Local time where you're at. ("Where you're at"?)

[SCENE:&#160 Deep space.&#160 Pegasus&#160 has traversed a sizable portion of the quadrant, and now finds itself in Shelliak Corporate space.&#160 A warship blocks her path.

On the bridge, Captain Korrioth is engaged in…ah…a discussion&#160 with the representative from the Shelliak over the parts & materials they need for the new Battlehawk-class dreadnaught.]

KORRIOTH:&#160 You will&#160 trade with us or our Master will deal with you!!!

SHELLIAK:&#160 We have heard of your Lord Spatula.&#160 He does not impress us.

KORRIOTH:&#160 (to McManx) Close channel!!!

T-BONE MCMANX:&#160 (toggles three switches, nods back to Korrioth) Channel closed, Captain.

KORRIOTH:&#160 I’ll be in the Admiral’s quarters.&#160 (to K’hadibak’h) Conn!

K’HADIBAK’H:&#160 (grunt)

[SCENE:&#160 Our Hero‘s quarters.&#160 Korrioth holds an unidentified bundle of what appears to be clothing in his arms.]

KORRIOTH:&#160 M’lord, they remain…unconvinced.

LSIK&T:&#160 We’re about out of tricks here, my friend.&#160 We need those supplies & materials.

KORRIOTH:&#160 I think it may be time, my lord.

[Korrioth holds forth the bundle.&#160 It is a long charcoal-gray robe with a cloak & hood.&#160 Our Hero&#153 looks at it, then incredulously back at his exec.]

LSIK&T:&#160 No.&#160 You cannot be serious.

KORRIOTH:&#160 I see no other way, Admiral.&#160 You do not approve…?

LSIK&T:&#160 (sighs) It’s not that, Kor.&#160 It’s just that…well…when I exercise those powers to any sizable degree…(gets a pained expression)…I get this huge honkin’ three-week headache.

KORRIOTH:&#160 A headache?&#160 Is that&#160 all?

LSIK&T:&#160 Hey, Terran headaches ain’t picnics, Bumpy.

KORRIOTH:&#160 Say no more, my friend.

[Korrioth walks over and addresses the replicator.]

KORRIOTH:&#160 Theragen deriviative, formula PT-Spatula284, 34 ounces, three units of sweetener.

[An oversized Spatula City beer stein – replicas of which can be found here (grin) – materializes in the replicator bay.&#160 Korrioth takes it to Spats.]

KORRIOTH:&#160 The solution, m’lord.

LSIK&T:&#160 Theragen derivative???&#160 (makes a face – he’s tasted Theragen derivative, and nearly lost his lunch over it)

KORRIOTH:&#160 Just try it.&#160 I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

[Spats warily sniffs at it, catches a whiff of something definitely familiar, takes a cautions sip.&#160 His eyebrows arch in major surprise.]

LSIK&T:&#160 Peach tea???&#160 How’d you come across this, Captain?

KORRIOTH:&#160 (nodding) I made a wager with K’hadibak’h that I could make him throw up using anything that came out of the replicator.

LSIK&T:&#160 And this is what you used…?

[Korrioth just stands there and offers a faint Cheshire-cat grin.]

LSIK&T:&#160 Gimme that cloak and let’s go to the bridge.

(To be continued…)

—

Denizens, work continues on the IV project.&#160 Slowly, but it continues nonetheless.

Watch this space.&#160
