(USS Illuminar – Corridor – ACONN Alexander Dyson – 1107)

Alex had worked the midnight-to-eight-hundred shift today, before going to the Rec Room to continue serving his time for the bar brawl. After dodging his punishment for two days, he had begun getting it over with. One of the things that helping out at the Rec Room had allowed to do, was catch up with the ship’s scuttlebutt. And two pieces of news had sprung out at him.

The first was the whole story about Lieutenant T’shaliath. Two enlisted members had discussed the whole affair. How they had learned about all this, was beyond Alex. But they had talked about the lieutenant, Teresa Jackson and Sath’s katra. Talking about it had not made them very popular with the barkeep, who had scolded them for their behavior. Shortly after that, they had left the Rec Room.

As for the second story, that had come from the barkeep. Apparently, there was a still somewhere on the ship. And the booze it was producing was a problem for the legit recreation facilities. Or at least, so the barkeep thought. So Alex had decided to see if this was just shipboard rumor, or fact. A couple of questions later, he found himself at Science Lab Two. He stepped into the lab and frowned.

“What in the world is this ?”

Alex knew absolutely zip about this science stuff and the installation he found looked very sciency. ~Time for plan B.~ Because bothering Lieutenant Bohb with a – possibly illegal – still sounded like a bad idea in his head, he decided to contact someone else.

“Dyson to Vermyx.”

“I need an engineer in Science Lab 2. Turns out the eggheads might have been cooking up some hootch in their lair. I don’t know Jack about all the sciency stuff, so can you help a brother out here ? Because if I don’t send this up the chain, the bigwigs will have my hide.”

He had heard about Vermyx being an Iotian at the Rec Room, so he was taking a stab at adjusting his vernacular to something a bit more fitting. ~Still got a long way to go, Shep.~
