Three hours to shore leave and _tom_paris is no where to be found. On top of it all, harrykim is going to spend his time with Seven_of_nine. (Yeah, right, he has no romantic interest in Seven at all).

chakotay has suggested we go hiking. He's getting a group of people together and if I don't see Tom in the next 2 hours, 59 minutes and 59 seconds, I'll take chakotay up on his offer.

Well, the experiment with the slipstream drive did not work, and after a minor quarrel with seven_of_nine, chakotay has given me the day offI've been reviewing some of the LJ logs and have noticed the Enterprise crew is due for shore leave. I believe our crew could use some as well. Specifically, I would love to have just four or five days to myself when I can go over ( Read more... )

I'm really tired and shouldn't even be awake right now, but I'm very disappointed. After all of the planning, the work, the celebration, to have it come down to *this* -- a crucial miscalculation that *Tom* found, of all people -- well, I don't even know *how* to explain what I'm feeling right now ( Read more... )

I just have a few minutes. I sent seven_of_nine to regenerate and Joe Carey to get some food from the mess hall. Both of them looked absolutely exhausted, but I'm pleased to report we've made good progress on the slipstream drive.

The technology, the theory, the methodolgy is absolutely sound. I've checked my calculations at least twenty times and in theory, ( Read more... )

_tom_paris_, my quarters. Now.

We've located the planetoid where the Delta Flyer went down. The debris is scattered all around and it doesn't look good. However, I have yet to see pieces of the main fuselage. If that's intact, then there may a good chance the Away team survived the landing.

It just doesn't look good. Plasma fires are everywhere ( Read more... )

When _tom_paris_ gets back here, I have half a mind to kill him myself for making me worry.

After that dinner he promised me, of course.

For the record, an engineer's place is in Engineering. I am fine and I have a job to do. Is that clear?
