Lieutenant JG Ollie Bergmen - Don’t smuggle—unless it’s laughs

[CPT Arianus]

(( Quarters 1418 - Deck 3 - USS Artemis-A ))

Bergmen: Good, that’s all for this PADD. ::takes the next one:: Any cargo planned? During the travel to your destination or during the return?

Tactical Lieutenant was at that time deep in her drawers, gathering clothing for her trip. An extensive amount of, but JG Bergmen wasn’t one to judge.

Storm: Shoes…Oh, and a jacket.

Bergmen: Ma’am? Is there anything you wanna to report as restricted cargo during your travel to or from Betazed?

Heels into the bag. Tennis shoes on her feet. Pushing items in the closet from one side to another, searching for something. Ollie watched the lieutenant do anything other than listen to his questions and queries.

Storm: ::under her breath:: -Expletive redacted - Where the hell is it?

Ollie frowned one of his eyebrows looking at the Betazoid Lieutenant. Tilted his head to the side. Cleared his throat, slowly, noisily, to bring the lieutenant back to reality and conduct an inquiry.

Bergmen: Lieutenant Storm, this will go much faster if you could at least pay some attention.

Storm: Sorry, I was talking to myself.  No.  I don’t plan to haul any cargo either way.

As Alex sighed and closed her eyes, she noticed something dark on the ground. Bending down, she picked it up and carefully folded it before placing it in her duffel bag.

Storm:  I can bring back some Betazoid chocolate, though, right?  A few bars aren’t considered cargo, are they?

Lieutenant, with that question, disappeared into the bathroom, yet not from earshot. Bergmen sighed, seeing that the hope that someone from TACSEC would know the import bans and restrictions was quite forlorn, and took another PADD, found the list in the ship database.

Bergmen: Chocolate is permitted without any restriction, Lieutenant, but only in volume for personal consumption. But if you would bring some liquors and or spirits, without reporting, you have the right to bring one liter of any volume over 15 ABV, or two liters of liquors and spirits under 15 ABV - and under that falls the synthehol liquors and spirits too, ok? (beat) Or any combination of those two.

Storm: Response

Bergmen: What is not permitted without previous permission are organic products - like cheeses - without certification, medicines, animals, cultural heritage items et cetra. I will upload that list to your shuttle databank to be sure, ok?

Storm: Response

Ollie nodded, made some remarks into PADD, and added that PADD to the stack on the table.

Bergmen: Looks like we have everything done, just waiting for you to fill with the OPS Center under your officer’s authorization. Anything more you would like to know, or wanna to ask?

Storm: Response
