Mission: Mission 102: Sic Transit Tienn
Location: Various Locations - Utgarde IV
Timeline: 1200Hrs - July 25th, 2393

The various members of clan Tienn were all seated around the large kitchen table, all of them were sharing a moment together while the family was taking a break from the relocating of their home. Tienn Jaina smiled as she regarded her kin. "I never thought I'd ever be seated at this time and all of us are here. like this."

Tienn Ezas smiled. "What can we say ma. It's good to be here." she was wearing a medium blue shirt and a pair of black pants as she sipped her glass of water when the door opened and in walked two more Bajoran females followed by a Vulcan male, one of the Bajoran females looked really tired and the second looked refreshed and happy. Kerris smiled as she greeted her mother while Iteela greeted her siblings. "Hey guys, are we late?"

The Vulcan male held a crate in his hands. "Hello everyone, I was unsure what everyone wanted so I packed sandwiches," he commented before Tienn Ezas indicated the center of the table, he placed the crate there as Nerra smiled with a wide smile on her lips. "Mmmm... Suvek, how thoughtful of you," she commented.

Corat nodded. "Its been a long time Suvek, hows life?"

"Life is good, my young friend." the Vulcan answered with a gentle smile as Tienn Kerris lifted two chairs, she was wearing a red shirt with a pair of khaki cargo pants, which indicated she was prepared to work.

"Have a seat and share a glass of water with us," Ezas commented. "Its been awhile you two, its great to see you both."

Iteela sighed softly as she sat down at the table, she was wearing a green shirt and a pair of shorts, she also looked exhausted. Jaina regarded her. "Why don't you go and get some rest, you look exhausted."

"I'm used to working the night shift, plus my relationship ending has not helped matters." Iteela sighed softly as she poured herself a glass of water. "Mmm." she then took a sip of the water while she found the coolness refreshing.

"You ended things with Nebris then.?" Nerra inquired in a gentle tone of voice. "I think its because I make things look easy with my own husband and my nine children." Nerra sighed softly "I'm sorry Iteela." she commented softly.

"Don't be. It was my fault." Iteela answered quietly. "I failed to see that he had a sex change forced upon him due to a transporter accident and I forgot that he was happy as a woman. Nebris used to be called Lasarra and she had to endure a lot of changes all at once." she was clearly in no shape whatsoever for an argument.

Kerris and Ezas shared a look. "Iteela, why don't you relax and go get some sleep, don't worry about things, we're here for you."

"I have fucked it up from end to end, I never intended to become pregnant with the twins but I failed him, I failed myself and I failed the twins," Iteela admitted.

Ezas shook her head. "No. Iteela, you failed nobody. You just didn't anticipate his various needs, that's all. Maybe you can repair your relationship with him over time." the tall Bajoran female commented quietly.

"I don't know if he'll even give me the time of day." Iteela paused. "But I can try," she added. "Rachael Yamaguchi-Cullen is presently looking after the twins."

"Did you turn them over to her permanently.?" Jaina inquired in a gentle tone of voice.

"Nebris did. He didn't even fight with her on the subject, I'm willing to wait to let Rachael sort things out for herself. I know she will make an excellent parent for the twins... But I will want to spend time with them, I am their mother and she will understand this." she paused. "That's assuming Rachael also gives me the time of day, the last time we talked, it went extremely poorly."

"Then show her that you are interested in raising the children." Suvek reminded everyone that he was present as he chipped in his two cents. "She is probably making an assumption that you are not interested and will plan accordingly." the Vulcan explained himself. "I apologize if I have offended anyone," he commented quickly.

The various Tienn's did not seem to matter on the subject. "I'll do that Suvek. I've been really busy recently." Iteela explained. "Nebris didn't like that, I was never able to make time for him but I could have tried harder."

Ezas took a sip of the water in the glass. "That would explain why Rachael is reluctant to give them back to you, she could think the worst about you." she paused. "I have heard of her from Neban, he mentioned that she was parted from her own children and husband, who were off on their assignment on one of the battleships."

"The Heart of the Tiger," Iteela explained softly. "She's suffering from empty nest syndrome which means the worst case scenario, she will fight me for the twins." the exhausted Bajoran explained.

"You have family who can help you with the situation," Jaina commented. "I have Almar here and the kids, they have the space to spare and this place is easily twice the size of the last homestead we had on the Tuanko colony." the older female explained evenly. "I've heard of Ms. Yamaguchi-Cullen from others," she added as Keris nodded. "I'm about to spend a tour working with her mother as her Executive Officer."

"You're gonna love working with Torilla." Ezas suddenly grinned, she clearly had a special place in her heart for the woman in question and it showed. "If Neban could, he'd happily bed her. I might not be overly impressed but I know she'd enjoy it."

"Who... Rachael or Torilla?" Nerra inquired with a good-natured smile.

"Both," Ezas answered with a rather evil grin on her lips.

"Well don't forget that Tom Lasky actually did sleep with two of them, Torilla and Elizabeth."

"Oh yes, I recall hearing about that," Jaina commented. "Iteela told me."

Iteela nodded. "What, it was a little much, even for Lasky. Elizabeth was because of the first pineapple event and the other was Torilla coming onto him as a result of stress."

"Wasn't her psionic bond with Jake, severed at that point." Ezas inquired. "I was never a hundred percent sure of the details."

"Yes. Thanks in part to Peeves." Iteela answered evenly. "Torilla was the effect while Nalla was the cause of the first pineapple event while Plataea was the effect and Nalla was the cause of the second pineapple event,"

"Pineapple?" Jaina shook her head as she asked. "I don't get the reference."

"Pineapple, it's better than saying polywater," Iteela explained. "Otherwise Nalla would have been removed from Starfleet with extreme prejudice."
she sighed softly as she sipped her drink. "The medical staff got a little too protective of Nalla. Toshnarr almost ate someone because of it and Galiaan Fordring could easily step on you and break things." as a gentle smile appeared on Iteela's face as a result of this.

Ezas giggled. "Sounds like Galiaan. Hows she doing these days?"

"She's still being herself, she's assigned to the Starbase and wears the rank of Lt Commander. I think she should have a higher rank. She did a good job with Roanoke's collection of loons and nutballs." Iteela explained. "She made sickbay work effortlessly, Nalla was in her lab doing her thing and we were off doing ours. If we needed anything, we went to Fordring about it."
