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 :)

=Security Office- USS Sunfire=
Michael sat in the security office, going over reports that has stacked up on his desk. He looked at one pad that was to do with Operations and the requisitions for the photon torpedoes and the new weapons systems for the Sunfire. This was not very good in the way that this was being handled from the report in front of him stated that majority of the weapons systems including the photon torpedoes well not to be delivered until Tuesday, but that was not the worst thing he had to report this to the senior…

Posted on Tue May 12th, 2026 @ 12:19am by Patin & Captain Marie Batel
One second Patin stood at Rhenora’s shoulder, the heat of battle humming through a ship that refused to die. The next, the pressure vanished. Sound thinned. Light stretched. The bridge, the smoke, the bodies, the urgency of it all pulled away like breath leaving lungs that had forgotten how to hold it.
Patin stilled. Her eyes shifted once, sharp, already knowing. “...Ah,” she muttered, low and almost amused. “There it is.” She acknowledged they had finally crossed some invisible line.
The Temple reasserted itself without apology. Columns rose where bulkheads had been. Mist replaced fire. The echo of consequence lingered…

“Victory is not the moment the enemy falls. It is the moment you decide the chaos no longer owns you.”
Nausicaan Raider Vessel
The deck plates of the raider vibrated in uneven pulses, a low, agitated hum that traveled up through feet and into bone. Consoles flickered in sickly bursts of light, then dimmed again as if something unseen pressed against the ship’s systems and refused to let go.
On the main display, the USS Sunfire hung in the field like wounded prey, her hull darkened, movement sluggish, drifting where the asteroids guided her. Around her, the hunt had slowed.…

“A prisoner is not taken for what they are… but for what they can be made to give.”
The I.S.S. Sunfire cut through warp with quiet certainty, her engines holding a steady, predatory rhythm as starlight stretched thin beyond the hull. The ship had already shed the chaos of the hunt, leaving behind only purpose. A course locked. A destination waiting. Two hours remained.
Within the holding compartment, the lighting stayed low by design, enough to see, never enough to soften. The space carried a deliberate emptiness, broken only by the hum of containment fields and the presence of tools…

“Most Boarding actions rarely begin with courage, but rather something weaker... a moment where the lights dim and everyone realizes they are suddenly mortal.”
U.S.S. Sunfire
The USS Sunfire drifted through the asteroid field with wounded grace, her great hull moving on fading momentum as the last of her shield envelope collapsed into darkness. A ripple of failing light rolled across the ship’s surface before vanishing entirely, leaving only the cold gleam of emergency illumination flickering through scattered viewports.
Inside the vessel, the deck itself carried a subtle vibration beneath every footstep, the sound of a ship fighting to keep…

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…
