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 :)

USS Sunfire - Bridge
Jenna stirred, the pain arriving before awareness, spreading through her ribs with every breath and pulsing sharply behind her right eye. Her fingers twitched against the helm. The familiar shape beneath them gave her the first piece of certainty she could find. She was still on the bridge.
She opened her eyes. Her world refused to settle, like a night of binge drinking gone wrong. Emergency lighting flickered through smoke and drifting dust. The forward bulkhead had become a jagged opening sealed only by a trembling forcefield. The main viewscreen was gone. Somewhere nearby, something sparked…

"No, we're not too late" Marie murmured as they advanced towards the wrecked hull of the Sunfire. "The bridge is mostly intact and the forcefields are holding" she commented as it came into view. "Geeez, they're a mess though, heavy casualties. Looks like they took the bad guys with them though."
Patin moved with Marie toward the wreckage, but the relief that had briefly touched her face was already gone. The closer they came, the more she could feel the wrongness of the ship around them. Emergency forcefields shimmered across ruptured sections of the bridge while sparks drifted lazily through…

Bonnie disappeared into Main Engineering with the determined stride of someone arriving at the scene of a crime. The cheerful glow that had carried her through the morning briefing had long since evaporated, replaced by the quiet focus that usually preceded very long days and very uncomfortable discoveries.
She slid into the master systems console and rested both hands on the LCARS interface. "Computer, display all subsystem command pathways modified within the last fourteen days."
The familiar chime answered almost immediately. "Working... One hundred fifty thousand, three hundred and twelve subsystem command pathways have been modified during the specified timeframe."…

Rosa released the harness. For several seconds she remained where she was, seated in the sideways cockpit with one hand braced against the console and the other hanging uselessly at her side. Her body had not yet accepted that the movement had stopped. Somewhere beyond the fractured hull, something continued to groan beneath the strain, a long metallic complaint that rose and fell through the ruined shuttle bay. Smoke drifted past the cockpit windows in slow, uncertain ribbons. Emergency lighting flickered through the haze, painting the wreckage in alternating pulses of red and darkness.
She drew a breath and pain answered. It…

“When the dust settles, the battlefield remembers every debt left unpaid.”
The weapons pod was gone. For a fraction of a second, the space where it had been seemed almost peaceful. Then the pod became a small star. There was no beginning to the explosion that the eye could follow. One instant it was a piece of the Sunfire, torn loose and tumbling away. The next, the darkness behind the ship was filled with white light.
The Dreadnaught took the center of it. Her silhouette vanished behind the expanding brilliance, swallowed so completely that for a heartbeat there was nothing…

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…
