captain stuck on a starship in the middle of space for five years with 752 people you're not supposed to have sex with.

Dear Mr. Scotty,
I am meeting with a Terran who has just been indirectly rejected by his chosen partner because he is too cowardly to say anything for fear of direct rejection. Should I bring a small token of sympathy for him? Janice Rand said that chocolate always helps, but in my experience, gifts of chocolate often have sexual connotations to them.
Thank you for your help,
Jane Gaila.

Fellow crewmembers:
According to Starfleet regulation 131.07, subsection C, while officers off duty aboard a starship may be granted certain liberties, it is still required that they maintain a sense of decorum while in the service of the Federation. Failure to do so will result in serious repercussions.
The case of vandalism in the officer's lounge is currently under investigation. Should the perpetrators come forward now, they will be treated with leniency.
I urge you all to review your Handbooks of Starfleet Regulation and continue to conduct yourselves professionally.

Did you hear that Spock and Uhura were caught getting it on in the rec room? Apparently, Commander Scott got it all on tape.
I heard Kirk's livid about it - like he has room to talk. I heard one time he got caught in a threesome with McCoy and Lt. Gaila in a classroom at the Academy by Admiral Pike - and he still didn't get kicked out. Fucking teacher's pet.
Who knows? Maybe they'll get a demotion over this.

It is Lt. Sulu. I am worried about him. I think he is angry at me but I do not know why. He has been moody for several weeks now and right now we are in the sick bay next to each other and he will not talk to me. He is pretending to sleep and told me to go see my girlfriend.
