'''[[Tristam Core|Core]]:''' Seriously, what is it that's bugging you? Is it the eyes? Would you like me to put something on to cover them? Because that's fine - I don't want you to crash us into something. I mean, I've done this heaps of times before - been in service for five years, and you're part of the very few who seems convinced that I may eat you.

'''Roqeth:''' What *are* you?
<nowiki>::</nowiki>Tristam's eyebrows rose high, black eyes impossibly wide. After a few seconds frozen like this, expression over-emphasised in a typical manner for a Rodulan, Tristam recomposed himself, giving an answer laced with sarcasm.::
'''[[Tristam Core|Core]]:''' I'm your messiah. Careful, else I'll melt your brain.
'''Roqeth:''' You *dare*-
'''Core:''' Relax. I'm a Rodulan. And incredibly disappointed in your education system.

'''Core:''' No, sir. It doesn't. The minute you learn to trust me and my capabilities, I'll start forwarding you all the reports you want bar those you cannot access due to security clearance. Until then, ::he stepped into the turbolift:: Deck six.

'''[[Sky Blake|Blake]]:''' How convenient that some of the important men of my life have returned under mysterious circumstances.
'''[[Kallo Ver|Kallo]]:''' Aww!
'''Blake:''' Don't flatter yourself, I wasn't talking about you.
'''Kallo:''' Aw.
----
'''[[Alora DeVeau|DeVeau]]:''' Do you like cats?
<nowiki>::</nowiki>He choked on his drink, the glass disappearing from his hands as he forced himself to remain upright.::
'''[[Jhalib Ekal|Ekal]]:''' Well done, Commander. You've found a question I didn't think I'd have been restricted from answering.
----
'''[[Tristam Core|Core]]:''' Blake?
'''[[Sky Blake|Blake]]:''' Hmm?
'''Core:''' . . . where's Maravosh?
'''Blake:''' Dunno. I think she's shocked somewhere.
'''Core:''' So, why are you in her chair?
'''Blake:''' It was the only free chair on the Bridge.
----
'''[[Evan Delano|Delano]]:''' Well, that was thoroughly unpleasant. Is it always like this?
'''[[Jhalib Ekal|Ekal]]:''' This is worse than usual. ::huff:: I think the- the spacial coordinates- ::huff:: -made it rough. ::huff:: More than usual.
'''[[Geoffrey Teller|Teller]]:'''  Admiral Janeway is right...time travel is stupid.  I regret suggesting it.
<nowiki>::</nowiki>[[Aron Kells|Kells]] laughed. Jhalib just thought that Admiral Janeway was a bit of a hypocrite.::
----
'''[[Jhalib Ekal|Ekal]]:''' I . . .
oO Think that’s a dumb idea? Oo
oO Think this might not end well? Oo
oO Think that’s a little too complicated? Oo
oO Think I’m under-qualified for that? Oo
'''Ekal:''' . . . can try?
'''[[Evan Delano|Delano]]:''' I think that will be best.
----
'''[[Jhalib Ekal|Ekal]]:''' =/\= I’m not sure- =/\=
<nowiki>::</nowiki>Actually no. Screw it. If he was going to die in a ball of flames because his program wasn’t accurate, he wanted to be confident in his poor choices.::
'''Ekal:''' =/\= This program code is ready to go and will definitely work when implemented. =/\=
'''[[Geoffrey Teller|Teller]]:''' =/\= Loving that confidence Ekal.  Don't worry, worst thing that happens is we fail the whole crew and then die a fiery death.=/\=
'''Ekal:''' =/\= Yep. =/\=
<nowiki>::</nowiki> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ::
----
'''[[Sky Blake|Blake]]:''' You. Handle that one.
'''[[Zhou Tai-Sheng|Zhou]]:''' Why am I always babysitting for you these days?
<nowiki>::</nowiki>Jhalib glanced back at Zhou before staring at nothing, giving an exasperated sigh.::
----
'''[[Jhalib Ekal|Blake]]:''' Okay, first of all - last night was … ::He gave a laugh.:: Last night was nice, but it wasn’t *life threateningly good*, if you get my meaning-
'''[[Merce Ekal|Merce]]:''' Can you take this seriously for even just a minute-
----
'''[[Marcus Dickens|Dickens]]:''' It's our lucky day, this place seemed to have some kind of backup and this is working. If i'm not mistaken, this should be a list of people and we might find up who we are.
'''[[Kinan Venroe|Kinan]]:''' That'd be helpful. I feel like I have about eight different names and none of them suit me.
----
'''[[Kallo Ver|Kallo]]:''' You're a Brekkian Betazoid female. You can read minds-
'''[[Sky Blake|Blake]]:''' I cannot.
