{Quoted Posts} [ Pieter - Delirium] images.app.goo.gl/yXWvPEGsYHPbNBUi9With the club closing at 5am like it usually did, Pieter had overseen the clean up and restock, before being approached with a proposition that he hadn't been able to refuse. Of course he still had a thing for Felicity Ellis, even after all of this time and besides what she had proposed, sounded like a lot of fun. The item that would be revealed was already in place, however he wasn't going to make this easy. When the large man who some people found both intimidating and handsome, spotted his incoming prey. He grinned, recognising one of the group immediately, although Kova was certainly not forgotten either. With the trio about to enter, it was time for the show to begin. " Enter if you dare and only when you satisfy me with your dancing... you'll earn the right to continue".His booming voice reverberated around the room before the loud dance version of Call Me began to play. [Turbolift -> Delirium] Dread filled the Betazoid at the moment of realization, his own loudness spread within him faster even than Shavan’s reproach. The sensations warred for dominance in his nerves. While his embarrassment sparked and the lieutenant’s guard darkened, shame was opportunistic, and sat heavily on the backs of both. Dizzied, Ic kept his gaze to the ground. It was a trained look, well-rehearsed but unhardened, still tender enough to wince at Kova’s remark. To call this awkward was no more sufficient for the situation than suggesting the vacuum of space might be a bit nippy, please grab a sweater before you throw yourself out the airlock, ensign. Knowing that most believed silence equated to culpability, but disinterested in continuing the agony of the moment, for everyone’s sake, Ic spoke as quietly and as carefully as his current state would allow. “You’re right, sir. I was paying too much attention, and… I happened to overhear.”He couldn’t promise it wouldn’t happen again, because it would. It had happened with Sevik, Senlok, Vel’arek, Tembrok, Konn, Selrenn, and his roommate whose name he’d been sworn never to even think again it was Dolores Holiday— but this was the first time he’d done it with a commanding officer. Ic couldn’t help overhearing others’ thoughts, his congenital curse being what it was, he just hadn’t learned yet (and at his age, he wondered if he ever would) to keep that to himself. Contrary to Kova’s suggestion, he thought it was probably better left at this forever. When even the first nail in the coffin had been driven, it was because something was already dead. He followed her sniffling out of the turbolift, and thought maybe instead of following the clue, he should detour to the Blue Beta and wait for Leanna, who was probably winning this competition already. He didn’t know how long this was supposed to go on, but it certainly felt like she was ahead. Afraid to get into more trouble, though, he didn’t. It was unclear if this was something he would regret. The man who greeted them at Delirium was upsettingly attractive, which only became more upsetting when he ordered them to dance. Absolutely n o t. Ic, who had never danced in public, blanched as he stepped behind Kova. “I think you better go on without me this time.” Sometimes the best interest of the team was not staying together. [Shavan Th’zhaar - Turbolift -> Delirium]
It had been a visceral, instinctive reaction to a warning bell tripped in his mind. But of course, the idea that the ensign could be a threat was absurd. Shavan took a deep breath, quickly collecting his thoughts as if the last tense moment had never happened. “Of course,” he replied as Ic tried to explain, and Kova suggested they focus on the competition.
Although if she really wanted them to give the task their full attention, maybe she should stop making other insinuations. “And not to worry, I’m feeling like a variety of things,” he leaned in towards her and said teasingly, referring to her double entendre about ‘feeling cocky’.
Shavan then stepped out of the lift and led the way to the nightclub, which was empty at this hour except for the rather handsome owner… and an unexpected challenge. They had to dance to earn the clue, now?
Well, he’d walked right into taking the lead on this… but he was Orion, after all. Of course he could dance. And maybe it was just the thing needed to move past the earlier tension.
An amused smirk crossed his face again as he took in the song that was actually rather fitting. Ignoring Ic’s protest, Shavan gestured to the dance floor. “Well, come on. Let's see what you’ve got.” The others might not be enthusiastic, but it wouldn't be as fun alone.
Without waiting for a response, he stepped forward and started to move, adapting an Orion dance in perfect time to the music. Every movement fast-paced, seductive, designed to draw the eye.
[ Kova Sh'qaleq - Delirium] It may have been Shavan's looks that often made him the center of attention, but his rather provocative way with words had a way of keeping your attention as well. He had certainly proven that he could give as well as he got, and that barely described his rather gifted talents. As the trio made it to Delirium, Kova could see that it appeared to be relatively empty, as one would expect a night club to be at this hour. However, there was at least one occupant, Pieter. He wasted no time in pointing out that they could only enter if they danced to his satisfaction, and it appeared that the only way they would advance to the next clue would be to do just that. "He can't be serious," Kova commented, though as the music started up, it appeared the challenge had been laid. Shavan made his way onto the dance floor, and the Andorian began to wander if there was anything he did with actual fault. Meanwhile, Ic had slid behind her and suggested that they continue without him. "That is not an option," Kova stated. "If I am expected to do this, so are you." Kova reached into her pocket and placed her interactive lens[fn]Think suped-up Google Glasses[/fn] over her eyes. "Chel-E, interface with station computer. Identify song and display appropriate choreography."[... Scanning Audio... Song Found....] [... Song: Call Me... Artist: Blondie... Origin: Earth....] [... Choreography: Interactive Playback.... ]Kova briefly watched as a figure appeared on the lens, moving with in sync with the song. It only took her a few moments to get the appropriate dance scheme. "Chel-E, continue playback and allow guest-user, Ic Arbrell, access to current files and privacy mode." Kova removed the interactive lens from over her eyes and offered them to Ic. "Use them, or don't. Privacy mode will make the lens opaque and show you a virtual overlay of the club sans distractions." The virtual overlay was clever enough to manipulate Ic's immediate area so that he would avoid colliding with any physical obstacles. The Andorian all but abandoned the interactive lens in Ic's care as she began to move into club, mimicking most of the choreography she'd seen, though improvising many of the moves with a bit of Andorian flare.

