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 :)

Deep Space Nine - Quarks
Quarks during this time of day was rather quite, but not enough to displease Quark, who was busy venting to Morn. Thriss and Rynn cared less. They were too busy enjoying each other's company by chatting about the newest advancements in the Starfleet Engineering space. What would you expect from two career Engineers?
"Heard the Odyssey's computer unit is ready for transport to Utopia Planitia" Thriss commented.
"I heard her keel is being laid as we speak. Doesn't she have a prototype quantum slipstream drive?" Rynn asked.
"That's what some of my friends in the…

I found out about the promotion because Commander Voss asked me to report to his office. That is rarely how anyone wants to hear the words Lieutenant Junior Grade. For most of the walk there, I was running through every possibility I could think of. I considered recent flight evaluations, maintenance reports, command assessments, and the last time I accidentally parked a shuttle outside the designated alignment tolerance. By the time I made it to his door, I'd constructed at least six explanations for why I might be in trouble.
Voss looks up from his desk when I enter. "Ensign."…

The volcano continued to rumble, each aftershock rolling beneath B'hala with enough force to make the ground tremble beneath their feet. The Architect's parchment table shuddered again, and one of the scrolls that had fallen to the ground shifted slightly across the stone.
Patin crouched and picked up the nearest scroll, brushing a little dust from its surface before carefully unfurling it. The animal skin parchment resisted at first, stiff with age even in this moment of the past, then opened beneath her hands.
Marie stepped closer, but Patin barely seemed to notice. The parchment was covered in the sort…

There are certain things you learn about a ship by flying it. You learn how quickly the deck responds when you ask for more power. You learn which thrusters hesitate before answering and which ones seem almost eager. You learn how the inertial dampers feel when the ship has been running hard for too long, and you learn which warnings can wait three seconds while you finish a maneuver and which ones deserve your attention immediately.
You also learn that Lieutenant Kade has absolutely no respect for a pilot who leaves a perfectly good shuttle sitting in the flight bay.…

The memory dissolved without ceremony, the warmth of the little tent thinning into the strange light of the timestream until even the sound of her Fa's voice was gone. B'hala remained before them, impossibly old and impossibly beautiful, its towers rising above the ancient landscape as though the city had been carved directly from Bajor's dreams.
Patin stared at it.
For a moment, wonder won. She could almost see the child she had been looking through the eyes of her father, believing in impossible cities and stars that listened. Then the memory twisted. One moment they were standing inside a…

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…

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…
