|Title= Toxin Arlill: A Quiet Moment & Inner Thoughts
|Short Description= Toxin Arlill logs his thoughts about Henri, an entity created from his interfacing with the ship's computer.
|Long Description=
Lieutenant Toxin Arlill begins a personal log, encrypted for privacy, reflecting on the two weeks since the USS Octavia E Butler's computer interfaced with him, creating an entity named Henri. Henri, who calls himself a "Holographically Emitted Neuro-Ready Incarnation," interacts with Toxin through his neuro pathways. Toxin finds himself unable to remove or deactivate Henri, raising concerns about Henri potentially taking over his mind. During the log, Henri manifests physically in Toxin's quarters, a significant development from his usual presence in Toxin's mind. The two decide to sit and discuss the situation, highlighting the blend of unease and fascination Toxin feels towards Henri's abilities and presence.

|Title= Promenade Encounters and Personal Revelations
|Short Description= Commander Rouiancet and Lieutenant JG Nilsen spend time on the Promenade of Deep Space 14, discussing personal matters and enjoying recreational activities.
|Long Description=
Under the guise of an operational need, Commander Lia Rouiancet is prompted by Lieutenant JG Lhandon Nilsen take some time to relax and explore. Despite initially feeling the pull of duty, Rouiancet decides to enjoy her break. After getting a snack, a bougatsa krema (a sweet pastry filled with a thick custard), Lhandon shares his thanks for always having his back. The conversation shifts through various topic, including Nilsen's diplomacy role play and prospects, and his perspective on her capataincy.
After some prodding throughout the conversation, Lhandon shares that he believes that the whole crew is behind her and that she deserves to be a full-on Captain. Lian then she reflects on how weird her path was to the big chair. Meanwhile, while Lieutenant Arlill he makes his way back to the ship, handling a supply error involving self-sealing stem bolts instead of the required matter/anti-matter injectors, he spots Rouiancet and Nilsen and becomes curious about their interaction. During this observation, Arlill has an internal dialogue with Henri, his inner voice, who speculates on Nilsen's motives and whether he might be vying for Arlill’s position. As the pair walked toward him, he slipped into the crowd to remain unnoticed.
The pair continue conversing, Nilsen sharing that he has a new boyfriend, Eli Kovacs, an engineer on their ship. Rouiancet congratulates him, and they discuss the early stages of his relationship.  As they discuss where to visit next, they land on the Arcade, with Rouiancet encouraging Nilsen to spend quality time with Kovacs during their leave.

|Title= Radek's Interrogation and Return to Quarters
|Short Description= Ensign Radek is interrogated by Commander Walker about his time as a prisoner of the Zet and his interactions with Lieutenant Kessler. He is eventually sent back to his quarters.
|Long Description=
Ensign Radek, a junior Security officer from the USS Caboto, is feeling lost on the USS Octavia E. Butler. With his clearances not yet reinstated, he is unable to access the ship's systems or communicate freely. After undergoing medical and psychological evaluations, Radek meets with Commander Margaret Walker, the Director of Intelligence. Radek reports to the Security Department Conference Room, where Walker begins her interrogation.
Walker questions Radek about the nature of the tests conducted on prisoners by the Zet. Radek explains that the tests were detailed scans, mainly neurological for him, and he did not witness any deliberate harm to the prisoners. Walker remains suspicious, pressing Radek for more information about the Zet's motivations and their study of prisoners. Radek suggests that the Zet were trying to assess the prisoners' value for potential buyers, but he admits he is not sure.
Despite Radek's honest answers, Walker continues to question him rigorously, which makes Radek uncomfortable. Walker emphasizes the importance of being thorough and expresses skepticism about Radek's quick reinstatement after being a prisoner for over a year. Radek apologizes for any perceived disrespect and attempts to defend his honesty, but Walker remains unconvinced.
Ultimately, Walker decides the interrogation is over and orders Lieutenant Dynevor to escort Radek back to his quarters. Radek leaves, uncertain about his future and feeling that Starfleet Intelligence still has many questions about him.

|Title= GATOR Deck Operations: Jacen Xaivis and Michele Winters


|Short Description= Jacen Xaivis delivers a gift to Captain Michele Winters and they discuss its potential use for marine operations.
|Long Description=
Second Lieutenant Jacen Xaivis attempts to make himself useful by delivering a gift to the Marine contingent on the GATOR Deck of the USS Octavia E. Butler. Pushing an anti-grav lift with several boxes, Xaivis, accompanied by an operations petty officer, arrives at the main area. The sentries scrutinize them, but their ID checks out. Captain Michele Winters approaches, and Xaivis introduces himself, preferring to be useful only when necessary, hinting at the dangerous nature of his role as a Combat Rescue Officer.
Winters inquires about the contents of the crates, and Xaivis explains they are ASPs (Aerial Support Platforms) designed for search and rescue operations with a sensor package more powerful than a heavy tricorder. Winters questions their functionality if other technology is disabled, and Xaivis assures her of the ASP's insulated power cell and controlled landing capabilities.
Winters decides to test the equipment on the training range. Xaivis sets up the ASP, and Winters arrives with a training drone to evaluate its performance. Xaivis demonstrates the ASP's capabilities, emphasizing its use in situations where transporters and other technology might fail. Despite its current limitations in range and power, the ASP shows promise as a valuable tool for command-and-control and reconnaissance missions.
Winters is impressed and instructs Xaivis to have a proposal on her desk by 08:00 the next morning, indicating her approval of the initiative and the potential of the new equipment.