{Quotes} [Eta Borir - Main Hanger]
When Syl pushed herself between Eta and the Bajorans, the Cardassian was so surprised that she stepped aside without resistance. But when the woman called security, she sighed loudly. If Syl also turned off movies when they got exciting, Eta knew right away who she certainly wouldn't want to watch a movie with. With a wave of her hand, she gently pushed Syl aside, pushing her out of the Bajorans' field of attack.
Good, the Bajorans wanted to make Eta angry? Eta was angry now. But she swallowed her anger with a curl of her lips and didn't let out a single growl. Certainly progress, but only in homeopathic doses.
But the progress was immediately put down again, when the two gentlemen presented in a provocative manner what they had lost due to the Cardassians. Eta had to tense her back muscles in order to fight the goose bumps that were running down her spine. Very briefly, she turned her gaze away from the Bajorans, pressed her lips together, and then let herself be bombarded by Bajoran stares again. She would rather have bathed in acid. The unpleasant film that stretched over the Cardassian made her mind go blank, searching for points of attack at that moment.
The threat came, and Eta walked closer to the Bajorans until she could feel their breath on her warm scales. "This is not the first time I have been threatened. I'm going to stay on Front Ear, and I so don't care if you like it or not, get used to it! Have a nice day."
With that, the Cardassian turned around and hoped that the Bajorans also left without comment. Then she cleared her throat. "After this little interruption, we can finally continue on our way, can't we?"
[Ens. Syl O'Connell - Front Ear - Main Hangar] Syl's anger only flared more as the men continued to throw their accusations around, but she didn't resist when Eta pushed her aside. The other woman was handling the confrontation well, and it only infuriated the human more how used to this she must be. While Syl didn't know the Cardassian's age, she looked far too young to have played an active role in anything that happened to the Bajorans during the Occupation... But she still had to pay daily for the crimes of her elders committed. Thankful that the men seemed disinclined to stick around until security showed up, she nodded at Eta's request to leave. They'd wasted too much time here already. "You guys go ahead," she told Leanna and Eta, not taking her eyes off the men just yet. "I'll check the EV suits really quick." Hoping either security arrived, or the men left, before the confrontation turned physical, Syl moved away and crossed the hangar to the storage locker that held the EV suits and other equipment. Opening up the panel, she first searched the boots, turning them upside down and reaching inside to see if she could feel anything. [Valkyries - Main Hangar] The loss coming from the two Bajorans felt like a knife directly into her heart. How many times had she heard stories like this and how grief could turn good people into monsters who couldn't rest until they had their revenge. Eta might not of directly been responsible for the loss of their loved ones. However it seemed that any Cardassian would bare the brunt of that uncontrollable anger and need for some kind of justice,the kind that only they could deliver. When they then turned on Syl, Leanna could sense her irritation. However once Security responded it appeared that they were keen to leave before they showed up. Lea understood the threat that was made and to be honest this whole encounter had left her slightly shaken as Eta spoke to the two men, before suggesting that they continue. All thoughts of the exercise had been temporarily expunged from her mind until she refocused on what was being said by Eta then Syl. " Yeah sure, although we won't be too far ahead" she said wanting to be cautious after what had just happened. Turbing to Eta, Lea then made a suggestion. " We'll wait for her outside, near the turbo lift". [Eehir Digen & Jalud Sunn - Main Flight Hangar]It was no surprise to Eehir and Jalud that the arrogant Cardassian had to have the last word. They'd suffered untold crimes at the hands of her people, yet she felt zero compassion for them. The human Cardy-lover, too, had made her way onto their hit list. Once they were a safe distance away, the pair turned their backs on the trio and made for the turbolifts. They stepped inside and disappeared. Meanwhile, a Security team had mustered and were making their way to the Main Hangar, which happens to be completely devoid of anything out of the ordinary.

