[Ten Forward]: Rooming Assignments + Holiday Open House!

Hmmm, something seems a little different about the Chief of Security today. His beautifully ridged countenance hasn't been seen for quite some time at the head of one of these little initiations, but now that Dr. Crusher's medical team has cleared a sizable number of new cattle for ship-wide access, and they've been carted around by Chief O'Brien on a tour of the ship, along with some background to the situation they now find themselves in, they've been mooooved right along to Lieutenant Worf in Ten Forward.

He looks at his data PADD, with all of his boring instructions and tedious details meticulously written out, and rolls his eyes. Rules, really? What harm could these people really do?

"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, command centers, blah, blah-blah, blah blah, are all off-limits.

"Before you're assigned a room, there are a few rules you must obey, though I honestly don't know what could be done to stop you. 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, good grief, this list just goes on forever, doesn't it?

"They want you to read the Prime Directive?! Boring. If you care to see that drivel you can look it up on your own personal PADDs, which will be available in every room. Now, how about something more interesting?"


With a flick of his wrist, the PADD disappears. Cracking his knuckles, "Worf" proceeds to snap his fingers and a flurry of snow whooshes through the room. When the proverbial dust settles, Ten Forward has been decked out in an array of holiday cheer. The windows are frosted, the bar is dusted in snow, a model train choo-choos its way around people's ankles out one door and back in the other. There is a traditional Earth tree in one corner with an endless pile of gifts stacked under it, but other worlds, cultures, and religions have not been left out. Everywhere one looks, there's a different kind of festive decoration.

"La, dee dum, dum," Worf hums, snapping his fingers again and causing a spread of food and drinks to appear on each and every table and surface: candies, cakes, mulled wines, chocolates, pheasants, yams, bol'ghba, and an abundance of other unpronounceable delicacies. "There. Now isn't that better? Never say I didn't do anything for you.

"Oh! That's right, the rooms," he recalls, clapping his hands. He pulls the PADD back out of the ether, reading off the list of quarters, their location, and the guests who will be sharing them.

Deck 07, Section 4
Room # 0713 - Kristen Kringle and Kuvira
Room # 0731 - Olan'atar and Sophia Inks
Room # 0737 - Bonnie Barstow and KITT (hologram)
Room # 0746 - Sterling Archer and Kira

Deck 8
Room # 0147 - T'Pol and Katniss Everdeen

Deck 9
Room # 0919 - Henry Mills and Matt Murdock
Room # 0921 - Pete Lattimer and Clara Oswald


"Now, won't that be fun?" Worf concludes, with a large, toothy grin. "Remember, it's only fun until Captain Picard has a heart attack, and then your actions are all on your own heads. Oh! Speaking of heads ... "

With one last snap, the Lieutenant in full dress before them morphs into what appears to be a Caucasian human male. No vestiges of the Klingon remain, and as such the man now lets out a long, grateful sigh. "It's good to be home."

For the foreseeable future, Ten Forward will remain in this state, and the doors to the guest quarters will stay open so each new arrival along with the old faithful can experience the full joy and beauty of the holiday season with each other. The corridors are all covered in frost, a pleasant nip in the air, and over the internal comms a song begins to play. The list of new assignments is also displayed on a PADD in Ten Forward, where people can refer to it if they need to.




[ooc: Happy Holidays, at least for the next few days! This log is both a party post for holiday shenanigans and an open log for new roomies (or old ones!) to build CR and meet their neighbors. We'll have a few special holiday top levels for gifts, but otherwise you can tag directly into the post with your character, their room number, and who they're looking for (or leave it OTA)!

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's a post in the OOC comm for OOC questions and comments! 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. ]

Matt Murdock: OTA

Matt wasn't much of a party person. They were a bit too noisy and smelly and he always had a lead to chase down or a case he was getting ready for. But he didn't have that option anymore, so here he was sipping eggnog and looking around for someone to talk to.

The soft (yet slightly unsteady) click of kitten heels could be heard along with a slight whiff of vanilla and leftover cardboard box. "Feels like an office party but a different scale." Kristen observed while death gripping her tea.

Matt smiles."I've never been to an office Christmas party so I wouldn't know," he admits, "doesn't seem so bad right now thought."

"Right now its not bad, granted my head is still spinning since all this is new ground." Kristen offered. She added,"My name's Kristen."

Matt smiled. "It's new ground for me too. I'm a New York boy born and bred. Space was something pretty for me to look at when I was a kid and that's it. I'm Matt."

"Got snagged here from Gotham City myself." Kristen offered. "So space this close up is totally new for me too." she mused. "But at the same time its an adventure abet a really unexpected one."

"Gotham," Matt says sounding puzzled, "I don't think I know where that is?"

"Its about a two or so hour train from New You City if that helps any?" Kristen offered. "But at the same time I'm not shocked not many know about it given where we are." she added.

"Or our universes are different and Gotham doesn't exist in mine but not in yours," Matt says thoughtfully.

"That whole idea alone is spooky." Kristen admits. "The idea of a place like Gotham not being in other universes but from what I have seen so far its more than modern time periods being pulled here too." she offered.

Aidan hadn't been to a party in years, but he liked people enough to not complain about this one. He hadn't met many people onboard, despite being here a few months, so any chance to socialize was one he'd take. And tonight he had the knee-high robot dragon he pulled out of Q's Santa hat to come with him everywhere. Its gears and joints quietly moved as Aidan approached, glass of champagne in hand. Too much time in his Holodeck lab meant he probably smelt of cordite and smoke.

"Have you been onboard very long?" he asked once he was close enough.

Matt takes in the various scents and sounds of the person approaching him and shakes his head. "No. A week or two at the most," he said, "providing I'm reading time right around the ship." He takes a moment to adjust his stance and aim his hand at what he's judged is the right height shake this persons hand. "Matt Murdock."

That handshake will feel weird since Aidan only has his thumb and index finger on the right side. Where his others should be is smooth, well-healed scar tissue.

"Aidan Nichols. I've been here about two and a half months since I was barely settled when Halloween happened."

Matt noticed the scar tissue first and smiles slightly but not in an unkind way. He sees the man as a friend and someone who will understand what he's going through. "Must have been rough the change," he says, "my senses got pretty damn scrambled when I first arrived."

"It takes a little bit to get used to the fact that anything you could ever want is just a request away and any place you can imagine can be simulated. Near perfection is just weird. I can only guess how much harder it is for you to get oriented in a new place." He had friends with various disabilities in college because they all used the same testing center.
