"Believe me, space really messes with you. Signing up to Starfleet was a mistake. Nothing but a bunch of empty space and occasional discoveries, and the only thing to show for it? Things either randomly trying to kill you, deliberately or not," McCoy said to Grif with a long sigh, running a hand through his hair. Between the sweat running down his brow and his general exasperated expression, one he wore like he always had it on, one could only wonder what kind of sights he's had to see as a doctor for a voyaging ship.

"Case in point..." He added grumpily, glancing at Starscream briefly, before shaking his head, "But no, the more they eat, the more easily they reproduce asexually. A breadcrumb, and you could potentially end up incidentally creating more Tribbles than there were breadcrumbs to begin with," the doctor explained calmly, before Samus entered the fray from there.

"Uhh..."

As the bounty hunter offered her own help -- albeit, with unorthodox methods compared to what McCoy was thinking -- with the Tribbles, McCoy briefly bit his lip, before speaking again. "I suppose, if you can control the output of your shots, a shock might be able to at least keep them from reproducing, though I'd advise heavy caution as to not leave any lasting damage. I am a doctor, after all. Or does the Hippocratic Oath not exist in your worlds? Do no harm and all that?" He asked half rhetorically, crossing his arms.

"As for where, in any case, the Cargo Bay will do. That's where they were supposed to be to begin with; we're transporting them to an uninhabited planet where they can live peacefully and not disturb anyone," McCoy continued, working again to pick up some more Tribbles, purring contently like kittens, before the doctor let out a sigh, eyeing Samus and the others again, "They say its purrs can really soothe the human nervous system. What do you guys think? Feeling extra cuddly right now?"

"Trail? What are you even talking about?" Kirk said to Sarge, wondering who he could even be referring to. A personal bout of paranoia? The captain initially thought so, until Emily and Titus seemed to echo the sentiment in some part, alluding to something that happened on the Discovery. Still, he had little time to dwell on it, all things considered. In response to Meceliss, Kirk shook his head.

"Well, the planet in question, Omicron Persei 9, is quite a ways from here. As long as we get these little guys back under control, it shouldn't be too much trouble to put them on the backburner," he said, "We'll have to carry as many as we can to the Cargo Bay."

"Maybe we can make a little trail of crumbs from me snacks for them to follow," Scotty said dryly in a facetious tone.

"Not if we don't want them to multiply until there's too many of them to even fit in the room. Besides, if you are eating at a work station, Mr. Scotty, maybe your supposed crumbs are exactly why they're multiplying."

"It was just a joke, captain," he said, trying to quietly shuffle his box of wafers deeper in his work desk.

"Right. Well, let's get a move o--" Kirk began, stepping forward as he started to talk, until a sharp whimper was heard, like a wounded puppy or cat. The man's eyes widened before he realized that yet another Tribble had been born beneath his feet, having accidentally stepped on it, though at least it still seemed to be alive, "Oh, son of a... Alright, yeah, let's go. Pick up as many as you can," the dignified Captain Kirk said, picking up the other Tribbles.

@Raptor Jesus @York @Yun Lee @Jeremi @Josh @dark @Donder172 @Minerva @CrunchyCHEEZIT @Engineering

"Well, it shouldn't take too long. Maybe a few days of traveling. That doesn't do harm, does it?" Meceliss noted before she started to collect as many of the Tribbles as she could. "Distance shouldn't be a problem."

"You bloody monster! You killed them all! I can't believe you ate them all!" Scotty cried out in horror as Kirby swallowed up all the Tribbles, only to be met with an elbow to the side by Kirk.

"Please calm down, Mister Scott. I'm guessing this... uh, pink alien is able to keep them all alive in its mouth. I think. I hope," Kirk said, looking somewhat uneasily at Kirby, but deciding to trust in it for now. After all, the little thing was friendly to the Tribbles before, right? In any case, as the group gathered what was hopefully all of the Tribbles around, when Blitzcrank would ask where the Cargo Bay was, Kirk turned, briefly gesturing with his head in front of him. A gesture of verbal communication.

"Just follow me. And... Don't lose them. Even if they might become too much for you to handle. Mister Scott, I'll leave you to any necessary repairs on the systems. Alright, everyone else, let's go," the captain said, and with that, began marching forward, leading everyone on.