[Delirium, Promenade] It was torture to watch Shavan move like that. Sweet, hot, rhythmic torture, as he finally understood the first verse— Ic pouted at Kova’s refusal to hear his resignation, a mask for the mixing of feelings that moved to the cover me with kisses, baby in a painful shade of teal. It had been more an offer to leave the competition completely so they’d have a chance of winning than it was to get out of embarrassing himself with dancing, and although he wasn’t sure she knew that, it was clear to him that she was trying to help anyway. Whether she believed that they could still win, or if she actually liked him well enough to keep him around, he couldn’t tell. Even if she just wanted to see him embarrass himself in front of Shavan and die in D minor, she was going out of her way to do it… with a really cool thing. When she offered the lens ready to go, he turned it over with his usual curiosity for a moment before he put it on. Everyone but the choreographer vanished from view— but not so from the periphery of his feeling. Emotions come, I don’t know why, cover up love’s alibi—Betazoid dance was symbiotic in nature, relying on being perfectly in tune with one’s music and partner to produce a compelling performance. Almost entirely improvised, it had next to no recognizably standard moves but for any of the common nonverbal gestures used in everyday communication to emphasize a feeling. It was made entirely of feeling, a shared emotion between two and tune, displayed on the outside. Although Ic Arbrell knew every move in the choreography of each of Madonna’s videos and major concert performances, he could only follow it without the distraction of someone else. Independence of her work conflicted with what he knew, and the midpoint was disastrous. But he had two someone elses in the same boat to help him through Blondie. He didn’t count on matching emotion, and it would have been a whole lot easier if no one could see him either, but he’d do his best. “Chel-E, end choreography,” he suggested quietly. To his surprise, it did. Hmm.. “Chel-E, take a message to display for Kova— You're the best.” He lifted the lens to take one last longing look at the lieutenant he knew he really shouldn’t have, and with a resolute sigh (leaving the berries safely on a table nearby) headed in to join his team on the dance floor. When you’re ready, we can share the wine, call me!Whatever protestations Ic had about dancing in front of other people was criminally unfounded. He was no Orion, and it was clear he wasn’t suited to solo performance, but a little each of his partners’ shifting moods on top of his own was enough to get into a groove. His only comfort right now, though, was knowing that the bouncer had seen a whole lot worse.

