She went on to tell Jasper all that was needed, and added it to the list she was typing into a limited access file on the console before them. Once in a while she turned to Daniel to be sure she had remembered it all correctly.

-25 pieces of deterium plating 10x15 long with the purpose as being used as a containment shell
-an indeterminate amount of high power data and cabling lines
-15 gravimetric and 20 spatial sensor pallets., each one will need to be configured for an individual purpose to be given later
-a sizable amount of hydrogen and helium particles 50kgs in six individual standard storage canisters which will need to be carefully purified of outside spacial matter by the bussard collectors

“And finally,” she completed while trying to maintain a straight face though her voice hitched with a giggle she didn’t want bubbling up. “We have to produce a warp field equal to the ship traveling to warp 8 in strength coupled with emissions of antineutrino patricles. ” A small burst of laughter escaped, sounding almost like hysteria. “And the power draw should be as close as we can get it to our own warp signature so as not to be interfered with.” She closed her eyes leaning on the console and shook her head. How were they ‘ever’ going to get all this done… and in the swift timeline needed? She bit back another giggle as she took a deep breath.

Daniel came in again ready to finally explain the initial build setup. “..What we’re building is a housing and container for a micro temporal-reality generator. Once online it’ll allow us to correct the problems generated by the ship due to your earlier temporal and reality travel. The anomalies your ship is creating in the temporal stream will be targeted then and corrected. But this generator is key to that effort..” He explained.

Tia looked at Daniel. “So that’s all… just a machine to fix the timeline, hooked to our ship, drawing power from us with unknown consequences?” She bit back a laugh that bordered on hysterical. Her sarcasm evident in her words. “Sure… no problem… piece of cake.” She shook her head and leaned on her arms on the console. So, we have them fabricating and assembling the base and pallets. By this time tomorrow, we can start running power to it. But I won’t hook it up to the ship till at leave 5 simulations verify we will not kill us in the process. Understand? I won’t compromise the crew for some glitches in the universe. If we are alive, that’s what matters to me.” She looked at him and crossed her arms. There was a set to her jaw and the stance of her feet that left no room for misunderstanding. She wouldn’t risk the ship no matter what.

”..Of course I would not wish to rush things either to cause further problems would be even more dangerous..” Daniel said as the teams worked finishing up the containment unit.

By the time 3rd shift was half over, the containment field had been created and Tia had been working on various logarithms of power settings to see if she could give Daniel what he wanted. When the current settings worked for the second time, she called for him to join him in engineering in her office. There were still things to make, and some assembly left, but this was one of the biggest hurdles and she hoped she had figured right. It allowed for the powering of the container while maintaining stabilization in the warp core up to warp 6. Past that, she had trouble maintaining one field or the other. She hoped he either accepted it, or had a solution.

The idea of going warp 7 or above while powering that thing in the cargo bay scared her to the core.

Daniel came over, “..What seems to be the problem?” He inquired.

GM CockRoach

Tia looked up with a mild frown her face. “Such confidence in me and my crew. Nothing wrong… I wanted to say I worked the logistics of paralleling the warp core with the container’s power. Wanted you to see them.” She stepped aside and crossed her arms. Assuming there was something wrong didn’t exactly sit well with the Chief.
