Welcome to the USS Washington-E!
Welcome to the USS Washington-E, a post-Dominion War sim. The year is 2386. The Dominion War has been over for several years, but its aftermath is still unfolding. The Federation and the Romulans are the only two major powers, and only the Federation is stable, to a point. The Klingon Empire is still rebuilding and addressing its many wounds from the war, Cardassia is in shambles and occupied, and the Romulans are in far worse shape because of their own misdeeds than they would have outsiders believe. The Federation is now the lone superpower in the Quadrant, a role it neither wants nor enjoys. Exploration has returned, but the dangers of space have never been more pronounced. Welcome to the USS Washington, where danger and adventure lurk around every corner.

Our mission seems to be moving to its climax, but we saw plenty of great posts surrounding this fun story in April. Below you will find the April winners, and as always, I congratulate them and wish them luck as they represent the ship at the fleet level.

The shortest month of the year is over, and we are moving into March and the greenery of Spring. Before things warm up and everyone starts looking to go outside again, we did have ourselves a good month of posting. Honestly, I think the month was dominated by Lt Kono, and the awards reflect that. That isn't to say other people didn't make contributions, she just had a much larger volume of material over anyone else. As the mission seems to be moving towards its climax in the main story, I think we'll see a lot more from everyone else…

"...they are preparing to fire" said Kuzma at Ops.
And Now the Continuation...
Kapowski and Lawrence looked at the Chief as he exited the Jeffries tube looking like he just did something he knew would get him in trouble. "Sorry to tell you Chief, but we can't beam down the supplies for a new reason now. The shields are up" Kapowski said dejected, the flashing red light and klaxon sounding providing the Chief with all the explanation he needed as to the situation.
"So it begins." Jon said quietly. before addressing Imik. "Fire phasers and torpedoes. target their engines and…

Viviana had been working on Janelle for over an hour before she completed her work and was able to declare her stable, although she remained in a coma. "Nothing more I can do here. But as long as we are rescued within the next 48 hours, there is still hope for a full recovery."
Shran nodded his understanding. "You've done well doctor. Sam would be proud. I think you deserve to take a rest."
Viviana swept the hair from her field of vision. "I'd like to argue, but I won't. But just a short rest, a siesta."
"Sounds good doctor"…

Jon continued to look at the alien ship in the middle of the viewscreen even as medical was working on getting the medical supplies to Sam on the planet below. Vaccines that could save the population from a devastating virus sweeping over it.
He looked to Callie, "Anything Callie?" Before he looked to Kuzma, "Hail that ship again."
Working silently, Imik continued to work with her sensors in an attempt to scan the alien vessel. She had to defeat both radiation and the alien sensors, and up to now that had proven difficult. In her mind she…

Shran stood on the beach with Viviana, Kate's nervous speech echoing from the treeline while Phoenix and Janelle made their way to the beach as well. Viviana had a look of fear washing over her; Shran had his phaser rifle at the ready. Kate had killed the one beast in the jungle, but two more were lying in wait on the beach, between the officers and the runabout. Shran hadn't taken these creatures for pack hunters, but it seemed that was the case, and that meant they had to deal with these two panther beasts, displacer beasts seemed appropriate, and…

Ashlynn paced her quarters swiftly. Actually, it had been roughly forty minutes; she wasn't paying attention to the time. She had heard the news about the crash a few days ago but she forced herself to focus on work and not the worst case scenario. She failed after a gallant effort of bottling up her true feelings.
She couldn't lose James. Not now, not when they had reunited only a few months ago now. She now knew how he felt when he couldn't do anything to help her when she was on the Saber held captive by her Mirror Universe…

OCC: Ben and Kate's Quarters.

Ben sat at the desk, he was idlily scratching Kodie's ears but his mind was elsewhere. He missed Kate.
IC:
"Personal Log. Lieutenant Ben Dalton. I miss Kate. I miss her terribly. I miss her exuberance, her sense of humor, her goodness. her quirkiness. I can say for a fact that absence does not make the heart grown fonder. It makes me miss her even more. Even Kodie misses her scratching his ears and stomach."
He paused and sighed before resuming his recording. "I know she is with the captain and others on a…

"Personal Log, Lieutenant JG James Phoenix.
This is a bit of a weird log. I haven't sat down to type one of these since my assignment at Deep Space Two. I never really needed to. I usually wait until I'm off duty and alone in my quarters. I suppose I'm just bored on this road-trip with my colleagues, and I don't want to bother them while I am keeping an eye on the Bahamut's tactical readouts.
We are returning to the Washington after an intelligence conference with the brass. I am honored that the Captain asked me to represent security…

Personal Log, Ensign Janelle Barett
I was selected for my first away mission today.
I knew it was coming, statistically at least. New ensign, operations background, limited planetside exposure. Eventually the numbers align. Still, when my name was spoken on the bridge, it felt unreal in a way training simulations never manage.
I do not think I smiled. I do not think I said anything unnecessary. I acknowledged the order, confirmed readiness, and did exactly what I have practiced doing for years.
Then I went to my quarters and stood there for a full minute doing absolutely nothing.
There is…

Personal log, Ensign Janelle Barett.
When I think back on my first night aboard the Washington, what stays with me is not the size of my quarters or the hum of the ship’s systems.
It is how quiet everything felt once the door closed.
The room was larger than my Academy quarters. Quieter, too. No voices through thin walls, no shared routines, only the steady, impersonal thrum of the ship, constant and unjudging. At the time, I told myself it was calming.
I remember standing there longer than necessary, posture still perfect, hands at my sides, as if waiting for…

Computer, start recording:-
I have now been on board for several days, still I have not seen nor reported to the Sinkahue or Grayson. My mind is much conflicted with these new orders from my High Command, just how they expect me to continue with my duties while remaining apart from all Federation personnel is something I at this time fail to see as possible.
It is almost as if they want this collaboration to collapse into failure, maybe the section of our Council which is pushing for us to end all contact with the Federation has finally turned the…