[ Pieter - Delirium] Oh this was beginning to be very entertaining for the club owner, especially as the youngest one of the trio hesitated as, to whether he was going to participate or not. It would be a shame for them to fail now and he certainly didn't want to disappoint the Goddess of his unrequited heart. When Shavan moved to the dance floor first, Pieter grinned wickedly. Watching from his spot just beyond the edge of the dance area, he was hopeful that they would succeed. Then again he wasn't about to make this too easy as Kova and the young Betazoid joined their team mate. " Is that all you've got, I've seen grannies who dance better than you three. So how about we make this more interesting". Not waiting for an answer and purely to see their reactions, Pieter changed the song to something even more up tempo. " DJ play, Everytime We Touch".[NB - Its the Cascada song ]

[ Shavan Th’zhaar - Delirium] Shavan couldn't resist having some fun with this, as both his teammates joined him on the dance floor and proved that they had nothing to be embarrassed about. He watched them move out of the corner of his eye as each found their own rhythm. However, Pieter apparently wasn't ready to give up the clue just yet… and of course, they were supposed to be doing this together. Taking it up a step further as the song changed, he slipped between Kova and Ic, nearly touching both. Aware of their presence, he responded to their movements while continuing to dance with a seductive flair, both to avoid a collision and to be seen dancing together. With a wicked grin that invited them to actually touch, he caught Kova’s eye and motioned for her to move closer still. Kova Sh'qaleq Ic Arbrell Leanna Mazal

[Courtroom] Dr. Hunt remained quiet as it was clear the judge did not like his comments. Some people might be intimidated but, in his mind, there is nothing shameful about standing on to your teammates. Part of team building is getting along with everyone and standing up if no one ever stands up for your team then there is a chance that they would fail. He tried not to judge his teammates too harshly as they were all people. He listened as both Candy and Eliska were asked to say something positive to one another. And he observed as Jurgha took the lead and was dealing with the problem in a diplomatic matter. He raised an eyebrow as both Eliska and Candy said positive things to one another. This team is turning into the most dysfunctional family he has ever seen He thought to himself. For a moment he could feel that the Commander would be proud. As hard as it was he reacted by being silent and trusting his teammates. “ Your Honor, The question itself leads to a wrong answer. It is not to me to judge my own worth is up to my teammates. After getting my first guess wrong on the second clue. We as a team changed our thinking and were able to figure out that the clue was not a place but a person. This was a decision that was made with everyone's cooperation and input. To say that I did a single action by myself would be a lie. To say that I would be able to figure it out myself and alone would also be a lie. I cannot claim credit for anything individually. There is no “I” in a team. Your honor” Hunt said as he finished his piece. “ I’m sorry if my answer disappoints you, your honor”. Hunt said and he slightly bowed his head. He was ready for the Judge to insult him at any moment. ["The Hon. Judge" Maria Callas - Courtroom 1, Deck S5]Judge Maria Callas was pleased! Each of the members seemed comfortable speaking about how the others had contributed, and absolutely answered to her satisfaction. "Good, very good! Thank you both."It had all been going so well, until the arrogant idiot opened his mouth and refused to answer the Judge's very simple question. "No, Dr. Hunt, it is not for you to judge. It is for me to judge. Again, you disrespect me in my court and you let down your team. It was a simple task, and you failed."She stared, disappointed at the four of them, then broke eye contact and looked down at her PADD. "Excuse me a moment, I must consult with... a higher power."The Judge began tapping a message. Maria Callas waited for the response, comfortable in the uncomfortable silence. From they galleys came the sound of munching popcorn and whispers. Less than a minute later, while the team would have to wait, uncertain as to their future in the game, the PADD pinged. The Judge looked up. "Jurgha, daughter of Khar, approach the bench if you please." She held out the gavel - the object to be gifted at the successful completion of this task. "Despite one member's attempted sabotage, you have been spared. Congratulations. Daughter of Khar," Maria Callas stared at the klingon as she held out the gavel in her palm for her to take. "Get your team in line."With that, the Judge stood. "All rise!"And the Judge swept out of the room. On the gavel was written only two words: From a bench came the sound of someone coughing furiously. It was followed by multiple thumps to the back, then a horrible, guttural sound emanating from a spectator's chest. "Help! Someone! He's choking on his popcorn!" [ Jurgha, daughter of Khar - Courtroom] Jurgha continued to glare at the judge, incensed. Of course she did not expect to win by taking part alone. However, they had not encountered either of the other teams since entering the Blue Beta, so she could not truthfully speak to their progress in comparison. Which was why she had made the simple case that her team was performing well. Now it was up to them to not ruin it. She listened while they took their turns, growing more unimpressed with each one. However, it would seem that their combined performance had been adequate enough. As it should be. Victorious, Jurgha stepped forward to take the gavel when instructed to. “Very well. I will be sure to."With the object in her possession, she immediately looked for the writing. “Full Circle,” she read aloud, then looked toward the rest of the team. “Does that mean we have to go back to the Observation Lounge where we started, or- "
There was a sudden disturbance and she half started toward the choking man, but then remembered they were in the company of a doctor. Hopefully he wouldn't mess this up, she thought as she moved out of the way so he could get to the source of the commotion. [ Cwm Eliska Bremmer - Courtroom, Front Ear Station ]Truth be told, Bremmer was not sure at all how her assessment of Candy Barr would be received; the woman was infuriating, condescending, and had attached herself to Hunt with indecent speed, yet both Human women had managed to say something positive about the other... and the Judge had been pleased with those responses. However, when it came to Hunt's turn, the man proved yet again that his judgement might not be the most reliable when for a second time he back-talked to the judge. Seriously, what the hell was he thinking? And, so it would seem, he had annoyed her, and any dreams Eliska had of the prize started to evaporate; granted, she didn't know for certain what she wanted just yet, but that didn't mean she didn't want the damn prize! And then, she let out a sigh of relief as, it would seem they passed that particular ordeal and a final clue was passed on. Full Circle. Well, that certainly was obvious. "Sounds about right... excuse me."Well, heading for their starting point would have to wait for now, and Eliska was one to spring into motion. "MAKE A HOLE," she shouted as she vaulted the barrier between the front of the courtroom and the spectators' area and she crossed the distance to the fellow who was choking, and wasting no time she hauled him out of the row of seats and wrapped her sinewy arms around his waist, jamming her fist against his stomach, and she none-too-gently performed the Heimlich maneuver.

