[OOC]
Ok, this is a pertinent question, even though it is OOC. And no, i'm not lurking, i'm checking for purposes of joining.
Just to confirm, although we are using TNG episodes, we are using original series characters, and original series color scheme, right?
[/OOC]
A crewmember walks into the bridge, pulling off his shirt as he does so, covering his eyes. He finishes removing his shirt and stops with his hand halfway to Powerman's backside.
"Uh, hey, you're not the shower knob! And, er, this isn't the shower!"
Everyone on the bridge stares at the crewmember, standing there holding his (no its not red, its blue!) shirt in his hand. They notice that the clothespin came off of his nose when he was removing the shirt, and wonder how long it will take for him to notice the smell.
"Uh, sorry guys, I thought this was . . . wait, whats that pile over there? It's rustling! is someone under there?? An what's that puddle leaking from under it? I wish i had my tricorder, but its still on my workbench . . . oh wait, lets see, those must by those vegetables from Earth, er, what is the species, uh - - oh, right . . . Allium cepa! (Well, so he got lucky, don't worry, he'll fall for it later!) I guess that puddle must be tears from that incredible sten . . . wait, where's my Anti-Sniff device
?"
He puts his hand to his nose, his eyes go wide with shock, then, true to cartoon chemistry, the effect of the smell occurs, and he's out like a light, stiff as a board, and he's made like a ship and keeled over (we mustn't let Powerman have a monopoly!
).
As he lies there, it is noticed that he has pointy ears. People on science crew might recognize him as Lt. Gwai, a science officer, who tends to be very curious, plays with gadgets waaaaay too much, and has overclocked his tricorder (among other projects he is rumored to have).
* now, could someone please cart me off to sickbay? I have an intense case of Super-Allium poisoning from those darn On . . . allium cepae!!*
