USS Leviathan
OOC: Line of the Night - December
Hey Leviathaners,
let’s kick off the new year with a reminder of how brilliant you all were last month! Apologies that this slipped away from me over the holidays, but I’ll start choosing lines again from tonight (or if anyone else ever wants to pick a line then please feel free) and here are the ones from December up to the 23rd.
(And just the usual disclaimer that this is purely a bit of fun and doesn’t count towards anything official. It’s also inevitably skewed in favour of those who post daily, but that’s just the nature of me choosing a new line every day.)
- Sharon

| Date | Character | Player | Line | Post |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 01/12/2020 | William Hampton | Samuel Stroud | “As the away team made separated Casela could feel a shift in the ship. The ominous presence she had been feeling was retreating. Surda could now speak again. And the ship felt a little bit lighter for everyone, as if something had changed.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112066/ |
| 02/12/2020 | Fey Kastil | Brian Armstrong | “I like the new look Mr. Hampton, very ominous. Please don’t kill me, I shall try to resist my urge to study you.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112202/ |
| 03/12/2020 | N/A | J Ridgley | “Overall the Leviathan has surpassed my own expectations from the commitment of its starting crew to the latest members drive to thrive mentality, always pushing the boundaries of writing and ever increasing our IC and OOC universe. I couldn’t be more proud of what we have achieved and I look forward to achieving more in the future.” | N/A |
| 04/12/2020 | Gruv ‘Blackbeard’ Skallig | Dave Shotton | “Elite?” He asked with a raised eyebrow. “Oh I get it,” he said, taking a sip of his drink and winking at Surda. For an elite crew, the Captain seemed to require bodyguards and servants for what to him, was a regular check-in. Maybe it was elite like the old Roman Praetorian Guard, which was so elite they often stabbed you in the back. Come to think of it, that was the Romulan Tal-Shiar as well, that his wife belonged to. He sighed to himself, it was always elite these days, poor old Gruv just wanted to be normal for a change.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112436/ |
| 05/12/2020 | Lazol | Brian Richards | “You are a curious thing aren’t you. I respect that. This is an exceptionally dangerous place for anyone. Let alone a child!” He said tersely as he said, “Where are your parents? Who do I need to talk to about their young being in places that should be impossible to get to.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112509/ |
| 05/12/2020 | Casela Synthi-er | Jennifer Ward | “Casela smiled, “You aren’t different Cerenity, you are very smart. And there is never anything wrong with that. Where I grew up, there was a little girl who could count and add like you when she was 3, and there was a little boy, he wasn’t able to talk until he was 5. We are all different. That’s why I like meeting new people. No one is the same. And I like you because you are you, not everyone else.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112444/ |
| 06/12/2020 | Jessie Polizzi | Ty Napier | “Many times her Italian/human father had brought flowers to her half Klingon mother. To which Jessie had observed was meant as an apology that resulted in a slightly less angry and grumpy wife.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112569/ |
| 06/12/2020 | Luna | Christina Crafford | ”Kara can you tell Lazol that I got the fire in the this to come out” she said holding the stone out to her as they left.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112602/ |
| 06/12/2020 | Zacharian Cobb | Sharon Miller | “For the first time in my entire Starfleet career, I feel like I am making a difference. The Leviathan is not simply another cog in the Federation machine. She is a trailblazer. In every way that the word has meaning. And so too are the people who serve on her.” Reaching once more for his glass and raising it in a toast, he cleared his throat and offered, “To forging a path through the darkness and emerging triumphant into the dawn.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112563/ |
| 07/12/2020 | Daizi Orin | Ffion Grace | “Unfortunately, despite her somewhat hopeful lens maintenance, the sign stencilled on the door still clearly read ‘waste management systems’ rather than the hoped for ‘science lab alpha’, and no amount of glasses cleaning was going to change the fact that she was going to be late on her first day aboard a starship.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112628/ |
| 07/12/2020 | Gruv ‘Blackbeard’ Skallig | Dave Shotton | “Ye ever had to wear in a pair of these things? I swear, never buy them from an Orion trader in a hurry, they’re tougher than my grandmothers cheese toasties. Grab the Endo-plasmatic calibrator out of the kit would you and lets get started on that blockage.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112671/ |
| 08/12/2020 | N/A | Jay Luistro | “I love it, just because it is horror and because you can get some limbs for free.” | N/A |
| 08/12/2020 | N/A | Dave Shotton | “The shoooty shooty bang bang class.” | N/A |
| 08/12/2020 | Surda | Leonora V | “I got bitten by a plant once, but it was very small.” And venomous but that part wasn’t very important. “Photosynthesis is part of what makes plants green.” She was curious to see what Cerenity would do with that information and a green person standing next to her.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112863/ |
| 09/12/2020 | Juliet Anders | Melissa Aragon | “As they headed back a warmth would slowly settle in Surda’s mind. Like the feeling of coming in from a cold place and being heated once more. I am here would be the soft whisper. Like hearing someone down a hallway you couldn’t see. It was soft, and low. Can you hear me? Just think your answer. I will know it.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112966/ |
| 09/12/2020 | Surda | Leonora V | “Reminds me of the good old days. She made the comment absently, but she remembered the things she had done for a moment, then pushed them away. That wasn’t the sort of thing she’d show anyone really.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/112972/ |
| 10/12/2020 | Hawkeye Logan | Christopher Logan | “Sir are we going to deck 13 for something or is it where my quarters are sir.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/113111/ |
