It was something that he enjoyed; it was not unlike starting a new painting. When he and Lisa were together he would sit and watch her paint. For Dagen, then Duncan, he was ever the most fascinated by her beginnings. As he stood inside the door and looked at the ‘blank canvas’ of gridlines his mind began to form his own ideas. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : =^= Computer, bring up a scene of the Kashi Glacier Caves on Andor. =^= He had been there once and had been fascinated by the angles that that side of the glacier had. =^= Now, remove the caves and replace them with platforms indented and a terrace between them except for the main platform. Leave that. Adjust the ladders to being stairs inside and out, and make a walkway along the base so that inside people can walk either from above or below to the hot springs. Now, on the wind sculptures of ice that are along the sides, create a series of angular ‘shoots’ and ‘slides’ and connect them to be an ice slide. =^= : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Those were the seriously broad strokes on this painting, but it allowed for some fun and some relaxation and more there. He could add more later. Right now he wanted to save it before Chan arrived. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Just as she was arriving, Dagen was saying =^= Save program and close =^= : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Dagen, Eng : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Once Chan walked in not log after Dagen had closed the program”Someone’s keen” she said as she walked over to him. “So what were you working on. I have some ideas but it seems you have already started. Lets see what you’ve come up with. I can adjust i then” she said kindly. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lieut Chan (Sub-DH Robotics) : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Hi,” he replied. “Not so much keen but just had some ideas that I was thinking of doing. I, uh, didn’t want to offend you.” Dagen took a breath and said, “I was intrigued by an article I read oh some years ago. I ski and quite like winter sports and activities and had always thought that the Kashi Glacier caves would make for a cool place for a resort. As you probably know there are hot springs under the glacier and as it rolls over it it melts our caves inside and exits for the hot air and gases. I was just playing with the idea of a ‘what if’ .. and adapting an ice slide out of the wind and weather formations along the side of the lacier and a kind of ‘hot tub’ bit inside. I had just gotten some broad strokes down on it.” He knew that in the ancient past on Andor that the caves had possibly been important historically. He stopped before suggesting ‘sacred’ as there were really little to no archaeological evidence to that but that they had been inhabited at one point. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Here goes ..” he said. =^= Computer restore program =^= : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Dagen, Eng : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : The program started and Chan looked around. it was a nice idea, but she decided she would toy with Dagen a bit “A tad stereotypical isn’t it. the Kashi Glacier Caves are historical site, as early Andorians lived there. Many archaeologists would do anything to go. So you think putting a resort there would be a good idea.” she said simply, trying not to give her little game away. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lieut Chan (Sub-DH Robotics) : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Dagen frowned in thought. “For Andorians, I would agree. I only know of it because of my winter sports activities. I, ah, didn’t think it would be that well known.” He suddenly had the thougth that he had offended Chan. “I only wanted to use it as a baseline to modify it, not to well, use it.” He looked about and his brow furrowed. “Hardly a resort, just enough things for the crew to occupy themselves with in a sport, a bath and a bar. Uh, were you thinking a resort would work better?” His mind was jumbled. “Perhaps it would be best to ask what your thought is.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Dagen, Eng and budding holo programmer : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Chan nodded “If that all we want to do then i think that would be fine. we will need a dance floor and seat around it so those who don’t want to dance can sit and chat. I would also say that we should have a set dress code. Inspired by the ice or the culture of Andoria” she said simply as she started to program the holodeck. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Dagen mentally plotted the changes. Anything would do, really. His idea was yet a fledgling thing. “Easy to do with putting in a dance floor. Perhaps a little father in with the cave on a generated flat area. Lights can be used for effect on the ice on the ceiling and a little computer help can assist with the harmonics for decent sound.” He chewed his lip at the next thought. “What is your idea of the dress code? I’m running a blank on that one.” : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “well we’re in an ice cave on an ice planet. so i thought we could have a dress code inspired by ice, whites, blues and other cold colours. We wnat people to have fun so i’d say smart casual inspired by ice.” she said simply. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Is that ok with you” she asked sincerely : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lieut Chan (Sub-DH Robotics) : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Perfectly so,” he said. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Dagen, CE : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Once Chan and Dagen had sorted out the finer pints the program was ready and the invites where sent “Well hopefully the crew will enjoy this” she said. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lieut Chan (Sub DH-Robotics) : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : David walked in, dressed in his futuristic Starfleet uniform. The invite said the color scheme was white and blue, and the soft baby blue color of the velvety fabric was perfect for such an occasion. Plus it was a gentle reminder to himself, as well as the other crew, of his origins from the future. