Ronin Shoreleave Archive: Difference between revisions

At the beginning of leave, a few people went shopping: [[Valis|Ensign Valis]] bought a baby grand piano and a violin (just like Sherlock Holmes'!) and [[Kolk, Jackford|Kolk]] took Parker to the [[DS17_Deck_Allocation|Promenade]] on an anti-grav cart. Later in the [[The_Twilight's_Edge|Twilight's Edge]], [[Walker, Benjamin J.|Walker]] and [[Adair, Ronan Tully|Adair]] got married, [[Wilde, Danny|Wilde]] considered killing [[Kolk, Jackford|Kolk]], [[Ehlanii, Karynn|Ehlanii]] asked [[Rogers, William|Rogers]] to guard [[Kolk, Jackford|Kolk]], [[Quay, Kassa|Quay]] got upset because she wasn't asked to do it, [[Idril Mar|Mar]] told [[Kolk, Jackford|Kolk]] to watch out and sidetracked Wilde just after a floosy woman tried to flirt with him and failed miserably. In another bar, a drunk man bemoaned [[Adair, Ronan Tully|Adair]]'s unavailability by spouting lines from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakespeare| Shakespeare] to the chagrin of his friend Yorik. A cat named [[Feline, Max|Max]] (owned by [[Kolk, Jarod|Jarod Kolk]]) snuck onto the ''[[USS Ronin|Ronin]]'', got some milk (or was it something else?) and then made his way to the bridge to take over the galaxy. Back at the wedding, [[Quay, Kassa|Quay]] ran off, [[Ehlanii, Karynn|Ehlanii]] followed, they briefly argued, then [[Thelev, Jhen|Thelev]] followed. [[Quay, Kassa|Quay]] ran off again, [[Thelev, Jhen|Thelev]] followed her but got distracted by our new bartender [[Sarion]]. Kassa (the humanoid) tricked Quay (the symbiont), and then the joined pair ran into [[Rogers, William|Rogers]] after the wedding and talked the night away to start the next day off with a kiss. While they were doing that, [[Brice, Ethan|Brice]] and [[Ehlanii, Karynn|Ehlanii]] slipped out and had a romp on the station's nature deck. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, (er, I mean in [[The_Twilight's_Edge|Twilight's Edge]]), the wedding was nearly averted by Max starting a Red Alert in the Captain's Chair of the ''[[USS Ronin|Ronin]]'', but [[Walker, Benjamin J.|Walker]] chose to shirk his duty and pick the woman over his crew (the bastard), [[Parker, Addison|Parker]] and [[Kolk, Jackford|Kolk]] chatted with the comers and goers until only Reed was left, and then they left her too. On the ''[[USS Ronin|Ronin]]'', [[Wilde, Danny|Wilde]] collapsed on the bridge, got beamed to sickbay and went completely mad because the little [[Borg]] toy in his neck decided to pump him full of vindictive I-want-to-kill-[[Kolk, Jackford|Kolk]] nanites. [[Satscher, Vojana|Satscher]] pulled out some of the little [[Kolk, Jackford|Kolk]]-haters and played science tricks on them for the rest of the leave. [[Parker, Addison|Parker]] wanted [[Kolkm Jackford|Kolk]] to take her on a romp through the nature deck (or something like) but he was busy going insane, so he dropped her off at her quarters, started a fight with her, and ran off to hide under his desk instead.

The next morning, while Quay and Rogers were swapping spit, Maria made Kolk a nice breakfast and placed it next to him under the desk with a note. Kolk missed breakfast with Thelev and Parker, but Jhen missed it too and Parker didn't bother going because who wants to have breakfast with an insane, insensitive, I-want-to-be-Captain type when you can stay in bed? Instead, he called Ehlanii, who was having breakfast with Reed, and scheduled an emergency counseling session. Before the session, Reed pumped Ehlanii for details about her impromptu date with Brice, discovering what she'd feared: Ehlanii didn't know about the wee one, Matthew Hollenbricedaleson. Kolk then got his head shrunk by Ehlanii while Reed scheduled dinner with Brice and Ehlanii, planning to stand them both up so they'd fall in love and make everyone feel sappy. Reed's evil plan worked, but not before Kolk realized he missed his mum and didn't want all his friends to die and, after that epiphany, ran off to the holosuites to play Captain Kolk of the ''USS Enterprise'' (NCC-1701) and wrestle Kirk-style with an Atollian Fangor Beast. Quay and Brice also had breakfast, where they each nearly found out that the other had met a special someone the night before. Then Mar threw a small briefing party for Thelev, Brice, and Wayfel (the token Andorian NPC who makes sure Thelev doesn't think he's the token) and told them that it was a bring-your-own-supplies-to-last-us-ten-years party, so they had to leave and get the supplies. Brice called Kolk and asked his input on how best to do it, and Kolk said, "Let's get the important stuff," to which Brice said, "Why didn't I think of that?"
