Welcome to the USS Washington-E!
Welcome to the USS Washington-E, a post-Dominion War sim. The year is 2386. The Dominion War has been over for several years, but its aftermath is still unfolding. The Federation and the Romulans are the only two major powers, and only the Federation is stable, to a point. The Klingon Empire is still rebuilding and addressing its many wounds from the war, Cardassia is in shambles and occupied, and the Romulans are in far worse shape because of their own misdeeds than they would have outsiders believe. The Federation is now the lone superpower in the Quadrant, a role it neither wants nor enjoys. Exploration has returned, but the dangers of space have never been more pronounced. Welcome to the USS Washington, where danger and adventure lurk around every corner.

Well, April was a fun month. Everyone seemed to participate, but two of our players were particularly active and really pushed things forward. Our mission seems to be moving to its climax, but we saw plenty of great posts surrounding this fun story in April. Below you will find the April winners, and as always, I congratulate them and wish them luck as they represent the ship at the fleet level.

The shortest month of the year is over, and we are moving into March and the greenery of Spring. Before things warm up and everyone starts looking to go outside again, we did have ourselves a good month of posting. Honestly, I think the month was dominated by Lt Kono, and the awards reflect that. That isn't to say other people didn't make contributions, she just had a much larger volume of material over anyone else. As the mission seems to be moving towards its climax in the main story, I think we'll see a lot more from everyone else…

Mission: The Shuttle Incident
Posted on Wed May 13th, 2026 @ 11:38am by Captain Shran dh'Klar & Lieutenant JG Kate Kono & Lieutenant JG James Phoenix
The sky was becoming dark and darker, looking like dark sackcloth with flashes of electricity pulsing through it as volcanic lightning streaked down into the heart of the volcano, churning the magma. The once dense jungle that they had explored only a few hours ago had been obliterated, the remnants lying broken beneath his feet splintered and split from the pyroclastic explosion that had nearly killed them a few minutes ago. Shran pushed forward through the debris and the through the heat radiating from the rivers of lava as he made his way towards the volcano. He couldn't help but…

Deanna held the line against the frenzied people, allowing Sam time to work on her treatment. Suddenly four security officers materialized with several large containers marked "medical supplies." Deanna let out a sigh of relief, "Sam, our relief has finally arrived with your supplies."
Sam dared to look up from her work, breathing a sigh of relief as the doctor she had treated earlier stood from his chair, the colour having returned to his features.
"You have worked a miracle" He said simply.
"Not a miracle, medical science. The miracle is going to be distributing it to everyone before their…

Mission: The Shuttle Incident
Posted on Sat May 9th, 2026 @ 2:40pm by Ensign Aidan "A.J." Reid
AJ tore through deck four like something the ship itself had fired; tricorder in one hand, phaser in the other, boots barely grazing the plating as the red alert strobes turned the corridor into a tunnel of blood and shadow. The ship lurched hard to port and threw him sideways, but his legs found the wall, pushed off it, and kept going. The family’s biosigns pulsed on the tricorder screen: four of them, two small, all stationary, all terrified.
The transporter room door was sealed. AJ didn’t slow down. He leveled the phaser at the control panel and fired without…

Shran worked on building something in the rear compartment in haste. He would've preferred having Deanna or Inara dealing with this, but he was best qualified currently present, so it fell to him. "Status of the volcano?"
"The current status of the volcano is —" Kate's eyes went wide, the porthole's glow painting twin streaks of orange across her face as another column of magma punched into the sky. She turned from the monitor to the porthole and back again, as if one of them might have the decency to be wrong. "— is that we are, and I cannot…

"...they are preparing to fire" said Kuzma at Ops.
And Now the Continuation...
Kapowski and Lawrence looked at the Chief as he exited the Jeffries tube looking like he just did something he knew would get him in trouble. "Sorry to tell you Chief, but we can't beam down the supplies for a new reason now. The shields are up" Kapowski said dejected, the flashing red light and klaxon sounding providing the Chief with all the explanation he needed as to the situation.
"So it begins." Jon said quietly. before addressing Imik. "Fire phasers and torpedoes. target their engines and…

OCC: Ben and Kate's Quarters.

Ben sat at the desk, he was idlily scratching Kodie's ears but his mind was elsewhere. He missed Kate.
IC:
"Personal Log. Lieutenant Ben Dalton. I miss Kate. I miss her terribly. I miss her exuberance, her sense of humor, her goodness. her quirkiness. I can say for a fact that absence does not make the heart grown fonder. It makes me miss her even more. Even Kodie misses her scratching his ears and stomach."
He paused and sighed before resuming his recording. "I know she is with the captain and others on a…

"Personal Log, Lieutenant JG James Phoenix.
This is a bit of a weird log. I haven't sat down to type one of these since my assignment at Deep Space Two. I never really needed to. I usually wait until I'm off duty and alone in my quarters. I suppose I'm just bored on this road-trip with my colleagues, and I don't want to bother them while I am keeping an eye on the Bahamut's tactical readouts.
We are returning to the Washington after an intelligence conference with the brass. I am honored that the Captain asked me to represent security…

Personal Log, Ensign Janelle Barett
I was selected for my first away mission today.
I knew it was coming, statistically at least. New ensign, operations background, limited planetside exposure. Eventually the numbers align. Still, when my name was spoken on the bridge, it felt unreal in a way training simulations never manage.
I do not think I smiled. I do not think I said anything unnecessary. I acknowledged the order, confirmed readiness, and did exactly what I have practiced doing for years.
Then I went to my quarters and stood there for a full minute doing absolutely nothing.
There is…

Personal log, Ensign Janelle Barett.
When I think back on my first night aboard the Washington, what stays with me is not the size of my quarters or the hum of the ship’s systems.
It is how quiet everything felt once the door closed.
The room was larger than my Academy quarters. Quieter, too. No voices through thin walls, no shared routines, only the steady, impersonal thrum of the ship, constant and unjudging. At the time, I told myself it was calming.
I remember standing there longer than necessary, posture still perfect, hands at my sides, as if waiting for…

Computer, start recording:-
I have now been on board for several days, still I have not seen nor reported to the Sinkahue or Grayson. My mind is much conflicted with these new orders from my High Command, just how they expect me to continue with my duties while remaining apart from all Federation personnel is something I at this time fail to see as possible.
It is almost as if they want this collaboration to collapse into failure, maybe the section of our Council which is pushing for us to end all contact with the Federation has finally turned the…
