[Ten Forward]: Rooming Assignments | Round #15

[ten_fwd_npcs]

Now that Dr. Crusher's medical team has cleared a sizable number of new passengers for ship-wide access comes a big day for them: the day they receive their official introduction to the Enterprise. It starts with a tour of the ship and some background to the situation, delivered by Chief O'Brien.

The tour covers the main areas of the ship, and a history of recent events, Q-inspired and otherwise.

Once the tour has wrapped up, it normally falls on Worf's shoulders to assign the new arrivals quarters and instruct them on the correct behavior and protocols needed for life aboard the Enterprise. They have been gathered together in Ten Forward, and are awaiting further instructions on how to proceed. Unfortunately, Worf is still unavailable, and so instead it falls on Lt. Junior Grade Baldwin’s shoulders to do so, just as it did last month.

As he has done this before, Baldwin has a speech prepared:

"The computer will instruct you on where all cleared-for-access decks are. You only have to ask where the area you are trying to get to is located, and it will give you clear directions. Do not visit any restricted areas. The bridge, engine rooms, transporter rooms, and all command centers are off-limits.

"With that in mind, there are a few rules you must obey before I give you your new assignments. One, do not discharge any weapon while on the Enterprise. Two, do not assault any other passenger aboard in any way; that includes injury, death, or violating their personal rights. Three, do not tamper with the operational procedures of the ship. Four, do not steal items or technology from the ship. Five, do not interrupt any official areas of the ship without proper authorization, and do not invade the privacy of other guest or crew quarters.

"Copies of the Prime Directive will be made available to all of you, and placed in each room. As you are not Starfleet officers, you are not obligated to abide by this rule; however, it is important you understand why we do.

Looking down at the safety of his PADD, he says, "Room assignments are as follows," before reading off the list of quarters, their location, and the guests who will be sharing them.

"I will remain here to answer questions," Baldwin says, managing to keep the reluctance out of his voice. "And the rest of the Security team will be standing by to escort you where you need to be."

The list is also displayed on a PADD, where people can refer to it if they need to.


[ooc: Open log for building CR with new roommates and meeting neighbors, "party post" style! Rooms are aligned the way they would be in a typical hotel: odd numbers on the left, even numbers on the right (so 0711 and 0713 will be next door neighbors, while 0712 is directly across the hall). There is a post in the OOC comm where players can connect with questions and find more details about the rooms themselves, so check in over there. If you need to ask security questions, or need them to swing by another thread, just put "Security officer, please!" in the subject line of your tag, and the mods will send someone to you ASAP. The tour given by Chief O'Brien is not open for tagging; you can assume your character had any basic questions answered. ]

"That's kind of really weird. At least it gets darker as he gets older." No one in their family needed to be platinum blonde. Prue was content to blame Leo's side of the family. Leo himself had lighter hair than she and her sisters did, after all.

Okay that particular confession was not what she'd expected. Wyatt was leading the demons. A look of confusion crossed her face as she tried to digest that. So Wyatt went evil? Well, it wasn't like Prue hadn't experienced herself and/or her sisters being turned evil by various demons and the like now and then to try and turn the power of the Charmed Ones to be evil. So she knew the Halliwells weren't infallible on their alignment towards good. But to actually hear that her nephew turned evil and is leading demons painted an extremely bleak picture.

"That...is definitely not something I expected. I would expect something happened to us Charmed Ones that we couldn't stop everything from happening?" Though she didn't really need to ask it. Prue could already one or more of her and her sisters were dead. Piper would never let her child turn evil without doing everything in her power to save them, and Prue and Phoebe would do the very same. Even if it would result in their deaths, they would do everything they could for their family.

Chris just looked at his aunt Prue. He didn't want to have to go into the gruesome details about the war zone in which he grew up. So, he just said "Yeah, you could say that. Something happened to the Charmed Ones all right. It was a gradual thing. Wyatt turning evil. You don't really notice it as a child, but it's there, until you can't ignore it anymore."

Chris gave a shrug. "Wyatt was born in the house. Like Phoebe, he's got more of a capacity to sway between good and evil, like the nexus. I on the other hand was born at San Francisco Memorial."

"It's the worst when someone is changing gradually like that. You never really see it until it's too late." Unless they're given the benefit of a time travel spell that would allow them to see what would happen in the future if they didn't fix something in the present. But that was something that was dangerous to play with. Altering events too often would no doubt screw up the natural order of things.

"Ah, that would explain that." Prue knew about that, knew that Phoebe was commonly seen as the weaker one of the Charmed Ones. Of course, she didn't know as much about the swaying between good and evil the way Chris would. After all, a lot of things happened between the time she was from and the time Chris was from. "Not everyone can fight darkness within them like that. But I would imagine we all did what we could to stop it once it became apparent what was happening." Which clearly had resulted in some of them dying. Really, it didn't take a rocket scientist for Prue to make that connection. She just wasn't putting herself in the category of having died, nor was she assuming she died long before any of that happened.

Chris shook his head. "Everyone did what they could. By the time anyone realized what was wrong it was much to late to do anything. That's why I went back. To make things right." Chris looked at his Aunt Prue for a moment.

"Wait, I did tell you that right? That I went back in time to change it?Let me tell you, if you ignore Wyatt taking over everything, the Manor hasn't really changed that much. I mean, all your spell ingredients are in the same place for years. I can't believe that never clued Mom in--how I knew where everything was."

He shrugged.
