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 :)

Mission: For Bajor!
Posted on Fri Nov 21st, 2025 @ 3:00pm by Commander Jenna Ramthorne & Lieutenant Commander Bonnie "Bon-Bon" Durnell & Remal Kajun & Patin & Captain Rhenora Kaylen & Commander Savar cha'Salik hei-Surak Talek-sen-deen & Commander Dean House & Lieutenant Commander Aurora Vali & Lieutenant JG Micheal Stevens & Ensign Kitiuas Thenis ie-Jia'anKahr & Commander Jennifer Baldric
Dane slipped through the wormhole during the calamity, silent and cowardly, leaving others to clean up his mess and most likely die for him. The portal flickered angrily, its teather to the mirror universe now tenuous and unstable. A myriad of colours flickered through its membrane like a bubble with detergent, angrily swirling, mixing and colliding.
Rhenora's shot followed as he stepped through, and she would never know if her aim was true. The pieces of the puzzle were shifting, MU Bonnie, MU Coy and MU Dean closing in on the Sunfire's team. The Captain took stock, analysing who the…

Patin stepped backward into a fold of time and space, slipping into a vantage point where minutes behaved like obedient pets and causality forgot it had teeth. She wanted to observe. After all, once you set a line of metaphysical charges, it’s polite to make sure the fuse burns the way you intended.
Below her, time resumed with a shudder.
The Nausicaan’s shot, once a perfect lance of death, veered, curving as though reconsidering its life choices. It sailed past Yitka’s shuttle, hissed through a narrow gap in fate, and slammed into a tower of fuel barrels someone had poorly…

Vekar’s jaw clenched as the Nausicaan’s massive frame toppled into the snow, smoke rising from the wound in his chest. He turned just in time to see Coy’s nimble fighter jolt violently, the micro-torpedo slamming into her own hull, a flash of fire and debris bursting like a cruel joke of physics gone wrong. The roar of the portal behind him mixed with the shriek of metal and the howl of wind until even his thoughts came out as a growl. His composure cracked, the cold mask of command giving way to pure fury. His cheeks puffed as he bellowed…

The temple shifted, its harmonic whimsy edging towards a quiet discord, with an almost hesitant breathe being held. For once, the future was uncertain, in all things. In the distance the celestial beings hovered over a representation on what was happening on the planet below. A murmur rolled around the group as they pondered intently.
The ‘Nozzie’ is in peril. Is this a new lesson? They asked all at once.
Patin folded her arms, brow arched. “Lesson? It’s about to be a funeral if you lot don’t quit gawking.”
We do not meddle.
“Right. Except when you do. You meddled…

The Celestial Temple shimmered in its endless golden folds, time pooling like honey over glass. Where mortals saw eternity, Patin saw potential energy, just waiting to explode.
She appeared with a sound that wasn’t quite a sound, half laugh, half thunderclap, and shook her head at the stillness around her. “Every time I come here, you all look like a painting someone forgot to finish.”
The Celestial Beings shimmered into coherence, threads of consciousness brightening into forms vaguely human, vaguely divine, always uncomfortably luminous.
We are complete.
Patin smirked. “No, you’re complacent. There’s a difference.”
A ripple passed through the…

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…

Alright, here it is. Quinn's final request before I ship out. A personal log. I’ve never seen the point of one of these. My memory is, and always has been, perfect. But I obliged. As I always do with him.
I'm packing now. Or, what passes for packing. The reality modulator is humming, folding my few possessions into pocket-sized singularities. A few tools, my meditation sphere, the memories. The memories are what feel heaviest.
It's strange, but the thought of this new post on the Sunfire brings everything back to the beginning. Or, rather, the end. My end. I still…

Personal Log, Stardate 49011.4
Admiral Quinn asked for a favor, and I've accepted. He feels I'm the right fit to serve aboard the USS Sunfire, an Akira-class vessel. They're short two officers: a Strategic Operations Officer and an Assistant Chief Engineer. Given my skills, the operations post is the natural choice.
The Sunfire is currently en route, and I'm to meet them at Deep Space 9. I've always admired the Akira-class design—sleek, powerful, and built for a fight. Serving on one, even temporarily, is a welcome opportunity. I’ve packed my gear and am looking forward to the challenge. I'll make…
