((POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS - DECK 5, USS ARTEMIS-A))

Damaged relay isolated, check.  Remove self-sealing stem bolts, one, two, three, four.  Slide damaged relay unit halfway out.  Access EPS couplings, and disconnect.  Render couplings secure.  Remove the damaged relay unit.

Assess condition of damaged relay unit.  Option One, on-site repairable for immediate use.  Option Two, Engineering Lab repairable for later use or spare.  Option Three, strip for parts.  Option Four, recycle parts.  Mark up damaged relay unit accordingly.

Option Three, strip for parts.

Remove stabilizer bolts from the new relay unit, one, two, three four.  Slide the new relay unit in halfway.  Attach and secure EPS couplings.  Slide the new relay unit in fully.  Secure with self-sealing stem bolts, one, two, three, four.

Power up new relay.  Check power transfer stability and efficiency.


And so it went on, for forty hours straight.  Engineering and Ops teams working through shifts to restore the EPS network.
       

((ROOM 05-0799 – DECK 5, USS ARTEMIS-A))

Swoosh!  The door to room 0779 slid open and the Andorian Engineer trudged inside.  Before the door had slid shut, the one-meter ninety-centimeter tall Andorian toppled down on the deck and landed, flat out and face down.

The Andorian Engineer’s antennae twitched.  He had been too tired upon arriving to notice Ensign Cole, now he sensed she was in the room.

Tho’Bi: ::face down:: Oh, hey.  ::beat:: Okay if I sleep here?
 
Cole: Computer, pause recording and save. ::setting everything down::

Computer: Recording paused and saved.

Cole: You ok?!

Natasha got up and offered a hand.  In truth the Andorian had little interest in being vertical, but he accepted it and staggered to his feet.  His skin was pale.  He needed to eat food with the HZB-41 protein dye in it.  Without regular intakes, Andorians began to lose the blue hue of their skin. 

Cole: Sounds like you need this Shore Leave really badly. ::helping to his feet::

Tho’Bi: ::woozy:: I need to eat blue food

The Andorian shuffled to the replicator. 

Tho’Bi: ::to the replicator:: Raw Andorian Tuber Root, sliced with Fat Grass and two slices of Hari.
A shimmering blue light filled the overwise flat, empty shelf of the replicator.  The shimmering blue diffused and disappeared to reveal a plate with two pieces of something similar to bread, a mess of thick green grass edged with blue, and vaguely circular slices of a pale blue vegetable.  The Andorian slammed everything together between the two pieces of Hari, and took a chunky bite out of the clumsy, bodged sandwich. 

Cole: Maybe take a shower and a nap before doing anything too exciting though.

The young Andorian nodded in agreement.   Swallowing a mouthful of food, he turned in the direction of his bathroom and began to amble out of the room. 

Tho’Bi:  I’m going to take my shower into the sandwich.

Cole: Response?

Without warning the Andorian stopped in his tracks and turned back into the room, his dark blue eyes scanned the storage units and floor.

Tho’Bi: Woah.  Everything’s tidy.

Cole: Response?

With that the Andorian left with his sandwich.  No sooner had the low hum and fizz of the sonic shower started, the Andorian returned with his sandwich and without his clothes.

Tho’Bi: ::points at replicator:: Do you want a sandwich?   

Cole: Response


TAG/TBC


((OOC: The Power Relay stuff is all head-canon
Andorian need to intake HZB-41 is from SB118Wiki
Andorian food types mentioned are described on the SB118Wiki 
I’m pretty sure Andorians have a very relaxed attitude to nudity, but can’t find where I read it.))
