Dundee: Nah, Nah, I'm good mate. Just send me down. Given that fancy Pad over there, I'm guessing I gotta step on that.
"We have no tomorrow, but there's still hope for the future. In our struggle to survive the present, we push the future farther away. Will I see it in my lifetime? Probably not. Which means there's no time to waste. Someday the world will no longer need us. No need for the gun, or the hand to pull the trigger." -Punished Snake
*the feline nods and waits for dundee to step on the pad, then beams him down to the resort boardwalk as soon as he does* (beam-in is obviously where players show up when they beam down to risa)

"It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch." "We said 'no' to Mr. Curiosity. We're not home. Curiosity is not welcome, it is not to be invited in. Curiosity...is bad. It gets you in trouble, it gets you killed, and more importantly...it makes you poor!"

Dundee: *looks around, taking it all in* this is gonna be just like Sydney. Isnt it? Some kinda tourist trap. Kinda reminds me of Bondi beach

*the risian tour guide lady that most STO players tend to ignore walks up to dundee and greets him in typical risian fashion (because i have no forking clue) and offers him a map/event schedule/activity guide, advising him that if he has any further questions about the lohlunat festival to seek out any of the natives and they will gladly answer his questions, finally wishing him a pleasant stay on risa before moving off to greet another new arrival*
(i mean...you know how risa works and cryptic actually manages to explain things reasonably well for once in regards to the activities and things, so i don't actually need to go into detail, i hope?)

*as he looks over the boardwalk, a powerboard race is just finishing and several people come zooming though the finish line amid wild cheers from various humans, humanoids and alien species, including several of the ones he's already seen aboard the ursini...and just beyond the finish line hovering out over the deeper portion of the lagoon is an absolutely MASSIVE vessel* (because as i remembered, last year was the vogon minelayer since we're still in 2418, not 19 yet)

*the speaker is a feline similar to the one in the transporter room, but this one has chocolate-colored fur with an almost skull-like white facepaint pattern across his muzzle and a long tail ending in a puff, almost like a lion's tail - and his uniform is completely different from those the imperium wears, being that of a starfleet engineering division sierra-type (i forget which) and bearing the starfleet delta commbadge across his left chest - though, naturally dundee likely wouldn't know which faction this uniform belongs to*

*the caitian raises an eyebrow - or what passes for one on his species* i am rear admiral rak'shasa of starfleet - i would think this would have quickly given it away *he motions to the aforementioned starfleet delta badge* there aren't many places in the explored regions of the galaxy who haven't at least heard of us in passing by now

rak'shasa: right...*he says, clearly not believing the odiously drunken human* well, you may wish to freshen up a little before you begin any of the activities here - showers and restrooms are that way *he points in the appropriate direction* enjoy your vacation *he then sets off for a nearby changing hut* (i don't know if they actually have bathrooms/rinse showers like the ones you see at beaches for cleaning sand and other debris off yourself...but they do here)
