Ah yes, the planet where I used to dump toxic waste. What? It was convient and it was too much of a hassle to transport it in a standard V2 class ship.

I think it's those telemarketers again

[Cassandra]

All I can say is that I'm glad I got my title of Red Shirt removed before we started sending out away teams.

:

Yes yes, very glad. That would have meant death, sure enough.

[BetaB17]

Well, you're still an ensign, so your basically the equivalent a 'red shirt' of the bridge crew

Still, marginal progression in the way careers, and the benefits that follow. [Off the record, that was a compliment]

[MARS]

Also, while I'm at it. Lil Mars, where are you? Oh, still in that coffee machine. I mean, that circuit is safe, all things considered, but you can't really just plan on living in that.. Thing? Not indefinitely, of course[Your code is already showing signs of corrosion]

And this.. Is why prolonged diving sessions are dangerous

[Cassandra]

Well, I know that. But the ensign never gets sent on an away team mission to die.

:

Though I suppose I am still the lowest ranking member of this ship...



Well, best not to dwell on negative thoughts.

[Off the record, that was a compliment]

Thanks?

*Boarded Shuttle at 14:00, as a member of Away Team 1, and has now landed on the planet designated PX 4-17*

Incoming Communication

Head of Scientific Research & LEADING OVERSEER Chief Engineer to the S.S. UESP.
We have landed on PX 4-17 and from a preliminary search of the immediate area, it seems to be deserted. Landscape is rocky and dry, and devoid of anything but rudimentary plant life. Will continue exploration. Stand by for future communication in one hour.

End of communication

[BetaB17]

@Ensign Cassandra: To correctly inform you, am ensign is the lowest ranking naval personnel within the control deck/bridge. You still outrank plenty of the non-essential personnel, just not by much

(Also, just to break the bad news, you can be sent out on away teams, if the Captain needs you to)

[Aarah]

Incoming Communication

Away Team 1 to the S.S. UESP.
We have come across some strange cave-like structures. They don't fit in with the surrounding landscape, leading us to believe that they may have been made by some kind of lifeform. No signs of anything other than ourselves yet.
Approaching caves with caution.
Stand by for future communication in one hour.

Be careful, the drones are picking up increased level of radiation under the planetoid's surface.

Cause: Inconclusive..

Well, the captain isn't here, is he? Besides, I doubt he even knows I exist. I mean, it's not like I spend any time actually working.

Incoming Transmission

Away Team 1 to S.S. UESP.
We have found something.
Deeper into the cave system we have started to come across metal pipes. They are emitting a whirring sound and head deeper into the caverns. There are some kind of bioluminescent organisms on the stone walls.
We are apprehensive as to what may lie further ahead.
Setting lasers to stun and continuing on.
Stand by for communication within one hour.

You know what I love about this thread? Everyone is all over the place, just having fun doing their own bonkers thing. Mars has turned into code and is in the appliances, Cass is being assimilated with her counterpart from another dimension, I'm on a planetary away mission, Beta is joining in with all of the above, leroy will probably come in at some point to moan about not being chief engineer, Dovah is plotting to dominate the quadrant, Kerr is toying with time travel...
The S.S. UESP is a wacky bunch.

If my History/Geography department wasn't just a cover for time travel research I would have gone with you to those caverns. Oh god, now that Beta has destroyed my chair are people going to expect me to do stuff my department is named after?

[BetaB17]

Rhetorical Answer: Yes

Yes. We do.
Also - I left your research out of my previous list! You must be edited in. Done!

I want to know what was wrong with that toaster now. What part happened to you? No cream? No coffee? Crazy machine?
(Btw I'm putting my posts in hide tags because I'm supposed to be off the ship and of course, believability must be maintained).

I identify with that coffee machine on a very deep level.
