Commander Tom Lasky was talking with Lieutenant JG Elizabeth Yamaguchi in quiet tones when the turbolift door opened and out walked a Klingon, wearing the uniform of a Starfleet diplomat with a rather large bottle in his hand as he was singing something in Klingon at the top of his lungs.

He walked onto the bridge. "Join me. Friends! A TOAST TO THE ... FEDERATION!"

Elizabeth was by now heavily pregnant and it was clear that she was expecting but she got up before moving over to the replicator. "Okay... he wants to party... Fine by me!"

Moni came over as she and Yamaguchi began distributing the none alcoholic drinks to everyone. "I am Vrenn... Your new diplomatic officer... I will endeavor to see to it that all people understand me in no uncertain terms... but today we celebrate my meeting you all for tomorrow we all may die....!" he yelled loudly before taking a long pull from his bottle.

Rykar looked up from her console with a look on her face. Her keen sense of smell could detect that there was no alcohol, but she said to Moni anyway, "How long do you think this one will last."

Elizabeth smiled as she lifted her drink before she began singing in passable Klingon.

Lasky raised an eyebrow as Vrenn came over as he began singing with her. "You sing well.." he complimented Elizabeth.

Nasao chuckled. "However long he lasts... It won't be dull..."

Luhanna Wintersnow decided to go for it. "Ten bars he lasts a week."

"You're on. Fifteen." Lasky responded.

"Twenty Five says he outlasts everyone else in the position," Elizabeth responded.

Lasky nodded. "You're still on. I'll see your twenty-five and raise you ten more."

Teval walked out of the ready room, groggy from a nap, saying, "OK, who is shouting out here."

Vrenn regarded Teval. "I am Vrenn!" he almost yelled. "Commander Rank... Romulan Tal'Shiar!" he lifted his bottle. "I have come to hear you confuss your missed deeds.... before I extrite you to... Romuss..."

Elizabeth chuckled softly as she gently sat down, she hid a snicker under her hand, she knew where this was heading.

Teval looked over at Lasky, looked back at Vrenn, then decided to be the buzzkill. "Your not fooling anyone here. There is no alcohol in that bottle, its just water, and I know for a fact you are not tal shiar in any way shape or form, nor do I care. I don't know what act you are really trying to pull, but honestly, its kinda lame."

Vrenn threw back his head as he let out a loud laugh. Then he lifted his bottle and finished off the bottle. "Not bad." he responded. "I am your new Diplomatic officer..."

Teval raised an eyebrow. "Yeah, noticed, your uniform gave it away, so tell me, are you a shameless pervert or a windowlicking moron. Because that is what we got for our last diplomatic officers."

Vrenn raised an eyebrow. "I am neither." he responded. "I am happily married and I have come to see to it that this ships diplomatic corps runs like a well oiled machine... even if I must turf out the entire department and work from scratch... if that's what it takes.."

Lasky raised an eyebrow as he shared look with Elizabeth. "What was that bet again?"

"Too rich for you dear..." as she gave him an impish look. "and no... you cannot withdraw from the betting pool."

"Bollocks!" Lasky muttered.

Vrenn meanwhile heard the exchange. "You... are all betting on me?"

"Yes.." Elizabeth answered bluntly. "I bet that you'll outlast all of the others... who have all failed... we shall see if you can outlast them... or even do anything decent.."

"Then I shall endeavor to serve as well as I can.." as he turned his attention back to Teval. "I am not perverted... and I am not... a windowlicker...if thats actually an insult.."

Teval produced a PADD and gave it to Vrenn," well here is your department. Not much, currently, you have three aides, one extremely fat and ugly, and well, your predecessors, they left a mess. One died to the breen, the other died from tribble allergies."

"Lovely." Vrenn responded. "At the first sign of treachery, I will kill them.... but... I promise to return the bodies intact."

"I hope that was a joke." Lasky commented.

Vrenn regarded him without breaking a smile. "We shall see."

Nuyari poked her head out the ready room door, curious as to what was going on, but Teval went back into the ready room, scooping up Nuyari in the process. Takov, was lying on his stomach on one of the couches, on his computer, while Hakaya was curled up on the other couch, with Kiyuo, Savo, and Yavi cuddled up with her.

"Whats going on," Hakaya asked, groggy.

Teval sat down on the couch, next to Hakaya, replying," Oh, just the new diplomatic officer. We got a Klingon this time around."

Hakaya didn't react to the news, simply saying. "Lovely."

Vrenn turned and walked off of the bridge. Elizabeth Yamaguchi watched him go in silence as her lovely brown eyes took in the view. "So..?"

"The betting pool is on... people all over the ship are betting."

"Good." she smiled.