[ Kova Sh'qaleq - Delirium] Hearing Pieter's voice over the music was mildly impressive until the Andorian heard what he had to say. Had his attention been solely on Ic to warrant such a comment. She was tempted to inform Pieter what he should do about his clearly failing eyesight. Yet, Ellis' rules came to mind once more. And perhaps the selection of words she was prepared to share in response to his critique wouldn't serve their goal of completing this portion of the competition. He then called for a different song to play. Kova variated her movements a bit more to match this particular song. She had seen that humans appreciated the act of flailing their manes as they danced. When the opportunity presented itself, Kova made certain to thread her ivory locks through her fingers in a rhythmic manner along with the beat periodically as she danced. Her antennae flexed slightly, sensing Shavan as he moved between her and Ic. As she turned, and saw him beckoning her to move closer, there was the slightest part of her that wondered if it was solely for the purpose of completing this competition. She did so, her antennae along with her sight helped her to modify her movements to compliment Shavan's, even as she moved closer to him. Her eyes began to focus on his even as her body responded in concert with the movements of his body. Now, the question was whether Ic could be convinced to follow suit and move closer as well. After all, how many people would say no to a Shavan sandwich?

[Eta Borir - Main Hanger -> near the turbolift]
Eta nodded briefly and looked anxiously at Syl. Of course, Syl was an adult and no child in need of Eta's puppy protection, but still the Cardassian was reluctant to let her go alone. So she paid attention to the Bajorans for a moment longer, glancing alternately from the door to the Bajorans to make some emphasis on leaving. After the Bajorans had left, Eta nodded once more to Syl and then followed Leanna. "Just in case the clue is not there, any ideas where could it be?". From her perspective, it was only beneficial to exhaust all possibilities.