|Title= JOPA: 404 Gathering
|Short Description= Lhandon Nilsen hosts a gathering in his quarters, with an unexpected EV walk.
|Long Description=
In Lhandon Nilsen's quarters, humorously named "404 room," he prepares a beef stifado following his grandmother's recipe. Maxwell arrives first, serving as the chief taste tester. The two discuss the need for a new bingo list suitable for their current ship, the USS Octavia E. Butler, with tighter security measures. They recall past pranks and set plans for the evening. Yinn arrives next, bringing a variety of drinks, including brandy, blood wine, kanar, and ferlic acid. Nilsen appreciates Yinn's efforts and her honest communication style. Eli Kovacs joins, contributing a bottle of Raktale, and the group discusses the challenges and changes since their recent mission, including the impact on their living arrangements.
Josh Herrick enters with non-alcoholic root beer, easing into the gathering despite mixed feelings towards some attendees. The conversation shifts to relaxation and the importance of balancing work and leisure. The group teases each other and shares light-hearted banter about pranks and personal experiences. As the evening progresses, Zarah Johnson arrives with brownies and raspberry cordial, lightening the mood. They joke about the various drinks and their effects, and Maxwell humorously contemplates the chaos that might ensue. The officers continue to bond, supporting each other through recent challenges and enjoying a much-needed reprieve from their duties.
As the evening continues, the team discusses the tradition of engraving names into the ship's hull and, with them posted to a new ship, that they'd need to redo this aboard the Octavia E Butler. They arrange to head down onto Deck 5 under the guise of completing routine inspections after their last mission. Toxin decides to join the group, despite the rift that has formed between him and Lhandon, and heads out to the EV lockers. There, Herrick, Johnson, Yinn, Kovacs, and Maxwell prepare for the spacewalk. Nilsen coordinates from the Operations Center, ensuring all equipment is ready.
The group suits up and steps out onto the hull of the USS Octavia E Butler, marveling at the view of New Bajor and DS14. The team members take turns etching their names and messages onto the ship’s hull, a JOPA tradition. During this, Zarah Johnson accidentally disengages her magnetic boots, causing her to float away from the ship. Panic ensues, but Nilsen guides her to use the recall button on her suit, allowing her to return safely. Maxwell and Arlill assist in securing her.
The JOPA crew reconvenes at Lhandon Nilsen’s quarters following a daring exercise of carving their names into the hull.  The crew reflects on their harrowing experience, sharing a mix of relief and camaraderie. Zarah Johnson reassures everyone that she is fine, and the group exchanges light-hearted banter.
Lieutenant Josh Herrick and Ensign Lhandon Nilsen present a special surprise for Arlill: an unofficially official Operations tricorder, crafted as a thoughtful farewell gift. Arlill, rendered speechless by the gesture, gratefully accepts the tricorder, admiring its custom features. The group continues to bond, making jokes and toasting to Arlill’s future success. Nilsen takes a group photo to commemorate the event, capturing a moment of unity and friendship among the crew. The meeting concludes with toasts and hopes for Arlill’s bright future.

|Title= Gym Encounters
|Short Description= It's gym time for Arlill, Nilsen, Caras, and suprisingly Henri.
|Long Description=
Lieutenant Toxin Arlill is working out in the ship's gymnasium, aided by Henri. Henri describes the feeling of the ship reaching out to him, and as a result of asking the ship's computer to project him, gains holographic form. When Toxin asks Henri to spot him while lifting weights, instead the AI controlled his endorphins to give him superstrength, at the cost of blurring his eyes and increasing his blood pressure. The Chief Ops Officer wants to investigate further.
Meanwhile, Ensign Morro Caras joins Lieutenant JG Lhandon Nilsen arrive at a separate side of the gym for a workout. Caras, who hasn't had much time to socialize, is eager to engage in physical activity and social interactions. Nilsen invites Caras to join the rugby team, to which Caras expresses interest despite not being familiar with the sport. During their workout, Caras performs a series of stretches while Nilsen engages in deep squats.
Lhandon notices Lieutenant Toxin Arlill, who is finishing his workout with a companion named Henri, and decides to introduce him to Morro. Henri, now with a corporeal form, introduces himself to Nilsen and Caras as an officer down in Waste Reclamation. The group discusses their workout routines, with Henri hinting at Toxin's impressive progress despite Arlill's modesty. The exchange ends on a positive note, with Lhandon suggesting the group get together for Rugby practice, which Morro has never heard of, and in turn the group would learn dance from the Orion engineer. Arlill protests, mentioning his two left feet and Henri's schedule, but Henri pushes forward to take the team up on their offer and the group arranges time in the future for the holodeck.
