((The I’vish Gallery, Shi’Kahr District, Starbase 118))
As Gogi approached the stage, Ross positioned himself leaning against one of the walls - he had grabbed another drink and watched the spectacle with a pensive smile on his face. Shore Leave had brought quite a few changes upon their crew, but if all of their Ensigns turned out as delightful as Lyra Voss, they would fill in perfectly for Sasch, Tito and Korras.
Fairhug: Welcome, everyone, to the I'vish Gallery and to Ops’ latest awards ceremony. I'm sure you'll all agree that this is a very appropriate venue and if you haven't spent much time in the Shi'Kahr District before, I'm sure this evening will make a lasting impression. ::Pause:: First of all, I want to say thank you, once again, to you all.
Ross glanced around the room and caught Sol standing all the way at the back - watching over the event as if she was expecting a Romulan break-in any second.
Fairhug: Our last mission was a particularly stressful one. There were times when I thought, as I'm sure some of you must have, that we might not make it back to the base at all. But as always, this crew never gives up and *always* finds a way.
Fairhug: So, cheers! To you all.
Marsh: Cheers!
Foster: A toast, to all of you!
Willow: Cheers to life! ::Which could have easily been lost::
Wethern: Slainte

Ross raised his glass in unison with his friends. Even though he was standing on his own, he felt a deep connection with all of them. You weren't truly alone ever on this base.

Fairhug: ::With a distant gaze:: As you all know, we have lost some of our colleagues recently. Fortunately, only to other postings, but their absence is still felt, of course. ::pausing:: Lieutenants Tito and Kreshkova are participating in the launch of the USS Thor and Lieutenant Korras has offered his services to USS Khitomer in their struggle against a new and powerful enemy. ::raising his glass again:: We wish them all well in their new roles and hope to serve with them again one day.
Foster: The Thor has been the first major launch after Frontier Day, to much fanfare. Congratulations to all of them!
Wethern: Safe travels.

Fairhug: Now, while some fine officers have departed, others have arrived. It is always a pleasure to be able to introduce new crew at a ceremony such as this, so please, give a warm welcome to ::holding out a hand indicate the Andorian:: Ensign Mi'shune sh'Sonora, our new Helm Officer.
Ross hadn't spoken to the Andorian yet, but it was good to know they had someone following up in Sasch's steps. She had been a brilliant pilot and he meant to see a similar certain spark in Mi'shune's eyes.
Foster: Welcome onboard!
Willow: Glad to have you! Welcome!
Wethern: Welcome.
McLaren: Welcome!

Fairhug: Also, Ensign Lyra Voss, a new addition to the Science department.
That made him turn his head with a grin - Lyra had been weary of this moment and wasn't sitting far from him, which allowed him to raise his glass into her direction followed by a nod.
Marsh: Welcome Lyra!
Foster: I’m excited to have you with us!
Willow: Ad Astra! May the stars welcome you! ::Not the correct translation yet fitting of a science officer::
Wethern: Welcome.
McLaren: Welcome to 118!
Ross: We're glad you're here.
Any: Response
Voss: ::finding her voice:: Thanks! I look forward to working with all of you.
Fairhug: ::another slight turn:: Ensign Arlo Zara, who will be joining the Engineering team.
Ross hadn't spoken to Arlo Zara yet, but they needed every engineer they could get. They looked like a friendly addition to the crew.
Foster: Welcome onboard matey! May we ever sail the seas together!
Willow: Keep the Base in one piece for us! Welcome!
Wethern: Welcome!
Ross: Welcome to the crew!
Any: Response
Arlo: Hello, everyone! Very excited to be serving with you all.
Fairhug: And last but not least, Ensign James Taylor. Another much needed Engineer.
Taylor must have been a recent addition to the roster - Ross turned his head in surprise, being unaware of another newbie.
Foster: I’m glad you can join us, ensign! You took quite a trip to get here!
Wethern: Welcome, you arrived just in time.
He definitely had to look up Taylor's story it seemed.

Fairhug: It is my honour to welcome you all to StarBase One-One-Eight as newly minted Ensigns. I hope that your careers will be long and successful and I look forward to getting to know you all as time goes by.
Foster: And remember, we’re here to help you succeed! ::A pause, a moment in thought, then a change of tone:: First, let me propose a toast! To the crew of StarBase 118! We endure, we preserve, and we support each other! And then we get to play hard because we worked hard! To you!
Ross raised his glass and smiled.
Willow: To family!
Wethern: Slainte, safe travels.
