Sciforums Fleet

Tiberius began to brainstorm. He'll need to connect the generator with the Central Power Unit(CPU). Then he'll need to do a power supply check to see if it works. Then he'll need to build an adapter/expander array to get the shield to form around the Viper in a perfect fit. Then he'll need to construct a console to turn on/off the shields.

"A Crew Chief's work is never done."
 
Razor after searching for an hour found one. Picking it up grunting with the effort he muttered to himself "damn generator has to be made out of Titaniam." literally dropping it on the hover cart he saw the hover cart drop to a few centimeters of the ground wher a moment ago it had been a foot above it. pushing the cart out razormanuvered it to the viper and was about to lift it up when he smelled food looking over he saw that thier dinner was here. "I think it's time for a break."
 
Tiberius picked up a sandwhich, took a bite, then got onto a roller(the things mechanics use to get under cars). He layed on his back and slid underneath the Viper.
 
"Or not." Razor took a few bites of his Calamari before crawling into the inside of the viper above Tiberius helping him move stuff around.
 
Dave had had his first shower. He had read the manual on how to look after his bioskin and this was one of the requirements. He stepped out of the shower cubicle, naked and glistening, and stood in front of the junior rating he'd tasked with accompanying him.
"BEEP. Towel please."
The young man stood there, mouth agape, and eventually handed him the towel.
"BEEP. Thank you, ensign Lamborghini. That will be all."
The young man, just and extra and therefore not entitled to any lines, simply nodded and stumbled out of the room.
Dave began to pat down his naked, supple body, oblivious to his nudity.

A while later, Dave reclined in his quarters, scanning the computer readouts of the ship's progress.
Some of the engineering crew were attempting shield upgrades, it seemed. He felt he should've been made aware of this but, after considering what his now-dead friend The Flemster would've done, he simply ignored it.
He pressed the intercom button on the wall next to him.
"BEEP. Flemster to the bridge. ETA to Pluto Station?"
 
Umm....because I just read a book about that guy?

Okay I will say it straight. You don't know Cato's influence far and wide don't you?

Cato was Caesar's rival, he fought for freedom and paid the ultimate price. His legacy is great however. The founding fathers of the United States of America found inspiration and courage in Cato. Many speeches used quotes from Cato. General Washington ordered the play Cato be preformed at Valley Forge to heighten morale. Also if there was no Cato, no USA.

The speech "Give me liberty, or give me death," speech was inspired from Marcus Porcius Cato.
 
"Sir, I heard that you are 15 years of age," Lieutenant Cato said,

Shin then responded,

"Yes, I am 15, the average age for operational ESSCPA Super Soldiers is currently 16, we are of the same rank, no need to call me sir, Shin will do fine,"

"Super Soldiers are really young huh? I am 21 years old myself," Cato said,

Shin then said,

"We trained from day 1, that is the reason,"
 
"Okay, grab the shiled generator and place it right in here. Then i'll drill the thing into place and we can start hooking it up."

OUT OF GAME: Flemster, we're giving the Vipers shields, just so you know.
 
finnally the bolts were in Razor released his grip and let it sit on the plate flexing his stiff finger Razor looked through the gap at Tiberius. "hand me the power cord. I can reach the generator from here."
 
"Oh. Well this isn't my normal work so...... yeah. You get the point." Reaching over Razor grabbed the cord and plugged it into the shield generator. "now what?"
 
"I joined up when I was 18," Cato said, he then continued, "Just three years ago, a lot less then your 15 years,"

Shin then said, "I just have as much real combat experience as you, however,"
 
"Now I need to make sure the power is flowing to the generator." Tiberius slid out and got on his feet. He looked around for the electricity checking device. "Ah, here it is."
