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.

The midnight hour has come and passed, the creatures that thirst for blood have been put back into their crypts for another year, and we are moving on as October is over. It was a great month and the mission really seemed to just hum along. I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did.
Now then, time for some awards. I have to give them to somebody, but honestly, all of you are deserving of awards in my book for your performance in October. Hopefully it will carry over into the month of November and our new mission…

On this day, September 8, 1966 the debut of the original Star Trek with the TOS crew we have always loved came on and changed the world forever. Capt Kirk, Spock, Dr. McCoy, Scotty, Uhura, Sulu, and Chekov gave us 3 seasons worth of missions in which we saw Gene Roddenberry's vision of the future with humanity boldly going into the final frontier.
I wasn't around personally to see TOS air originally, but I watched it in reruns with my family as a child. My father in particular liked TOS, particularly Kirk and Scotty. I think we can all find…

ON:
[Holodeck Two]
James walked quickly through the corridor. He wasn't in any rush, he just felt like walking fast. His destination: Holodeck Two. He needed to clear his head after the last few missions. For him they weren't nearly as bad as the mission to the German colony or mirror universe. In the weeks since, he'd been busy working and trying to clear is head and he had succeeded for the most part. One question kept coming back to him: What if he had to really order Ash to die? He kept trying to refuse to think about it,…

Mission: Another Tin Man
Posted on Mon Nov 9th, 2026 @ 3:00pm by Captain Shran dh'Klar & Commander Callie Raven-Grayson
It was late. Gamma shift was on bridge duty, and it was a special duty shift as the newly minted Commander, the ship's counselor Callie, was sitting in the big chair for the first time. The Washington was cruising along at warp 5 and all had been going well. A minor issue with the phaser coils locking up had taken Lt Phoenix from his station on the bridge to check and repair the issue. Ensign Kuzma was at Ops and was the most senior of the bridge crew at the moment, other than Callie.

Shon yawned and sat back on her seat Sage now two years old asleep in her arms. She stretched her legs out, it had been a long journey jumping from place to place making sure her and Sage's luggage had followed them. She smiled feeling the change in her implants for the better as further surgeries had augmented her strength and sight. It was a year ago though and she remembered the anxiety she had suffered prior to that. However her teaching position and lectures on advances of virology and looking after a now waddling child had taken up all…

James walked through the corridors of the Washington. He'd just come off duty. As he walked, he reflected on the day's events. He had what he considered a weird day, however the weird days were becoming more and more common that they were beginning to be the norm.
He took the command test and passed. But to do so he had to sacrifice a fictionalized version of Ash. Then, he went to a derelict ship that tried to bring Callie and Viviana under its influence, then he returned and stopped a fellow crew member from taking over the ship while…

It had been a strange last few days aboard the Washington. Most of the senior officers had been down to the planet Stoker and returned reporting things that were supernatural in nature. Many had returned bloody, and it was reported that a few of the captain's away team did not return. Others had visited a derelict and dealt with eerie goings on of their own. Considering all that had happened, it made sense that the captain had been quiet since his return from the planet. The Washington had broken orbit of the planet only a few hours ago and was…

Personal Log, Lieutenant Kate Kono
I keep thinking that if I arrange the facts in the right order, they will become something I recognize.
We went to this terrible planet expecting a survey, a conversation with the locals, perhaps a few odd readings to explain the storms. Instead we found a town that emptied before nightfall, a forest full of stakes, and things from old Earth stories moving under the moon. Wendigo. Lycans. Vampires. Dracula. The words still feel absurd in a Starfleet report. They sound like categories in a library, not things that can chase you through the mud…

Captain's Log,
Callie successfully completed the Bridge Officer Assessment for Command, as did Lt Phoenix. I anticipated Callie completing the assessment and pushed through her promotion. As of today, she is now a Commander. I am allowing her to ease into command, placing her on the Gamma shift rotation.
As for Lt Phoenix, he is now the Assistant Chief of Security. He has thus far performed his duties admirably.
End log.

"Begin recording.
I have yet to receive any report from the Sinkahue about our discourse on Dragons or other possible infringements, this could be taken one of two ways. 1) I will have to depart this vessel and cease my career in Starfleet. 2) The Sinkahue still has not decided the best course of action towards me on our differences.
I have not spoken of this to the sister of my mother as she is indebted to the Sinkahue, and it would be wrong to make her choose sides. I may attempt to speak to Commander Grayson and request from…

"Begin recording.
My time on this vessel maybe soon come to an end, as both myself and the Sinkahue are now at odds with one another. A simple matter on which neither of us are prepared to alter our stance, at one time I would have never challenged in this fashion but now I feel I must. I will not go into detail in this log as my thoughts are troubled, and things must take their course.
But I am resolved to see this concern of mine through to the end, what ever that end has to offer. But my…

So I tried to run the numbers on my kill count the other day… Full analytical breakdown, the whole thing, and the universe just laughed at me.
Inconclusive.
Starfleet wants me in counseling, which, respectfully, no. I know exactly why the body count is what it is and I stand by the math. Mostly I just feel annoyed? Like, cosmically annoyed. I'm genuinely a pretty upbeat person. This is not my default setting.
