[There's the sound of twigs snapping and the grass moving as a new arrival makes his way through the woods. Stumbles a bit, and then the sound of hitting something hard comes over the journal. Presumably, it's a tree.]

...who the hell decided to put a forest here? I'm going to be feeling that one in the morning...

[shuffling around...]

Yes, the damn ship!

[voice]

[canyonsiniowa]

What the hell do you think, Cadet? How the hell are you talking to me - I don't have my communicator.

[voice]

[slaying]

...You know someone with pointed ears? That's...quirky.

[She's getting a hold on this journal thing.]

[voice]

[canyonsiniowa]

[voices from no where...]

Who doesn't? Come on. What kind of rookie question is that?

[voice]

[slaying]

Well, I suppose I might have encountered some pointy-eared beings in my lifetime but...

[she trails, poking at the book some more]

But I didn't think knowing someone with strange ears qualified as non-rookie-making experience.

[canyonsiniowa]

Unless you've been living in a backwater planet all your life, ma'am, it's hard not to miss the pointed-ear bastards walking around.

Hn. Yet another new one.

So what does a phaser do?

[canyonsiniowa]

New one---okay. What is going on here? Everyone has a phaser, it's a standard issue. Bones - you can hear me, can't you?

It's not funny.

[voice]

[wishes_eternal]

Wherever you were or think you are--you're not. Obviously.

[canyonsiniowa]

--Excuse me?

[ripperpounce]

Mya?

[canyonsiniowa]

..."mya"?

Who brought a cat on board the ship?

[ripperpounce]

Hey, I'm not a cat!

[canyonsiniowa]

You went "mya", you're a cat.

[chie_not_chuck]

Phaser? ... Federation shirt?

[canyonsiniowa]

That is what I said.

[chie_not_chuck]

That sounds so geeky.

[canyonsiniowa]

It's protocol, not "geeky."

Rank and name.
