The boy has finally settled down in his sleep patterns, doesn't help me much but it's better now that he's sleeping from around 8pm till around 4am.
 
I'd like to come back now that I have a little time on my hands and try to fit back in.
 
As I recall I was working on rewiring the ship and painting the captians cabin a brilliant shade of HAWT PINK!

Hi there Derek! Glad to here your son is starting to sleep mostly through the night. That's a big step.
I'd like to come back now that I have a little time on my hands and try to fit back in.

OOC: I just sent a post to the list with a To Do list as a reminder. You can use that to "refresh" your memory if needed. You or Greg need to start off the meeting in the Crew's Lounge, so everyone can get their orders for the day. Right?

Thought so. :)
Okay, let's see...
1) The ship is lifting from the Imperial Starport down to Port Parlek, a couple of thousand klicks away from where you are, to deliver freight for Brown & Sons. Port Parlek is a much more "open" port where you can probably get much better deals for your cargo.
2) Dr. Robert Solaski, of the University of Aki, wants his freight delivered to Dibpo Island which is way out in the ocean. He is paying a nice bonus for you making this delivery. Dibpo is one of many islands in an undeveloped archipelago. If the ship doesn't detour to Dibpo on the way to Parlek, you'll need to ferry the freight in a big air/raft. In fact, it might be better to rent such an air/raft at Port Parlek and ferry the freight and Solaski out to Dibpo from there. If you take an or a rented Ship's Boat, you might need to take several (if not all) of the crew alone to help. Someone should consult with Dr. Solaski on this. You might also want to look up Dibpo Island on the local data nets and see what you can find out about it.
3) Lord Percy had expressed an interest in deep sea fishing, but I think that is mostly Paris trying to find something to keep Percy out of trouble...and her hair. Given the other items on the ToDo list you might want to postpone the "fishing trip" and combine it with item 2.
4) There is one grav module that is still acting up with an unknown problem and there is some rewiring that needs to be done...mainly for security purposes.

Paris had baking to do, along with preparing for her evening out with Sasha.
Des was going to be working on the primary power conduit and retuning the gravity compensators after getting money for parts from Paris.
Merinn was going to be working on the power control regulator for the gravity compensators.
Bart had promised to take His Nibbs fishing for the big'uns, them sea-monsters, out in the ocean.
Sasha and Sharda were going to be working with both Kllian & Sons, Brown Brokers and Robert Solaski about the freight deliveries and beginning negotiations for outbound cargo. Killian and Sons are arranging for the locals to download and transship their goods first thing in the morning; Brown from Brown Brokers said day after today, however, if we can get the stuff to him over at Parlek Port, he'll pop for another 2k on his payment. Solaski, on the other hand, want his stuff delivered, unopened, to his project site at Piazia.
Doc has 850 creds from the successful and complete defrostation without loss of all the low pax we'd toted this far.

Paris shook her head, then puffed an errant lock of dark auburn hair out of her eyes as she placed a platter of fresh, steaming cinnamon rolls on the table next to the pot of coffee. Smoothing the shortie robe beneath her, she took a seat opposite Merinn and said, "That I don't know, the Captain didn't mention it to me, but I would think sometime this afternoon."
She gave a smile. "Depends on when we can also get flight clearance for a surface-to-surface jump."

Paris shook her head in amusement. "He was himself, drinking into a stupor and..."
She loosened the top of her robe, exposing cleavage, which she examined critically. Resecuring the robe, the steward said, "No noticable damage, so I assume he didn't grab anythng he shouldn't." She winked at Merinn. "I agree, I've grown to be happier in space than on the ground..."
Leaning across the table, Paris placed one hand gently on the back of Merinn's hand. "That's not what you were talkng about--what happened last night?"

Another hand-pat, a sympathetic and compassionate one. "Poor sweetie," she said, her tone caring rather than condescending, "there'll be someone out there, sooner or later, and if not at this port then the next..."

Paris gave a squeeze, then released as...
The comm buzzes. Someone answers it...
...someone named Paris. "Akus Moby, Ship's Steward," she announces, her tone utterly business-like.

