4-27-14: Subspace Transmissions in the Aftermath of the Undine Attack

((For any one-off subspace transmissions to or from your characters, crew members, bridge officers, etc, in the aftermath of the Undine attack.))
"Dip! Y' thar?"

The woman was way too close to the camera- forcing it to meld in and out of focus as the view struggled maintain a crisp image despite her constant motion. Her eyes were narrowed, pupils dilated, the whites streaked red and underscored by dark exhaustion beneath.

"Argo ge' 'it? They gah ESD damned good. Y' 'ear fruh Dos? 'e was on ESD- Ah'm in Sol- Jupi'er. Shippin' supplies. Dip, y' better bloody well answer meh righ' naw or I'mma make a necklace outter them ears o' yers."

She ran her fingers across her scalp as she leaned back, fluffing the muss of brown. Her demeanor, despite the rage-heavy accent, was relaxed, with all things considered. Still, she didn't seem to grasp the idea of a 'leaving a message'.

"Dip. Dip! Davin!"

She sat back up with the use of the man's real name, looming once more over the camera,

"They wun' lemme sign back up. Like they go' th' lux'ree o' bein' choosey. Ge' me ou' thar. Ah'll do anythin'. Navi, pilot, ground- Ah'll register as a bloody Rom cit'zen iffin I got'a. Jess ge' me ou' thar, Davin. Please."
Heavy Phaser and Undine Plasma bursts can be heard along with heavy static as a calm Vulcan voice is heard over the comm-system.

"This is Captain Fulagsu, Captain R'zo'Vek please-*tssssssht* Repeat, U.S.S. Toronto, please respond-*tssssst*


"*Kssssssht* This is Captain Areyis Fulagsu,-*KRABOOM*-*Krackilycrack* we are requesting -permission- from Argo Command to evacuate our position within the Delta Quadrant, it will be statistically impossible for us to defend this position, we must attempt to escape through the Gate. Please respond."
"Hello, yes, this one is trying to reach Lieutenant S'rrel, but-"

"Yes, ma'am, personal lines are disabled while SB 24 is in emergency status. Is this an official call?"

"Owh, no, no, this one was just worried, it is his mother, yes?"

"I'm sorry, ma'am, we ask that all friends and family hold their calls until after the emergency status has been lifted."

"Yes, yes, of course, this is prudent. Perhaps it could look up that Lieutenant S'rrel is...if he's been..."

"I..I'm so sorry, ma'am, even if I had that kind of information, I wouldn't be authorized to release it. We're still working on establishing basic functionality of the station. Once the emergency status is lifted, I'm sure the comms restrictions will be lifted."

"Owh. ...yes, thank you. Thank you. This one is glad it is safe, and is thankful for its diligence. Please to be careful, yes?"

"Yes ma'am, thank you."

"Mother! Hello."

"I'm so glad I got through! I've been trying for hours. Are you alright?"

"Yes. I don't have much time. Are you and father alright?"

"Yes, yes we're fine. We didn't even know. By the time we found out what was happening, it was all over. They didn't even come this way, those Undines."

"I'm glad."

"Have you heard from your brother?"

"No. His ship was back on the front in the Archanis Sector, as far as I-"

"Doctor, you're needed in the OR."

"On my way. I must go - I love you."

"I love you too! Be safe--"

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: test

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: test

T'Kela, Superintendent, SFA: The link is stable, Commander. My time is short; please be brief.

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: sorry

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: argo ships hit hard in attack

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: we're going to set up shop here

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: help as much as we can

T'Kela, Superintendent, SFA: Repair operations are fully within the limits originally set by me and Admiral Kelly. You do not need to spend our very limited time confirming your standing orders.

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: yeah

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: about those

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: argo CO had us in combat yesterday

T'Kela, Superintendent, SFA: Commander, you previously made it clear that you understood the Tyee was to avoid combat at all costs.

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: ye

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: but it w

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: it was a direct order

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: tell it to ashworth

T'Kela, Superintendent, SFA: I must remind you that you are merely on attachment to Task Force Argo and must still report to Admiral Kelly. His orders take precedence.

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: so get kelly

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: have him recall us

T'Kela, Superintendent, SFA: Admiral Kelly is undoubtedly preoccupied with the response to the attack on Sol space at this time. He cannot review every disgruntled appeal from ships deployed in remote sectors.

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: recall us while were buried in repair ops

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: that makes perfect sense

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: very logical

T'Kela, Superintendent, SFA: Calm yourself, Commander. You are attempting to sarcastically use a racial stereotype as an argument in favor of breaking your standing orders.

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: is it working?

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: ...

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: hello?

T'Kela, Superintendent, SFA: As I have no alternative suggestions given the extremity of the current situation, I can only recommend that you continue reporting to Commodore Ashworth failing any communications from Starfleet Command.

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: great i'll let him know

Jodahn, Dev, Cmdr, USS Tyee: thnks

T'Kela, Superintendent, SFA: And one more thing, Commander.

"...I understand you're upset SubCommander, but-"

"Upset!? [A heavy impact] I'm not even in the same galaxy as upset, Kererek!"

"That being the case, you can't expect me to seriously consider this."

"And why the hell not!?"

"You know the Federations policy on-"

"[Redacted] the Federation! You saw the Llieset's reports! Their ships are biological! You give me a compliment of torpedoes with thalaron warheads and this war can be over NOW! [Redacted], give them to the whole Floatilla! A fleet of ships with thalaron torpedoes and we wouldn't even be having this discussion!"

"We're not having this discussion, Davin. Do what you need to clear your head, then we'll talk. Kererek out."

TribbleFurr77: But it is quite safe, yes? It will not be requiring Trinthan to make an abrupt show of attendance on the Deep Space Thirteen? He would most certainly~ find no trouble in such a venture out, Starbase 515 has quite the calm atmosphere considering recent redeployment since the attack, requesting a position on a more endangered section would in no way be out of line and interfere with Zenus Engineering operations. Trinthan shall make preparations to beg-

Dr. Lindresko: No. I will not be requiring your attendance.

TribbleFurr77: Perhaps things are too much strain at current moment, perhaps? Because currently it is just coming across as rather silly! Have viewed and been reading the notifications as the communications came back online within the network… hmm~yes, most lucky the attack was not more fatal. Temporary assignment on Deep Space Thirteen considering its position would not in any circumstance effect-

Dr. Lindresko: No. I do not want-nor-need your presence here, and considering the work load and reports that are to be written your attendance would be an extreme annoyance and frankly would irritate me, perhaps even more so than my 32nd birth anniversary. Which would be quite a feat.

TribbleFurr77: Will Doctor let him finish? That had nothing to do with Trinthan, the Commander Bellep invited itself, along with the …. Other large number, ahaha~? It was not down to the fa-

Dr. Lindresko has gone offline.