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : As he walked in, it appeared that he was one of the first to arrive. He walked over to where Chan and Dagen stood. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Well hello,” He said, smiling. “This is quite a change from the typical lounge setting we have for such occasions.” He took a glance around. “This kind of reminds me of the Kashi Glacier Caves.” He looked over at Chan and gave her a wink. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : -David Michaels, CSO : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Chan smiled. She was wearing a long elegant form fitting ice blue dress with intricate silver detail on the bottom and on the sleeves. she also wore a silver necklace, with an insignia on a pendent. the insignia was dotted with emeralds. i”That’s because it is. only modified for the party. Your knowledge in Andorian caves is good.” she said kindly. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Niniane entered the holodeck and was immediatelly happy that it was not as cold as if this was a real ice cave. Cause the chiffon dress she wore didn’t provide a lot of warmth. It left her arms, shoulders, her neck, legs and upper back free and in a real ice cave she would have frozen right away. : : : : : : : : : : : : : A bit self-conscious she looked herself up and down, following her Trill spots from her ankles all the way up her legs to her shoulders and neckline. She had chosen the dress to show off the spots, but she wasn’t really sure why this had felt important to her. The dress itself was pure white, setting off her tanned skin, so it fit quite nicely to the setting. She looked around trying to figure out what to do next. : : : : : : : : : : : : : - Niniane Fahr, sci : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Dagen had had a more difficult time figuring out what to wear than he had in helping to design this program. He was pale of complexion but dark of hair and abundant at that, though it was rather more salt and pepper these days. His final ensemble was that of white pressed trousers and a grey fur-like calf length boot. A similarly grey shirt was covered in a long formal white blazer with tails, the collar alllowing for a bow tie. The latter he found a bit much and perhaps stuffy though this was about he and Chan so the hosts should be dressed up. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : He followed the line of Niniane’s spots and ended at her eyes. “Very nice,” he said. She was tanned. it was something that he never seemed to be able to manage, but then he was more a winter sports fellow. “Inside is a kind of dance floor, drinks and hot springs. Outside slides and ice climbing, though i’m not sure how much sporting one will have in our dress.” He held out his hand. “I’m Thor. I don’t think we’ve met.” : : : : : : : : Dagen Thor : : : : Niniane laid her head slightly to the side which made the long tail of her auburn hair sway left as well, revealing even more spots on her neck, but her smile was amused rather than surprised. “I’m Niniane, no we haven’t but I was looking forward to it. I’ve heard of Thor. I’m unjoined and half Denobulan.” she said and pointed at her blazingly blue Denobulan eyes, a colour that was only to be found with Denobulans indeed. : : - Niniane : : “Thor is a bit of a rebel,” Dagen replied with a humored smile. He marked the slight contrast between her tan and her spots along her neck. They were attractive. He knew that his own spots would have a contrast between his complexion and the dark spots. He wondered if she felt awkward in not being joined in the presence of two who were, though flashed her a wider smile. “I’m half Trill and half slug. My only problem is that the slug half has a mind of his own.” He didn’t miss her eyes, bright in stark contrast to his own dark, almost black, eyes. “Pleased to meet you Niniane. I go by Dagen, among others.” With the way that the Federation was integrating there were more ‘mixed’ races about, starting with Spock, half vulcan and half human. It didn’t bother Dagen one way or the other. Variety was good, and really, when it came down to it, it was the person who mattered. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Thomas walked in in a white dress shirt with navy-blue slacks held up and accented by a white belt, and white leather boots. His collar was open and without tie, because the invite did say casual. : : : : : : : : : : : : He gave acknowledging nods to the few who had already arrived, two of which were the organizers who had sent the invite, and looked for the food station. : : : : : : : : : : : : COS : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : There was a certain trepidation at the thought of this social event. The last one Valleea had attended had been when they had gotten their new ship and everyone had been going through a swath of emotions. She herself had been, though she hadn’t known it at the time, experiencing early signs of her PTSD, so today marked an important juncture for her. Today she knew she was doing better but still had a ways to go. At least it felt hopeful. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Her eyes travelled the scene as she move inside the holodeck and there was a sense of awe on her face as she looked in all directions, including up. Then she spotted Niniane and moved over to her, touching her friend’s back gently. “Hello, you look lovely,” the Kriosian commented. She herself still had a skewed sense of what ‘casual’ was, but had opted for an ice blue jumpsuit with a deep plunging neckline and no sleeves. Made of a structured material, it followed the curves of her body closely but not too snugly. Heeled white boots and long silver chains from her neck completely what she hoped was an appropriate look. : : : : : : : : : : : Ensign Valleea, Doctor : : : : Niniane swiveled to the side, facing now both Thor ans Valleea and gave Valleea a broad smile. “So do you! : : : : : : : : : : Dagen looked at Valleea. He could very easily say the same about her. “Long time no see Doctor,” he said. “A little different from Jeffries Tubes though you are ever very creative about your dress.” : : : : : : : : Dagen Thor : : : : : : : : : : : : Ben was busy hard at work making his signature berry medley salad as an appetizer. It was full of raspberries blackberries, and blueberries. He reached in the basket he brought in the caves and pulled out several small bushels of mint leaves. He