| 11/12/2020 | Ryder Raauhl | J Ridgley | “The crew operated mostly under their own departments with the head reporting to the command team every so often but with an unscheduled meeting being called usually meant one thing, trouble.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/113251/ |
| 12/12/2020 | Gruv ‘Blackbeard’ Skallig | Dave Shotton | “Nakuto is alive lad! How about that!” Turning to Cobb, Gruv leaned forward and suddenly had a very serious look on his face. “Tell me Captain, does she still have the funny hat?” And to emphasise it, Gruv put his hands on either side of his head and stuck his fingers up like a pair of horns.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/113313/ |
| 13/12/2020 | Theodore Knox | Calé Reilly | “Taking the cup he sipped and nodded appreciatively. “An interesting notion. You could do a lot of good duplicated I am sure.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/113447/ |
| 14/12/2020 | Davidic | Brian Richards | “He will be reading a passage from The Book of Abell, Chapter 4, Verse 33. “And so The All Consuming One hath laid before him a selection of those desiring to experience the love that only Dave can bring.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/113647/ |
| 15/12/2020 | NE Va’lak | Jay Luistro | “I was with him I tell you! And it was magnificent…” he opened the arms wide as he kept going on “I was with him, when he slashed me the face… I felt it in my face and well if it was good… But he told me, I heard, I was not ready. But he saw potential in me and spared my life. I remember so greatly his figure, his touch. Oh Grand Poobah, many have joined him already, many brothers and sisters. I was just this little to be freed by this miserable corpse and be one. Being one is freedom, brothers and sisters! I saw it with my eyes, their eternal chillness!” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/113779/ |
| 15/12/2020 | Ilena Keelara Rox | Jennifer Ward | “He thought she looked a little young. But then what did he know about research? He was RTF through and through. He’d been transferred here after he’d been almost mortally wounded when Dave escaped. He still wasn’t as healed as he wished. He missed the crew on Leviathan. But in the meantime he’d been placed here to help filter the new ARU crew to their transports.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/113683/ |
| 16/12/2020 | Jessie Polizzi | Ty Napier | “Nodding her head approvingly she let out a belly laugh. Of course! It was some game her and the XO were playing to spice up the old love life. That XO was a smooth fellow, she had to give him that. He definitely knew how to keep the ladies keen. Jessie made a mental note to add to her personal log she had been keeping on tips from the XO. One day she hoped to be as proficient as a mate as the XO.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/113910/ |
| 16/12/2020 | Ch’otok | Brian Richards | “Ch’otok made his trek to that exact spot once a week, Thursday evenings he took a small tin with him containing hasperat, a slice of tuwaly pie, and a thermos with moba tea. The mean represented his wife’s wholesome but spicy nature, the pie represented his daughter’s sweetness, and the tea was always warm to remind him that they were still with him. He would often say a prayer to the Prophets while he was there eating in the quiet as he thought of how they were better off in the Celestial Temple.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/113923/ |
| 17/12/2020 | N/A | Calé Reilly | “The great November/December bridge film ”The Miracle of 34th street” (The one with Santa before he goes back to his summer Job in Jurassic park)” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/command/command/posts/114028/ |
| 17/12/2020 | Jonathan Durheim | William Deaton | “Anger; Miss Surda. Frustration with my supposed superiors who were blinded by tradition and religion. Peoples must make due with what they have - be it history, intelligence, technology, whatever; I accept that. But I cannot accept blind adherence to a demonstrably false belief. I am a naturally content man, Miss Surda - I do not require much in life. But I will, and have, risked my life to turn against my… ‘tribe’, if you will. The potential rewards outweighed the risks - and looking back, I consider the loss of my arms to be a welcome trade for my current situation.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/113942/ |
| 18/12/2020 | Erve Manhattan | Jay Luistro | “Erve Manhattan. New CoS? Ah! I would not say the last was eaten or something… but anyway, can I offer you something and then you tell me what’s the matter?” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/114052/ |
| 19/12/2020 | Luna | Christina Crafford | “Cerenity glared at her mom ” ok mom can I go now” she said impatiently. Luna giggled nodded and cerenity took off. Eminently getting caught by a jet stream and taken in the complete opener direction she was intending to go. But she recovered quickly enough.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/114088/ |
| 20/12/2020 | Daizi Orin | Ffion Grace | “Concentrating, she carried on cutting to widen the excision she had made, after all, what harm could come from investigating a strange egg-like thing found in the bowels of a starship??” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/114226/ |
| 21/12/2020 | Ryder Raauhl | J Ridgley | “I’d also recommend running the shifts on reduced manning, try and give people as much time off until we get there to continue their deserved rest bite.” He offered, and proud how quickly people were jumping in to help and not moan, he’d been on ships where the staff would cry bloody mary at having their personal time taken from them, but not the Leviathan, they got things done.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/114327/ |
| 23/12/2020 | Erve Manhattan | Jay Luistro | “TF-5 said that the north pole was amazing for skiing and all snowy sports, and indeed, for the lovers of such practices, ARU furnished some well suited installation that guaranteed many snow ball fights and speedy races through the pure white cold pudding. Yes pudding, because it was not only snow, but a really, really soft one that could still be compacted but was amazing for those who loved a comfortable bed at a really cheap price.” | https://www.star-fleet.com/core/stf1/leviathan/posts/114522/ |
