Captain's log: Alcohol onboard

deaftravis05deaftravis05 Member Posts: 4,885 Arc User
Captain's log, stardate whatever;

One of the greatest perks of being a Fleet Admiral that has fought on the front lines and the hero that ended the wars, is that I pretty much get to do whatever I want to do.

Within Federation law, of course.

Now I have a Ferengi officer on my bridge. I have a few Klingons on my staff. They're awesome Klingons. Sure they sing really loud, but you know why they're so awesome? *giggles* They know where to get real alcohol. Oh sure I got access to Bajoran Springwine, I have acres and acres. Did I tell you I have acres and acres of grapes needed to make the wine?

*gulping*

*burps*

Where was I?

Right, Git. She's a fine officer and so useful. Now don't you get any ideas! That's what the Vulcan holograms are for! She's effective at getting me fine Whisky from Earth and the finest samples of Federation alcohol without Starfleet Command catching wind of the fact that there's alcohol on my ship and it flows as well as bloodwine on a bird of prey!

*sounds of cheering in the background*

The zombies don't drink and neither do the Jem'Hadar. It's a good thing there's only one of each onboard! Hahahaha... ohh.... Right, the Vulcans I have onboard... They don't approve. But at least they don't stand there and stare while we get smashed. Garak'Llar just stands there and stares... The zombie whines a lot. Apparently if they get drunk, they revert to their host's... pshco... pshhyyo... whatever they act like their host before they died. Then they whine, moan and try to kill themselves.

Now why are we smashed you ask? That was the question my senior Vulcan bridge officer asked me as I pour my third, or is it the fourth? bottle of this Canadian whisky? Well, we just killed our 10,000th Tholian this morning! Its crystaline skull adorns my ready room!

Pesky Tholians, they constantly attack us when we don't need it. They never tell us why they're stirring up trouble. They just come in here, issue demands, shoot at us, drop like flies and we add notches to the armory wall. The armory wall! Lots of Borg notches there too!

That's why it's so great to be a Fleet Admiral. All the booze we want, Starfleet Command ignores it as long as we keep the Tholians on the run, the Borg dead and the Tal Shair occupied. I pity those new starfleet captains... with their... synthale.

Now where's that holographic Vulcan?

    So if people complain about being a fleet admiral... remember the perks of being one.

    Meanwhile, aboard the U.S.S. Little Paradise, Dreadnought Cruiser. Captain Dareau, Commanding, Personal Flagship of Fleet Admiral Julin Eurthyr's "fabled" Jello Echelon...

    Dareau: "Admiral, reports are coming in from the fleet that certain... officers... are taking liberties with alcoholic beverages."
    Eurthyr: skims deaftravis05's report "So, it's not like they're doing it... brazenly..." sips from a 'real' martini while watching the "Jello Wrestlers" - the "elite" morale team assigned to the Little Paradise practice their craft... "And it's not like we have racked up the synthale bill. Speaking of which, did we clear Commander Johan's request for those spare pipes yet? I hear he doesn't quite have engineering looking like that 'monstrosity' from those JJ Abrams 'documentaries'..."
    Dareau: "Why yes. And they say the... liquid... those pipes are producing are of a masterful quality. Valerin, bless her Vulcan soul, won't touch the stuff but helps make sure that no... impurities... enter the batches.
    Oh, that Andorian Freighter we 'examined' last week? They're about to open the last case of brandy that was aboard her."
    Eurthyr: "Blasphemy. Seal that crate in my personal storage room. We need that for our next celebration."
    Detecting big-time "anti-old-school" bias here. NX? Lobi. TOS/TMP Connie? Super-promotion-box. (aka the two hardest ways to get ships) Excelsior & all 3 TNG "big hero" ships? C-Store. Please Equalize...

    Are you sure you're a Starfleet admiral? Mounting the heads of your enemies, especially sentient creatures, in your ready room sounds a lot more like Klingon style.

    Your ship sounds fun.

    When Starfleet Command sends me on thousands of missions to kill Borg, Klingons, Romulans, Dominion, Undine and blah blah blah... I tend to start appreciating Klingon art.

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    Wait. A git is useful?

    Like Artan said, some of those BOFFs have odd names. Yes I do have a Ferengi named Git. It makes things easy.
  • lindalefflindaleff Member Posts: 3,734 Arc User
    The vast majority of Ferengi are gits anyway.

    I'm a Yank, so I'm unfamiliar with this term. What exactly is a "git"? I know it's an insult, but not what it entails . . . Also, is it pronounced with a hard or a soft "g"?

    Idiot, moron, fool, pillock. It's pronounced as in 'git over here now'. It can sometimes be pronounced 'get'.​​

    You need to imagine it with a British accent, so "git." For example, "Oh! This git wants to have a barney at me?"

    Also: Having a barney means you want to fight. But anyway, those particular words are a British thing.
