OK. So...

I'm tots geeking out! I just installed a total of three apps on my phone and ended up with a complete LCARs set up. Here's a screenshot:

Oops... I guess I still had the edit mode on. Anyway. It is way fun!

That. Is. AWESOME!

Been toying around with that idea, myself, just wasn't too sure on which apps to pick... there seem to be quite a few.

The best...

I went with these two (there are others that are pre-programmed buttons that require apps but these are the main two):

and

this one needs to be installed first for the other to work:

All right...

...I've got a post started (well, continuing, actually... again, the whole use of shuttles kind of plays into a little 'fluff piece' I had going for Flight Control, anyway, so I'm just building on what I already had started). With any luck, I'll get it tacked up this afternoon.

yep

I figured the shuttle part would be fun and give people something more to do.

Shuttle...........?

Working on a post from Berk to Reid, although Reid has been listening in.

Reid will lead the security team, just need to add the other 5.

As for holding the prisoners, I will improvise restraints, I haven't found anything in any site about Security" gear.

Would Security pilot the shuttle or is a pilot assigned?
original orders.

===============================================

BTW we need to remember our original orders.

" You are an escort here, nothing more....
"Your sole job is to ensure the security of the negotiations and of the Coronado."

We are to Protect and Defend" the Coronado, not to attack an undeclared enemy.

Admiral Harding's orders over rule Captain Jacobs.

Just my Security Officer's POV.

Shuttles and Security

Ody - Starfleet Security does have what are referred to as security restraints - basically the 24th century version of handcuffs.

As to the shuttles, the post I'm currently writing up has someone from Flight Control serving as your pilot (most likely Kook or Megan)... this frees up the entirety of your Security detachment to board the Stormspike if need be.

I know we were told to shut up and fly but...

... I just HAVE to point out that things are likely coming full circle here. And I quote:

A smirk played at the right corner of the Captain's mouth. "Either that, or you'll likely have a front row seat at my eventual court martial, no?"

Tochi grinned; "If it comes to that; I suppose so."

The Trill helmsman leaned forward, then, resting his elbows on his knees and lacing his fingers together as he regarded the Captain. "In our experience, Silas," he began, "we have come to understand that what others think they know about us is probably as far from true knowledge as this ship is from the Delta Quadrant. Most of what they think they know is based on little more than their own interpretation of tiny parts of another's larger, over-all existence. Those interpretations, too, are often based on the elucidations of others who related them, second or third hand, from some initial interpretation which was likely born of the same flawed logic.

I've known you long enough to form my own opinions, for example - I ‘know' you to be an honorable and honest man; I ‘know' that you are a capable and reliable starship Captain and an excellent Starfleet Officer;" Tochi had been ticking these observations off on his fingers as he went but, as he very carefully broached the next point, he folded his hands together, again, and leaned back into his chair, "And I also ‘know' why you refused regenerative treatment for those scars you bear. Yet, despite all of these things that I ‘know,' I can't honestly say that I truly know Silas James Drake, and no one else can, either."

The Trill arched a brow, then, and offered a knowing smile. "The only beings in the whole of the universe that truly know us, Captain, are ourselves. Every last bright spot and every dark corner of who you really are is archived, in it's original and unedited form, inside of you and nowhere else. Not in here," Tochi pressed a finger to his head, "not out there," that same finger swept toward the door indicating the crew on the other side of it, "and certainly not in the mind of some frilling, stick-in-her-sphincter, Admiral who's never even met you in person and bases what she ‘knows' on redacted documentation and hearsay,"

He spread his hands, then, offered a smile, and shrugged; ",So, yes, take your petty pleasure in proving them wrong, and then, take expansive pleasure when they've been forced to admit it..."


...aaaaaaand...

"From all I've read," the Trill grinned, gesturing to the model of The Golden Hind, "Your ancestor had a very similar mindset to yours. In the grand scheme of things, when all was said and done, he was quite successful, wasn't he?" Tochi moved for the door, then, saying; "Sir Francis Drake, I imagine, put very little stock in what ifs; perhaps, Captain Silas Drake should emulate that, as well, hm?"

He had reached the door, now, and, just before cueing it to open, he turned back and regarded the Captain, once again. "For the record, sir," he said, "If it does come to a court martial, I will be there, front and center, as your friend above all else.


See you at the tribunal, Captain! Would you like us to prepare a boarding party and remove Captain Jacobs from the Coronado's bridge?



P.S. Post has gotten rather lengthy and continues to grow... may be tomorrow morning before I post... unless I can find a decent way to "chunk it out"....
