Chief, Brad just ran into the gym and collapsed from sheer terror. He claims there is a shrieking, wailing phantasm in the Jeffries Tube. I'm sending him back in there with a disruptor, because a true warrior confronts their fears! So there may be some minor scorching to clean up later.
I'm glad Brad escaped after falling into the ventilation system in the shuttlebay.
He was having a bad time there, the other day. Woke me up from nap twice.
You're on a Starfleet station, Coach. If there's a problem that hasn't been solved, it's because the engineering team hasn't thrown enough science at it yet. Here, take these proton-arc gauntlets and make Kahless proud.
Chief? You know you left your comm badge on in the tunes again? Morn won't stop talking about how much he loves your singing voice and is trying to get Quak to book you; but Riker is trying to be your "one man trombone band" and I think Quark is about to say yes to him again
Security! We have a multiple-O'Brien situation again.
Have Odo be on the lookout for additional O'Briens. @coachgowron.bsky.social , do you have something sharp handy? We need a blood sample from this one to prove he's not a Changeling.
Now now Chief as Garak says, it's easier to demand *cough*blackmail*cough* forgiveness than wait for authorization. He's an expert in his field and I say we have to trust him. *gives Garak a thumbs up as Garak destroys a data chip*
