Starbase Ronin

When I first read of the starbase opportunity, my immediate thought was no! I like the ship! But then I had to really think about what would and would not change. We'd still be together, still solving problems in all our unique ways. I had to ask myself if Kathleen Black would really be distorted out of character in taking care of a starbase Engineering section, and I realized that no, she was capable of it.

I do have one suggestion, though. DS9 and Babylon 5, both full of fascinating adventures, had something about their placement and composition to spark all of those unusual stories. Babylon 5 was placed at a veritable crossroads of trade routes and pathways, a neutral territory to accommodate diplomatic negotiations. DS9 was placed right next to a wormhole, in orbit around a troubled planet. I'd like us to have some kind of quirk about our station, something to make it more troublesome than the average starbase. I'm sure there will be! Our intrepid captain hasn't led us wrong yet!

So my response, in short, is that I'm sticking around. Whether it be more adventures on the USS Pegasus or a move to a starbase, whatever fascinating and bizarre problems are going to surface, the Chief Engineer will be on the job.

And I do think a starbase could be really fun... but there will be no hard feelings on this side for whichever way it goes!
