alex: so...as soon as we get back, we're all hitting quark's - first round's on rakesh *he says over the general channel, prompting a very loud and rude reprisal from said wolf*
matt: i did - that's why i asked...can't wait to get blackout drunk at quark's - i can't believe we actually got through a mission without getting shot at once
*matt stares down* hai *the crimson fang, conundrum, cuchulainn and every other cloak-capable ship there does so and follows after the exeter* (and it only took 5 weeks of what should've been a 2-week mission to get started back to DS9)
great! i can't wait to start teaching young aliens to despise and kill based on the color of their skin/fur/scales/whatever, their sexual preferences, their religion or their choice of hobby
(that won't work - you have to wave chocolate under her nose...like this) *matt silently pads up behind briana and waves a chocolate bar under krystal's nose* *the conundrum fires a probe at the defense grid, and as expected, several satellites break off to chase it, leaving a big enough gap to fly through*
or it could just mean they use the NX designation multiple times instead of using it as a catch-all for EVERY experimental ship so while their warp 4 testbed failed 325 times, the warp 5 one managed to succeed on the first try