[Ens. Syl O'Connell - Front Ear - Main Hangar]Once the Bajorans had finally left, Syl let herself relax, her shoulders aching from the tension. She was definitely going to need to take her pain meds when she got back to her quarters, whenever that would be. She'd been needing them a lot since getting back from Caldonia... But at least they were still effective. It didn't take long for her to determine the clue wasn't among the EV suits, and ahe quickly left the hangar to rejoin her teammates. Passing the security officers that were looking a little confused, she gave them a smile. "Thanks for coming. A couple Bajorans were harassing my Cardassian teammate, but they left right after I called you. Appreciate your help, though."Not wanting to waste any more time than they already had, she kept walking until she reached the other women. "Nothing there, so I guess our next stop is the armory. Any ideas if we don't find it there, either?" She asked them as she stepped into the turbolift, and directed it to the security node. She was still fairly certain it would have something to do with Eta... But if the Cardassian woman couldn't think of a connection, then Syl certainly wouldn't be able to. "What sort of work do you do?" She asked her, both for fulfilling the 'getting to know you' part of the exercise, as well as hoping to find the missing link for the clue.

[Delirium, Promenade] Ic’s eyes widened to their largest. What did he mean that wasn’t good enough? As if his heart wasn’t already racing, he could hear it now, loud in his ears to the beat of ancient Europop. His nerves turned entirely to synth, sparking with his teammates’ almost-mischief as they moved in a little closer, though still he could not see them. Closer. Like this was just so easy. He realized somewhere in the lyrics why that might have been. It twisted like a blade in his guts. He supposed that it only made sense. It made a lot more sense than the Lieutenant actually being interested in him. For anyone else, it might have been perfectly easy to move on. Any other Betazoid! No matter what the adverse condition, so many lived for the surprise chance of getting closer to others in whatever way that might have meant, because it meant a stronger bond in the end. He was afraid to admit that he was one of them. The fear of rejection syncopated. But if this was it, no more chances, whatever. He’d ask for a transfer tomorrow anyway. “Sorry, sir,” he said over the music, stepping closer to Shavan with a sense that was not sight. “You can blame Kova for this.”If she wasn't going to let him quit before they started, she wasn't going to let him off the hook now. All those provocative Madonna moves with their fantasy dance partners in his quarters found their home here, with full contact.

[Valkyries - Main Hangar/Turbolift] When agreeing to go ahead at Syl's request and Eta following her so that they could wait outside for her. Leanna hoped by staying as close as possible, they could easily run back if the clue was in the EV suits. Although the Betazoid realised that they should of insisted that they stay, hindsight was a wonderful thing and instantly regretted her decision. Maybe it was the after effects of their encounter with the Bajorans and still being shaken by it or well maybe she would never know the exact reason. Luckily the Bajorans had left without any further confrontation and there was some relief. That feeling increased by the arrival of Security and Syl catching up to them, which also calmed the regret Lea had experienced. Happy that they hadn't gotten very far as they entered the lift and discussed the next clue and possible locations now that they only had the armoury to check next. " Nothing that comes to mind at the moment" Lea admitted, hoping for a sudden burst of inspiration as Syl asked Eta what she did. Hopefully her answer would help with the search, if the armoury proved to be another bust.

[ Pieter - Delirium] Changing the music and upping the ante, was definitely paying off as the two officers and civilian rose to the challenge that he had presented them. Although a part of Pieter looked forward to giving Felicity an update later, he was also a little sad that this would soon be over. Testing the trio had been so much fun and perhaps he could introduce a dance challenge as part of the weekly entertainment. Grinning wickedly at his moment of genius, Pieter focused on the group as they got closer to one another, allowing the music to take over so they would lose control. That was all part of the Delirium experience, one that had reached a satisfactory conclusion as the music began to fade. As the lights brightened to reveal Pieter standing next to the coat check. He smiled brightly as he spoke to the trio, " Congratulations you may continue and you also receive VIP passes for tonight. A little extra since you all impressed me" He said as he moved out of the way, in order for them to gain access.

