Being a CE is great. You can plan your work however you like. And today Mike was more then with engineering busy with preparations for the evening, where he wanted to prepair a night not easily forgotten for the woman he fell in love with - Kristi.

Booking a holosuit was easy. He was good with programming as well, and the Viking’s database was well stocked with anything you can thing of. Sadly for him.. the database was too vast and he needed help.

What better place then the Science labs. As he entered, the place was busy with people.

“Hi, I’m looking for someone who knows a lot about astronomy.” He said to the nearest person present.

OOC: If anyone wants to give Stone a few astronomy tips this is a good place to tag yourself in. Sadly we have no actual sci officer on rooster.

OOC: Moving things along…

After being brieft to various astonomical phenomenons, and sights, Mike had a better idea what to prepair for Kristi. Sure he knew before about comets, meteorites and nebulas, but now he knew which one to look for that were the most interesting to see.

From the science lab, he went to the Mess hall, to get some sandwiches they could nibble on, while the simulation would play.

When he finally reached Holosuit 1 he asked: “Computer, what time is it?” “6.30pm.” The computer replied coldly.

“Damn, that late already? Computer lock the doors. If anyone is trying to enter play following message: The program is being prepaired. Please wait a bit, as soon as it’s ready i’ll come outside. End message.”

He then set to work on the scene. The objects he wanted weren’t hard to find. A viking-class ship, just like theirs. Only mint condition unlike their ship. Outside it’s hull, breathable atmosphere, so they could sit on it’s hull and observe the stars. In the distance he programed nebulas to fly by, a supernova to eruption in the distance, meteor shower… all effects would be visible only and would play out after a few minutes, to be replaced with something else.
He added a few features into the ship’s hull, that a real ship would never have or need. Who’d need a jacuzzi pop out of the hull? In space the water would evaporate immediately. But the holosuits could be anything you could imagine.

“I wonder if she’ll be brave enough to try it out.” He said to himself, then checked the time. It was a bit past 7 already.

Saving and ending the simulation for now, he opened the doors and went to check, if Kristi was anywhere around already, or if she was being late again.

Kristi had arrived a few minutes early. Trying to holosuite’s door and receiving the message, she waited. Leaning on the wall across the hall and smiling. As Mike stuck his head out, she smiled. “Evening.” Walking over to stand in front of him, she kissed his lips softly then pulled back. “If you need more time, I can wait.”

Shaking his head Mike and looking almost shocked she could suggest something like that, he immediately replied “I can’t keep a lady waiting.” It was a fact that he hated being late. If possible he always made sure to always arrive a little early.

“I’m done with the simulation. I’m sure it can still be improved, but a test run shouldn’t hurt.”

He led her onto the hull of the viking-class ship and towards the bridge. There, a large blanket was layed out, with a picknic basket. “The guys at the lab were also very helpful, the view from here should be fantastic.

Once they reached the blanket, Mike motioned Kristi to take a sit. While real duranium hull of the ship would be quite hard, Mike made sure it felt softer then real.

“What do you think? The ship can always be replaced by something else. Grass, a beach, maybe moutains…”
