Captain's Log, USS Courageous, Stardate 20852.8 - Captain Victoria Eaton
A proper mapping mission is a nice change of pace after going into battle against the Romulans. We are in the Olian System, and running sensor sweeps.
-
Captain's Log, USS Enterprise, Stardate 20854.3 - Captain Nash ka'Sharren
We have been requested by the diplomats to conduct the final phase of a trade deal with the Orions. The crew is looking forward to this, and I have had to be careful to restrain their enthusiasm. This can be a dangerous place for the unwary. The nightlife on this planet has teeth.
Well, if you ask right, anyway.

Captain's Log, USS Kearsage, Stardate 20855.6 - Captain Rachel Ainsworth
A distress call a few light years out from Tellar Prime has been received, a Yrillian vessel in distress. I have taken the Kearsage to respond.
-
Captain's Log, USS Sarek, Stardate 20855.9 - Captain T'Lorel
We have made an unexpected first contact in the Oriolis System. Their warp signatures were being masked by the unusually heavy stellar winds of the Oriolis star.
They are a race of heavy-set warriors, who are at a technological level similar to Earth a bit more than one century ago. Regrettably, they do not have deflector shields, nor an understanding of them, for a number of their small attack craft collided with our shields while performing close passes of our ship in what I am informed was intended to be a "threatening" manner. This was deemed cause for an all-out attack, however, by directing all energy to shields, we were able to render ourselves effectively impervious to harm. After waiting out their attacks, we hailed their commander and were able to return to diplomacy.

Captain's Log, Supplemental, USS Enterprise, Stardate 20856.1
Initial discussions have gone ... very well. Saurian brandy dodged, Romulan ale, dodged, and ...
Ah, it's too late for this, I'll make my report in the morning.
-
Captain's Log, Supplemental, USS Kearsage, Stardate 20856.2
We have arrived in the outer reaches of the Basroil system, and have encountered the YSS Luthu, which has suffered the misfortune of terrible helmsmanship. While navigating the asteroid field, they got too close to an asteroid and collided with one, shearing off one of their warp engines entirely. However, they are using a very peculiar plasma intermix which is generating very hazardous radiation that effects much of my crew, but not Yrillians. Thankfully, the Science officer and Chief Engineer have worked together on a plan to create a resonance between the two deflector dishes of our ships to create a protective bubble around our ships. With this, repairs will be able to continue. In the interim, we are learning much about Yrillian culture.
[Gain +10pp, gain +10 relations with Yrillians]

Captain's Log, Supplemental, USS Enterprise, Stardate 20856.8
Hangover avoided.
Senator Leaniss is likewise ready for more meeting; the Amarki clearly have a tremendous tolerance for alcohol. Some of my senior crew, and the diplomats, were not so fortunate.
On to business. Our arrival into the Orion system was quite the scene. Ships came out from everywhere to watch the arrival of the Enterprise-B. The reputation of our name precedes us. And, dare I say it, the reputation of her current crew. Lieutenant Stol's course into orbit was a masterpiece of flying, speed and precision, showing just what an Excelsior can do. To my frustration, everyone on the planet is seemingly trying to sell us something, usually flesh, and getting from place to place can be a problem. The Senator gave up on one particular peddler of dancing girls and hit the lot of them with the stun setting.
-
Captain's Log, Supplemental, USS Courageous, Stardate 20857.8
My crew apparently is beginning to think that I am nuts. Nonetheless, I will not leave this system yet. There is something wrong about these sensor reading, even if I cannot quite put my finger on it yet.
-
Captain's Log, Supplemental, USS Sarek, Stardate 20855.9
This new race call themselves the Dawiar, and are, I believe, even more argumentative than the Tellarites. Still, they have been willing to listen to us, and diplomatic channels have been opened.
[Gain +5 political will, new first contact starting at 15/100]
-
Captain's Log, Supplemental, USS Courageous, Stardate 20859.3
Well then. That's one for the power of late nights and Lady Grey tea. There was a misalignment between the three emitters of the sensor array. I suspect it came about during evasive action during out battle with the Romulans. Withe the sensors properly calibrated, we have uncovered a deposit of easily accessible special materials.
[Gain +25 sr]
-
Captain's Log, Supplemental, USS Enterprise, Stardate 20859.6
We have the deal. Doctor Asurva and Lieutenant Leaniss were instrumental in making sure nothing could derail proceedings, and truth be told the most challenging part of the mission was simply riding heard on overeager officers.
[Gain +25 sr from a one-off trade deal between the Federation and Orion, gain +10 to relations with Orion]