"Yes, thank you," Paris replied, "We will have crew present and ready for downloading and inventory within the next fifteen." She gave a wave and an over-the-shoulder thumb to Merinn and a silent, "Go get Bart, you and him..." She pointed towards the cargo hold.
Cutting the transmission, she made sure her words were aloud. "Please get Bart and if the two of you--and Lady Shaarda too, please--I'll get..."

As soon as she cut the line, she was off with a swirl of silken robe and bare feet padding on the deck at a high rate of speed; Paris swooped into the cabin she shared with Sasha; she yanked the blankets off the bed and smacked his bared ass with the flat of her palm even as her own robe went flying towards the small chair in the corner.
"Get your ass out of bed, Sasha, Brown just commed and wants a damn decision, you slacker!" she announced hurriedly, even as she pulled her blouse over her head. "Let's go, let's go let's go, and Killian's due here in fifteen, got Merinn getting Bart and Shaarda onnit, and there's fresh coffee, so move it, move it move it!"

"What, you need me now? Since when? You've got a thumbprint too!" He grins. "Yes, we'll head out Brown's way and make that delivery. 'Specially after 's (OOC: Kathy Urquart) information last night!"
He looks for, finds and climbs into his shipsuit. Grabs his 'Lunion Fusion' hat to hide his unruly hair.
"Probably get better cargoes moving onward too. And don't you forget to eat!" he calls to her disappearing back. Boots sealed, suit zipped high enough, he heads out to get coffee and the pastries he knows are waiting.
The coffee and pastries *are* there. OOC: I'm not sure if Dez is there or has disappeared 'tween decks. I'm also not sure who else is there...anyone?
Krikor tubes up the local weather, headlines, and drops a request into the queue for point to point lift and flight path. "Try not to wake our passenger yet."
Local weather for Lorton: Clear to partly cloudy with afternoon rain showers. High of 26, low of 20.
Headlines: The big news is...The execution of the convicted Luddite, Edwin Meadows, is scheduled for 1800 in Lorton central square. This event will be broadcast on all vid channels and archived on the network. Viewing of the execution by all citizens of The People's Republic of Lorton aged 18 or greater, either live or archived, is mandatory and must be done by 1800 of 19/1112. Those failing to show proof of their "doing their duty" will face arrest and five years at hard labor for failing to show proper support for the State.
2) A short vid clip of First Citizen Marcus Allred, President, for life, of the People's Republic of Lorton is shown. Allred is a tall, thin man of about 50. He is graying at the temples and has a hawkish nose splitting a thin face. He is giving a rousing speech to an enthusiastic crowd about what appears to be the opening of a desalinization plant...although, he seems to stray from the desalinization plant to denouncing the Anti-technologists of the Sea League from time to time. You notice that a large number of the people in the audience are wearing uniforms of one kind or another...as is First Citizen Allred.
3) A large hurricane has cut off communication with several islands in the Yalno Ocean...great damage and loss of life might have taken place. The commentators strongly imply that these islands wouldn't have had this happen to them if they weren't pawns of the Anti-technologists while adding that elements of the People's Defense Forces are on their way to add these poor unfortunates.
4) A short vid of Lord Harry Margolos, 12th Earl of Orvernale, is shown. Lord Margolos is seen touring a farm north of Parlek and then shaking hands with First Citizen Allred's hand as the pair take a tour through an industrial facility. There is a big contrast between the tall, handsome, Allred and the shorter, much rounder, Margolos...you can't be sure, but it looks to you like camera angles and focus effects have been used to heighten the differences between these two leaders, to Allred's benefit.
Flight plan request: You call the Imperial Starport Administration office and get Kathy Urquart on the line. After greeting you and thanking you for the news of the sub-sector you gave last night she tells you that you can get a lift window at 1430, and that she will inform Parlek Port to expect you incoming...oh, and their channel on the satellite network is 103.4...ask for Andy or Corsa, and tell whom ever you get that Kathy U sends her regards.

There is indeed an incredibly filthy very hungry engineer sipping on a coffee and nibbling a pastry being very careful not to touch anything with her clothes or hands.