[Courtroom] Hunt observed as that the judge was not pleased with his answer. He remained looking at her as he was sure it was not the answer that she wanted but he did disagree with the philosophy she was trying to impose on him and them. Hunt listened as she mentioned that he was trying to sabotage the team. He looked down as he felt bad for a moment but he believed that they made it this was a team. As they got the clue and listened to Jurgha reading out loud. Hunt took a second and apologize to the team “ I apologize if I lowered our chances of success. It was not my intention. But I do believe in my words that we have made it this far because of all of you. Even with all our flaws we are in this together as a team.” Hunt said as he smiled. He knew that they did not pass this challenge based on him. But that is the trust and letting teammates lift up important. The attention went to the clue which was full circle. Hunt listened to the team. He was also trying to think of other options a person, an item, or circle of life. Before he could say anything of import. As all of the sudden he also heard a person choke. Hunt went toward the person and began observing the individual. Before, he could see if the passage was completely blocked to choose to hit the back or ask for consent since the victim was conscious. Eliska leaped in and perform the Heimlich maneuver which she was performing well. Following the idea that you can have to many cooks in the kitchen. “ Would you all help me setting a perimeter? The patient needs room to breathe.” Hunt asked to his team. Knowing that of course there would be bystanders. “ Ok everyone let’s give the patient room to breathe. C’mon let’s give them some room.” Hunt said. After a person interrupted “ I’m sure the Security Personnel would not have issues giving autograph after saving the life to the patient” He said to a random bystander that wanted to take a holovideo of the event for a memory purposes or to upload it. He learned on his carrier that people to store and safe keep the randomness things. Hunt then trying to give them space to work. Hunt figured that once the food was dislodged he could scan the patient to make sure everything is ok. Most cases everything checks out and there is no bigger worries but better be safe than sure. He then as he was moving the bystanders back as he tried to observe the culprit. Popcorn He though. Should be light and relatively easy to remove. As he then wondered Who the heck brings popcorn to court?Tags Shavan Th'zhaar Eliska Bremmer Felicity Ellis

[ Shavan Th’zhaar - Delirium] Falling into sync with Kova as she stepped closer, Shavan responded to her in what was surely an impressive show to anyone watching. From behind him he heard Ic speak up over the music.. but before he could question what he had to apologize for, or tell him to quit with the sirs, he found himself pulled into dancing with the Betazoid in earnest. Shavan grinned, throwing himself into the contact and pushing it further as their bodies brushed together in time with each other and the music. He couldn’t help admiring the way Ic’s slim figure moved under his touch, the provocative gestures drawing him in. As did his youthful good looks in the flashes where they faced each other, at one moment his gaze trailing over Ic’s lips at an every time we kiss. Aware of Kova also still tantalizingly close on the other side, he twisted between them, taking his own dancing a step up again as he moved in response to complement them both. It was almost disappointing when the song ended and the lights came on. After all… that had not entirely been an act for the sake of the competition, nor was it only the exertion that made his heart race. Slowly he came to a stop, not stepping back from either of them immediately. When he had caught his breath, Shavan leaned in to whisper quietly to Ic. “I saw nothing to be sorry for.” And with the VIP passes came the invitation to pick this up again tonight. With that, he turned away and approached Pieter, who he definitely wouldn't mind dancing with either. “Thanks. I’ll be there,” Shavan replied with a grin as he took the pass, then moved on to search the coat rack. Kova Sh'qaleq Ic Arbrell Leanna Mazal

I’ll be there,” Shavan replied with a grin as he took the pass, then moved on to search the coat rack. [ Kova Sh'qaleq - Delirium] From this particular trial, one would find it difficult to discern what Commander Ellis' true intentions had been for this competition. The music was nothing but a conductor as it directed the bodies of all three of them to move in harmony. Had the song been any longer, proximity would hardly have been a concern. It wasn't until Pieter spoke that she recalled his was still there. Her eyes lingered upon Shavan a moment longer, and then towards Ic, whom it seemed didn't have a problem with boundaries any longer. The Andorian finally put a little distance between herself and her companions as they peeled their bodies from one another. Pieter had told them that they had completed the assignment, and because he had impressed them had given them VIP passes for the evening. "Of course we have," said Kova to the larger man, as if any other outcome had ever been possible. She stepped forward and retrieved the pass with a slight smirk and a gracious nod. She then moved on towards the coat rack, looking around as Shavan began to search the rack itself. "What exactly are we supposed to be looking for?" she asked. Her mind thought about the earlier clue. "The clue said we'd lose our mind on this dance floor, and pick it up again when we leave. Mind... head... could it be a hat?" Of course the Andorian wasn't ruling anything out... especially if the clue was more obvious than she was making it out to be.
