Posted on 26 Jul 2026 @ 7:08pm by Captain Sabrina Corbin in Sim Announcement
One year ago, we began this journey with a ship, a newly reactivated fleet, and a collection of ideas about the stories we wanted to tell together.
Since then, the USS Arawyn and Epsilon Fleet have grown into something far larger than any single mission or character. We have explored new worlds, negotiated fragile accords, survived temporal displacement, confronted buried histories, celebrated beneath the lights of the Starfall Carnival, and occasionally created problems that Starfleet regulations were never designed to address.
More importantly, we have built a shared universe filled with people who now feel as though they have always…

Time After Time is winding down. I will keep this mission open until next Saturday, August 1. If you have any Time After Time posts, please put them in this mission.
If you have anything else, lets put these posts in 'The Doldrums'. This is more of an intermission 'plot' and there may be things introduced to react to, its a pretty open sand box for character development, doing your own subplots. If your subplot actions affect others, please check with the command team first, but we're pretty open :)

Greetings, Arawyn Crew!
If we haven’t heard from you in a while, I hope this finds you well. Please let us know your status — we are always happy to help you re-engage in the sim.
As we wrap up our plot for The Displaced, if you are closing out logs connected to that plot, please be sure to post them there. The plot will remain open for a short while as we finish things up. I will be logging soon about the USS Arawyn heading to a planet to enjoy some shore leave.
These in-between periods are an excellent…

Podcast-Style Summaries Now on YouTube
Not an official podcast, not something heavily produced, but some of you already know from Discord that I’ve been experimenting with an AI-generated, podcast-style summary of our sim logs. I have no plans to do formal sim reports or weekly summaries, but I find this format fascinating. It’s quick for me to produce and may help anyone who’s struggling to keep up with the flow of posts.
There are no posting minimums here, and if anyone ever needs a hand getting re-engaged, please let me know. My plan is to share these every other week,…

Posted on 07 Nov 2026 @ 8:00pm by Captain Sabrina Corbin & Senior Chief Petty Officer Elias Merrick
Sabrina Corbin had been reviewing the personnel file on her desk for nearly ten minutes when the door to her ready room announced a visitor.
"Come in."
Elias Merrick entered carrying a PADD and placed it on the corner of her desk. "The last of the transfer documentation, Captain. Personnel seems satisfied that I'm actually leaving this time."
"How reassuring of them." She glanced at the PADD, then returned her attention to the file on her monitor. "Speaking of Personnel, we have a very strong applicant for your position."
"Already?"
"Disappointed?"
"Surprised, perhaps. I thought you might enjoy a few…

Kate Cherbourg sat before her monitor, trepidation in her fingertips. What was inside that unopened correspondence might change her life significantly. Or it might bring equally significant disappointment.
Her best friend Amanda Bristow had brought the Notice of Opportunity to her attention the morning after they had shared dinner and Kate had admitted she was thinking about the possibilities of working beyond the confines of Starbase 369. She hadn’t told anyone except Amanda and then it was Amanda who happened to see the posting the very next morning.

Posted on 07 Nov 2026 @ 7:59pm by Captain Sabrina Corbin
Sabrina Corbin finished reviewing the documentation Commander Harlan had forwarded regarding the rather unexpected modifications to Deck Nine. She had to concede that the proposal had merit. The crew had endured considerable stress on their recent assignments, and a recreational facility that could accommodate more personnel than the holodecks could certainly be beneficial.
That didn't mean she approved of how the project had come about. Someone at Fleet Command had apparently decided that authorizing the removal of several sections of her ship without consulting its Captain was perfectly reasonable.
And regardless of what the designers insisted upon calling it, they…

/// Veterinary Office :: Science Department ///
Spencer was bored. It had been ages since he had seen Riah. The other staff had taken care of his needs, but so far he hadn't seen her.
He lifted his head as she walked in. He could feel the stress emanating from her. There had been attack. People had died. As she sat down, Spencer moved out of the door of the open cage and planted his head upon her sleeve, fuzzy pink nose sniffing.
Riah stroked his-sew head between his ears. He seemed to like that and usually closed his eyes…

Elias Merrick spent the afternoon attending to the administrative business that accompanied the Arawyn's return to Starbase 369, though his attention wandered more than once. His meeting with Jonathan the previous day had gone better than he'd dared hope. They'd argued over financial projections, laughed about the company's more ambitious plans, and eventually arrived at something resembling a workable agreement. For the first time in twenty-eight years, Elias could picture a future outside Starfleet, and he was genuinely excited.
Still, one conversation he wasn't looking forward to loomed. Sabrina Corbin had become considerably more important to him than he'd ever…

Lieutenant Jorik's Personal Log, Stardate 242501.27.
I have returned to my quarters aboard the USS Arawyn following an unscheduled encounter planetside. It is approximately one hour since Lieutenant Commander Harlan accepted the provisions I provided and beamed back to the ship. The medical department remains in a state of operational limbo; the Chief Medical Officer and the majority of staff are currently on shore leave, leaving me to monitor routine systems from standby. I have utilized this interval for meditation, though the session was... less productive than anticipated. My thoughts continue to cycle through recent events, requiring active realignment.

Posted on 20 Jan 2026 @ 9:51pm by Lieutenant Commander Elias Harlan
Elias was up early the next morning—freshly showered, uniform crisp, two cups of coffee already down before he left his quarters. The run-in with Jorik still lingered like a low-grade plasma leak, but he pushed it aside. Today wasn’t about old wounds. Today was about the test.
His stride had purpose as he walked the corridors. Junior officers and crew subconsciously parted for him—serious Lieutenant Commander, unknown face, quiet authority that didn’t need words. A couple of ensigns nodded as they stepped off the turbolift he entered; he turned, faced forward, and said simply, “Main Engineering.”
The Excelsior’s engine room…

Posted on 20 Jan 2026 @ 9:50pm by Lieutenant Commander Elias Harlan
Elias sat at the small desk in his guest quarters, nursing his second cup of coffee and staring at the same PADD screen he’d been reading for the last hour without really seeing it. The run-in with Jorik two days ago hadn’t gone as badly as it could have—nobody had ended up in sickbay, nobody had been court-martialed—but it had been tense, raw, and loaded with emotions he had no interest in unpacking right now.
So he’d taken to hiding in his quarters. It was the one place on the Intrepid where Jorik wasn’t likely to appear unless he deliberately…

USS Interpid
En-Route to Lathira IV
Two days had passed since the personnel transfer, and the Intrepid’s corridors felt narrower than usual.
Elias had turned avoidance into an art form. He’d mapped out the ship’s quieter arteries like a man charting escape routes: the lower-deck Jefferies tubes where the lighting was dim and the hum of secondary power systems drowned out footsteps, the auxiliary sensor labs that rarely saw senior staff, the small observation alcove on Deck 12 with a viewport nobody ever used because it faced the warp nacelles instead of stars. He knew every shift change, every patrol…

USS Intrepid
En-Route Lathira IV
Elias Harlan was halfway through his first week aboard the Intrepid, and so far he’d managed to stay mostly out of everyone’s hair.
He kept to guest quarters, the occasional mess-hall run for coffee that was at least drinkable, and the quiet corners of the ship where no one expected him to make small talk. Rebecca had delivered the weekly senior officers’ dinner invite in person, her expression somewhere between sisterly insistence and XO command. Captain Harrington had apparently taken a personal interest—why, Elias couldn’t begin to guess. He’d accepted, figuring refusal would only draw…
