Back Aboard

Just what has been going on?

Data and I have just returned to the Enterprise after our shuttlecraft visit, and Ten Forward is a complete mess.

I've just found La Forge unconcious under a table.

I ask the computer where I can find Riker.

"Commander Riker is in Counselor Troi's quarters" it says. I've never been able to figure out why our computer sounds so much like Lwaxana Troi. Maybe I'll find out someday.

As I approach Troi's quarters, Riker and Deanna come out laughing, both with their hair ruffled. What has been going on?

"Number One, what has happened to the Enterprise? The crew seem be walking around in a daze holding their heads in despair."

"Er, there was a lot of turbulence last night, Captain, The ship hit a space storm that shook us all badly. Last night was a very eventful night."

Deanna Troi giggles for no apparent reason.

We visit the SickBay, where there is a long line of crewmembers being treated by Beverly. She looks like she's suffered from the turbulence, as she groans and feels her backside in pain.

"Ow!!" she says, and uses a tranquiliser on herself.

"That space storm was bad, last night, Dr Crusher" Riker calls to her.

For a moment she looks a little bewildered, probably from the tranquiliser. Then Beverly sees me and agrees.

As the crew recover, I go back to my ready room to relax. Everything seems tidy, despite the space storm.

I wonder why?

Perhaps the crew kindly put everything back before I arrived.

They really are a considerate group.

Robin, we are explorers. We enjoy visiting new places.

Diego, wild parties are not allowed on the Enterprise. What an odd question.

Captain Picard,

To do this to you, I hate, but, tagged with a Screaming Meme you are. Tag, it you are. No tag backs. Safe, on base I am. Called it I have.

See my blog for details you can.

Sorry about this, I am.

Yes, if you ever do find out what's up with the sound of the computer...let me know.

You can reach me in the real world.

Jean-Luc Picard said...

Angel, you don't think Riker is trying to fool me, do you?

Yoda, I will be beaming over shortly.

Trinity, are you sure you're living in the real world?

Trinity13 said...

Well, I did take the red pill.

Jen said...

Yes, it sounds as if your crew is VERY considerate. It just goes to show what a true leader you are...

I'm enjoying your journal.
