I do believe it is Independence Day for my Northern living crew. I hope the day was filled with family and friends.

I also happens to be the 24th anniversary of this fleet forming. Yes we've been around THAT long, there are a handful of us who have been around since those early days.

Leaving thoughts of middle age and decrepitness aside, please see the below anniversary link..there's some cool stuff going on there :)

Vadia IX

Commander Jennifer Baldric whipped around as Kit vanished mid sentence. They had just walked through another gateway, this one internal within what was left of the prison structure. Commander Savar had also vanished.

"Commander? Kit? Everybody hold your positions" she ordered, not game enough to take another step lest more of the team disappear.

Bonnie froze, mid-step, halfway between the door and the Beholder statue at the center of the the space. She held her breath taking note that half of the team had vanished. She could see the text on the Dias shining and illuminating in gold…

Mission: Character Development
Posted on Wed Feb 4th, 2026 @ 2:58pm by Commander Rosa Coy & Remal Kajun

Time slid by, not silently, not peacefully, but with a kind of uneasy truce woven through Rosa’s days. Coy had returned to his usual rhythm, humming in the background of her thoughts like a mischievous engine idling just below idle.

His lewd commentary resurfaced in flashes, never malicious, just inconveniently timed and annoyingly confident, but she held the reins with a firmer hand than she had in months.

Their dance had a cadence again. Push and pull. Spark and restraint.

When she stepped into Remal’s office for the next session, she felt steadier, though there was a tautness behind her…

Having laid up on the bio bed for the past half an hour waiting for the doctor to come over once to the scans to determine whether he was of this universe or another, Michael was feeding rather on edge with everybody looking at him we suspicion, he turned to face thing who is getting attended to after getting a bat Leth To his shoulder and Bonnie was getting attended to as well. He wondered why he was being left to last to be seen too, as he was the chief security officer, and the…

Posted on Wed Jan 28th, 2026 @ 4:21pm by Patin

Patin entered the shrine the way weather does, without apology, without intent to harm, carrying consequence in her pockets.

The hour was wrong for visitors. Bajoran shrines preferred witnesses: breath, kneeling, the soft arithmetic of faith. This one had only dust motes and candle smoke doing their slow orbital dance around relics that had learned patience the hard way. The air hummed with the quiet confidence of things that believed they would never be touched again.

Patin tilted her head, listening. Not praying. Listening. There was a difference, and the room felt it.

Her fingers brushed a relic, no reverence,…

The ship shifted as the gravimetric waves washed over the ship, a subtle movement. It was no longer imperceptible but still not significant.

"Where are those gravimetric waves originating from?" The Captain asked as the Sunfire slid into orbit, her warp engines restine whilst the ship maintained a synchronous rotation with the planet below.

Kit frowned "If the sensors are correct, through the Beholder." Just as she finished giving her comment her console pinged; the data she had requested on Krulmuth-B portal as well as the Time Ziggurat. She was working on a possible solution to their problem.

Bonnie glanced…

» Personal Log - Early Observations

Posted on Mon Jan 26th, 2026 @ 1:56pm by Lieutenant JG Rowan Hale

Personal log, Lieutenant JG Rowan Hale.

Several weeks have passed since I reported aboard the USS Sunfire. The distinction between days has already begun to erode, replaced by duty rotations, alert tones, and the constant vibration of the engines through the deckplates. This is a familiar phenomenon. I have experienced it before. The recurrence is… notable.

Assuming the role of Chief Medical Officer has proceeded with fewer complications than anticipated. That does not imply the absence of scrutiny. Lieutenant Commander Aurora Vali has proven invaluable in both administrative and clinical matters. Her insight into crew psychology is precise and uncomfortably…


» USS Sunfire — Acting Command Log - Bajoran Satellite Transfer

Posted on Fri Dec 5th, 2025 @ 6:38pm by Commander Jenna Ramthorne

Commander Jenna Lee Ramthorne, Bridge

Orbital track remains stable over Bajor’s northern hemisphere. Power levels nominal, comm buoy array holding lock. Current duty shift cycling cleanly.

At 1427 hours, Deep Space Nine signaled priority contact. Colonel Kira Nerys appeared on main viewer. Her report was short and to the point: the replacement control satellite had passed all station-level diagnostics and was ready for handover. Requested Sunfire to retrieve, position, and complete final activation protocols. Authorization codes transmitted and verified.

Acknowledged the order and initiated retrieval preparations.

Helm plotted a straight-line course from our current orbital anchor to DS9 at three-quarter…

Personal Log, Leo Da’Cinci — Supplemental
(Confidential. Not for official record. If ye’re readin’ this, put it back where ye found it, or I’ll throttle ye with me own spanner.)



I woke up this mornin’ to the bloody computer chirpin’ in me ear again. 0600 hours sharp, no mercy, no consideration. “Good mornin’, Lieutenant Da’Cinci,” it says, as though I’m about to spring out of bed with a smile. Ha! I roll over, mumble a curse or three, and slap the console ‘til it shuts up. Truth be told, if the ship herself didn’t need me, I’d never leave the…

Personal Log:
Entry 2

The transfer to the USS Sunfire is still pending. The ship hasn't arrived at Deep Space 9 yet, and so I am left to wait. I've been spending my time in my quarters, staring out the window at the endless parade of vessels docked at the station's ring. My gaze keeps drifting back to my own ship, the Achilles-class I brought here, a testament to my own work. Seeing it so close only makes my current assignment feel more… ordinary.
I have been officially assigned the position of Chief Strategic Operations Officer. In a time of…

Kitiuas stepped into her new quarters, much larger do to the fact it was designated for family.
Kasso looked up from the kitchen nook 'Well you look like a warmed over korgasant." said Kasso as she stirred something in the Orion firepot in front of her. Kit could smell the rich spices and sizzling food and smiled.
Kit replied, "I feel like a warmed over korasant. I need to take a shower before I nurse . Where is Astraea by the way?"
Kasso nodded to the side of the counter, there was a small Orion rocker crib. "I finally got…
