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,…

=/\= News from the USS Arawyn =/\=
Exciting times aboard the USS Arawyn! We’ve officially wrapped up our inaugural mission,
Assignment: Arawyn, with an impressive 43 mission posts and 6 personal logs.
That’s a strong start and a testament to the creativity and energy of this crew.
Now it’s time to cast off the docking clamps and chart our course into the stars with our
first full plot: Fractured Accord. A dedicated wiki has been posted to track this mission,
and it will continue to grow as you bring the story alive through your posts.

» Fractured Accord – Coming Soon
Posted on 16 Aug 2025 @ 4:48am by Captain Sabrina Corbin in Sim Announcement
Epsilon Fleet Command has given the USS Arawyn her first true test: a convoy escort into the disputed Tavrik system. On the surface, the assignment is routine — safeguard three science and terraforming vessels on their journey to Tavrik III and provide protection while critical upgrades are made planetside.
But the Tavrik region is anything but routine. Rival factions stake claims, colonists clash over Federation presence, and the balance between diplomacy and disaster hangs by a thread.
Launching soon, Fractured Accord will take the Arawyn and her crew into contested space, where trust is fragile, tensions are high, and the…

/////// Sherman Oaks /////////
Suzanna looked around as Astor began to repair what he had caused. Despite the circumstances, she found the process fascinating. First came the Veylith. Their communication was unlike anything she had experienced before. She had not merely heard their response. She had felt it physically, the sensation passing through her before fading again. Then, one by one, the Veylith disappeared. Each seemed to fold into space itself, returning to wherever it had originated.
Her attention shifted upward. The two warbirds followed. One vanished, then the other, until the sky above Sherman Oaks was empty once more.…

///CEO's quarters///
It took some time for Ryan to get through the physical examination as it seemed like they tested for literally everything. During this Ryan had almost fallen asleep twice. It wasn't the long hours that exhausted him, not quite. But going through that change had taken a lot out of him. Recognizing this, medical decided to postpone the psychological exam until the next day with Doctor Emerson. Giving him a light reminder that he was off-duty until then, Ryan was eventually sent on his way.
As soon as he was back in his quarters Ryan got to work,…

"Commander, when the correction occurs, you and Lieutenant Collingway must remain mentally focused on the Arawyn. You have been affected by the anomaly in ways that I have not. Hold on to who you are and where you belong."
/snip/
"Understood," Ryan's voice was quiet. Almost above a whisper. It was unusual for him.
But truthfully, he was terrified. He knew there was a whole course in the academy about unexpected away team missions. How one could be isolated, left to fend on their own devices. There wasn't so much about literally being unmade and then remade....twice in one…

// Bridge, USS Arawyn //
“Batenburg to Arawyn.”
The channel broke through in fragments at first, the commander’s voice threaded with static and distortion. Lieutenant Jung leaned over his console at Ops, adjusting filters with both hands while the bridge remained held in the uneasy discipline of Red Alert.
Corbin turned from the main viewer. The Klingon D7 and Romulan Bird-of-Prey remained suspended above the upper atmosphere, trapped within Commander McKinney’s graviton net. Beyond them, the Veylith moved in long, pale arcs through space, beautiful and deeply inconvenient.
“Go ahead, Commander,” Corbin said.
Batenburg’s voice returned, clearer now, though still…

Aev said that he could.
Aster believed him.
That was not logical. Aev could not make the Veylith calm. He could not stop the Klingons or the Romulans from remembering their battle. He could not hold Sherman Oaks in place or guide the humans back to the moment before they had looked into the sky and seen ships burning above their roofs.
But he had found Aster by feeling fear instead of chasing power.
That mattered.
Aster closed his eyes.
At first, nothing happened.
The still evening remained exactly as it was, amber light lying across the lawns and rooftops,…

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…
