Hello, Welcome! We recently completed The House of Quark Line-by-Line- thread in the DS9 forum! For any unfamiliar with our "game," you are asked to post only a single line (defined as one character speaking without interruption by another character) per message. You can post as often as you like, but someone else must post a line in between your posts. Our "rule" is that if the episode has a "To Be Continued..." on the end, it is done in a single thread, but if it's just an arc of related episodes (like the Dominion Occupation Arc on DS9 or the Xindi Arc on ENT), each episode is a separate thread. Get ready for a story, here we go!
SEVEN: I'm reconfiguring the power couplings in this section. (Good to be with y'all again! Hopefully sekundant has the fortitude to join us )
TORRES: Unless, of course, someone is trying to do a warp core diagnostic, which my crew has been trying to do all morning. We have lost hours of work because of this.
TORRES: What, "sorry" isn't in the Borg vocabulary? You need to check with me before you touch the power systems. Understood?
SEVEN: Understood. (Seven moves aside for Torres.) SEVEN: I am unaccustomed to working in a hierarchy. In the Collective there was no need to ask permission.
TORRES: If you're going to be a member of this crew, get used to it. Procedures exist for a reason. We've got to work together. Follow the same set of rules... (Torres trails off)
TORRES: I was given that lecture once, by Captain Janeway when I first joined this crew. If I could adjust to Starfleet life, so can you.
PARIS: Well, it's my conn report, actually. I just realized I forgot to turn it in, and Chakotay gives me a hard time when it's late.