chopped them and mixed the scented mint leaves with the that had been previously dressed with honey. Ben grabbed as many small plates as he could and plated his salad. Ben grabbed four plates of salad and walked towards a group of people. With a smile “Salad anyone? Berries directly from my village.” : : : : : : : : : : Park, BO Tactical/Security : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Chan saw Ben “Excuse me” she said to the group she was talking. She walked towards Ben once at his table she smiled at him “Thank you for putting this all together for the party” she said sincerely. : : : : : : : : : Lieut Chan (Sub-DH Robotics) : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Tigress had only just gotten off shift when she entered the party. Half of her wanted to just wanted to go to her quarters and call it a night. She was not very social, Ben was the only person who she seamed to get along well with. He was also the only one how could convince her to do something other than research. She looked around the ice was more interesting to her then the people. ”What kind of animals could live in such an environment? ” she said not aware she had said it out loud. : : : : : : : Ensign Tigress : : : : : : : : : : : : Tom was off next to a wall of clear ice. He had a drink in his hand that was, most likely, a flavored water of some kind. He wore his usual off duty monochromatic gray outfit. Charcoal gray slacks, medium gray button front short sleeved shirt, and black low profile shoes. He watched the people mill around. : : : : : : Tom, IntSec : : : : : : : : : : Riley was always up for a good party and as he entered the holodeck and took in the awe-inspiring, icy sights a smile crossed his pale face. Leave it to engineers to create such a marvel, he thought to himself. He wore an ice-blue, crewneck shirt under a squared white jacket with a blue collar that reached an inch below his jawline. White trousers completed the dress-code appropriate ensemble. His dark hair and eyes appeared more pronounced than usual against the cold colors of his outfit and surroundings. : : : : : : : : : : Naturally servers carrying trays of icy cold drinks were circling the space, and Riley purloined a gin martini with two olives and sparkling crystals of ice floating on its surface. He scanned the room, noting Chan and Ben a ways across the room. It had been a while since he’d checked in with the now-former Chief Engineer and he chided himself for not seeing her request for reassignment coming. It was his duty to anticipate this sort of thing, but he sensed nothing but contentment from the change in her position. Thor, the man of the hour, had found himself in the company of two striking women. Riley smiled. It seemed an appropriate place for the celebrant to be. : : : : : : : : : : Riley caught David’s attention and waved him over. He’d spotted the security chief standing alone and wanted to make his way there. He hadn’t had a chance to connect with McGregor outside work, and he made a point of getting to know the senior staff. : : : : : : : : : : The Counselor had to angle his head up to make eye contact with the COS, “Lieutenant, how are you this evening?” : : : : : Dekker, CNS : : : : : : “I am functioning within optimal parameters,” Thomas said deadpan before cracking a smile. “Pretty good, now that everything seems to have calmed down a bit and we’re just waiting to get underway again. Still working to get all the new people in and set up.” : : : COS “Good to hear,” Riley took a sip of his martini, letting his eyes wander over the crowd long enough to take in Marishka’s striking entrance. He flashed her a smile and a wink before returning his attention to the solid wall of security chief before him. “The Genny’s your first ship assignment, if I’m not mistaken. A bit different from an Earth-based posting. The new ship has a much bigger crew than the last, but it’s still small. No escape I suppose. Are you finding everyone welcoming?” Dekker, CNS : : : : : : Marishka hated to be late for a party unless, of course, she was fashionably late. She stepped into the icy scene in a metallic blue miniskirt and matching halter with a lace shrug casually draped over her shoulders done in soft ivory and studded with blue and white crystals. There was a small braid on either side of her head starting at the temple that twisted into a bun at the nape of her neck. Chains of blue and white crystals hung from the braids nearly to her shoulders. Her silver heels made no sound as she glided through the scene waving and smiling. Plucking a glass form a nearby tray she wondered if there would be dancing tonight. : : : : Marishka, CIO

:
“Aye, it’s my first ship assignment, but I grew up in a town with just a couple thousand people in it. The faces get familiar, and eventually you get to know everybody by name, what they do, where they’re from, and if you live close enough or catch them in a weak moment at the bar, a lot more than that,” Thomas said. “I’d say I’m probably about a quarter of the way to the first three points with most of the crew… halfway there if you exclude the new transfers.”
COS

In social occasions like this, Shalahn was still very shy. As the tall alien entered the holodeck, she instantly suppressed a need to shiver. The ice cave was beautiful and so realistic that she had to remind herself that it wasn’t really cold. She was dressed in a blue robe that covered most of her body and her tattoo-like intricate blue designs that covered all of her skin except on her face.
She would fit quite nicely naked into this cave, but the other species on the Genesis had an odd reaction to naturla nakedness and she didn’t want to make anybody else feel uncomfortable. Instead she went to the bar to get a nice drink and in her mind she settled on another evening of silently watching the crew she had come to like, even without being allowed to communicate with them in her natural way.

Ben looked up at Chan “thank you Lieutenant. I’m just glad I could help.” Ben made sure that his part was done..well at least for now. Ben had finished the last plates of his mixed berry medley salad. “I’m sorry Lieutenant would you excuse me for a minute. I’ll be right back Sir.” He started to look for his companion Tigress.
Ensign Park

Ben would find Tigress closely exsamining one of the iceey walls of the cave. What animals would make this home. Her mind coming up with all kinds of possiblitys.