'''Kallo:''' -and can zap people.
'''Blake:''' That's a simplification, but sure.
'''Kallo''': You were born 2363 on Delos IV, which puts your birth a mere year *prior* to first contact with the Brekkians-
'''Blake:''' We don't talk about that plot hole here.
'''Kallo:''' Your skin is naturally hot to touch because you're an alien and run a hotter body temperature than nearly everyone else - which means you with a fever is probably making Mr Teller very uncomfortable, by the way.
'''Blake:''' Kallo, I will deck you.
----
'''[[Jocelyn Marshall|Marshall]]:''' Who knows? We might end up coming your way in the near future.
She almost choked on her jibrore.
'''[[Sky Blake|Blake]]:''' Aren’t you guys on a Galaxy class?
'''Marshall:''' Excuse you, ::she cocked an eyebrow with a side grin,:: Sovereign.
The correction didn’t phase her.
'''Blake:''' Uh huh. Call me when you guys lose a few tonnes.
----
'''[[Kelrod]]:''' Before we proceed, we need to check the rest of the ship, but I'm curious about what were you doing in this ship?
'''[[Kallo Ver|Kallo]]:''' Insurance scam.
Silence permeated the smokey cargo hold. Perplexed at the silence -- and scrutiny with which he was being stared at by all members of the Veritas crew -- Kallo shrugged his shoulders.
'''Kallo:''' What?
'''Kelrod:''' Does the captain know that you're here and who you really are? Because he didn't mentioned having any passenger...
'''Kallo''': That... is also a long story.
'''[[Sky Blake|Blake]]:''' Why not make it a short story then?
'''Kallo:''' In order to access the priceless family heirloom of one important person, I had to pass myself off as a member of that family... and "die".
The XO pinched the bridge of her nose.
'''Kallo:''' It was the easiest way into the family crypt -- which houses the diamond I'm looking for!
'''Blake:''' And "dying" was the best way to achieve this?
'''Kallo:''' How else am I meant to break into the crypt?
Blake's eyes flickered as she considered the smaller man's words.
...touche, really, because there was no other reasonable explanation for his being in a crypt clearly not for him.
'''Blake:''' Well... how's your plan working out so far?
'''Kallo:''' Well it was going fine until the cargo hold caught fire. Though, admittedly, this is my second attempt.
'''Kelrod:''' What do you think commander? Shall we inform the captain of Ver's presence on this ship, or just send him to the Veritas, into custody?
'''Kallo:'''::grumbling:: You'd force me to do this a third time?
----
'''[[Kallo Ver|Kallo]]:''' I intend to take a diamond belonging to the Badnut family. They're a rather wealthy bunch that run trade near End Triangle. But to get the diamond, I have to access their family crypt. And I can't just walk in.
'''[[Roshanara Rahman|Rahman]]:''' That doesn't explain why you weren't on the manifest.
'''Kallo:''' I'd never lie to you, Captain. I intended to pretend to be a member of the family, fake my death, have my body placed in the crypt — and with complete and open access to the Badnut diamond available to me, it is mine for the taking.
'''[[Sky Blake|Blake]]:'''::frowning in thought:: If you couldn't walk into the crypt through regular means, how did you intend to walk out of it?
Kallo opened his mouth, but paused, his index finger raised. After a moment, his finger dropped and his mouth closed, unable to answer her logical question.
Blake pinched the bridge of her nose as she sighed.
----
'''[[Wil Ukinix|Ukinix]]:''' ::Handing Khaia back to Zhanyt:: Well, Zhanyt, If you ever need a pet sitter… ::smirk:: Commander Blake would be more than happy to volunteer.
The XO choked on air.
'''[[Sky Blake|Blake]]:''' Commander Blake has paperwork.
----
'''[[Wil Ukinix|Ukinix]]:''' Does this mean I get a promotion?
'''[[Sky Blake|Blake]]:''' no.
'''Ukinix:''' What about a commendation?
'''Blake:''' I'm sure there's a cone hat with the word "dunce" on it somewhere around here.
'''Ukinix:''' Formal dinner in the Captain’s Mess?
'''Blake:''' Now you're just being unreasonable.
'''Ukinix:''' What’s the second prize?
'''Blake:''' My undying gratitude and excellent reference letter. Now come on -- the sooner we get this done, the sooner you get a nice hat.