As the group walked in something of an awkward silence (at least, in Kirk's opinion), he began to speak again after a few moments, wanting to break the ice. "So... What exactly are your worlds like? It's not every day we get visitors from entirely different dimensions. I... uh, I guess it'd be kinda hard to describe when the only frame of reference is your own, but I'm all ears," he asked everyone, gingerly trying to keep hold of every Tribble in his arms, even having to balance one on top of his head, gesturing briefly to Titus and Vader, "You two especially seem like you come from... interesting backgrounds. I'll just say, I think it'd be a bit uncanny if our histories of Earth are drastically different."

"I do have to add to Scotty, that is a bit disturbing..." Meceliss said after witnessing Kirby swallowing the Tribbles. Shudder for a moment before shaking it off from her. "I'm from the same dimension as Vader and I can say that I have never heard of a planet called 'Earth'. If that is your planet of origin. In ours, I believe that is Coruscant. Which I'm from. For me, it's a Galaxy in ruins after fifty-years of war and six years of occupation from a previously unknown empire. My homeworld is any better, Coruscant is still in ruins from the Sacking." Meceliss said towards Kirk. When she talked about Coruscant, it was evident in her voice that this was something she wasn't happy about at all. "And for Coruscant... we have to thank the Sith for that." she said before giving Vader a very brief glare.

After being beamed up, Rin stayed quiet throughout the entire “meeting”, considering she was laughing while shooting down zombies before, that was quite a impressive change of behaviour. She was bored, yes, but she stayed quiet. After Kirk finished, she began heading to the recreation room, before deciding to go the engineering room instead.
——————
Alright. While she did take a while to come down due to walking around aimlessly around the ship, she couldn’t have imagined the room being filled with people trying to grab...fluffy balls...that purred when touched.
“How cute! Very useless though, but it could be a great pet for the busy maybe?...Nevermind, let’s get these buggers out of here!”
After picking two up while being confused on why they were planning to throw all the tri bales over to the cargo bay apparently, Rin shuddered when she felt a newborn Trimble being born, in her hands. Throwing it down immediately, like the others, she began to collect the tribbles. They were cute, but there were just too much. She collect them with haste, and her tribble pile was literally taller then her. She couldn’t help but be throughout all of this instead of being angry like she usually would, must be the purring.

Spoiler: Replies

Inside the game cabinet, upon opening the door to its insides, a few balls of fluff would suddenly pour out of it, while even more remained inside, purring and squeaking slightly inside. Though they weren't exactly mice, one could imagine they were indeed chewing on the wiring inside... or at least, that's what one could assume, as there wasn't a mouth to see, but they were certainly smothering the wiring.

Meanwhile, as for the food synthesizers, something similar would occur, as while Grif would indeed be able to procure some food from it, the machine would suddenly synthesize what appeared to be a glass along with it, even if a request wasn't made for a drink. However, instead of a liquid being inside the glass, there would be... even more fluff balls inside, all audibly purring and immobile.

"Those are called Tribbles, and we're... having some problems with them," an unfamiliar man spoke, mainly in response to Grif and Gumi, having just entered the Recreational Area from behind, "And sorry to spoil your fun," he grumpily added to Kumagawa, before clearing his throat, "Leonard McCoy. I'm the chief medical officer, but damned if Jim doesn't think I'm a caretaker too, expecting me to be on top of these blasted little things," he hastily introduced himself, walking over to Vert and Gumi to pick up some of the living fluff balls. Meanwhile, said Tribbles were not able to even respond to Starscream, only continuing to purr softly.

"They're not in fact for eating. Think of them as our... cargo that needs to be delivered," McCoy added, "Somehow, they've went ahead and gotten loose throughout the Enterprise, and I've had to spend the last several aching minutes looking around for them. Guess it figures they'd gather around some place with food or drinks around..." He grumbled, picking up a few of the Tribbles inside the game cabinets, before making his way toward the bar where he found even more.

"They're not directly harmful, but... Well, as you can see, there's quite a lot of them, so unless you enjoy bathing in fur, you should probably try to gather them all around before they flood this whole room. So unfortunately, ma'am, as lovely as they might be, they'll probably kill you by complete accident at the rate they reproduce at," McCoy said, his latter statement directed to Gumi.

"That all said, I assume you're all the... extra-dimensional beings the captain told me about. Some of you definitely look human, and others..." The doctor trailed off, glancing at Starscream, before clearing his throat, "... are definitely not from this world."

"This is a little problematic," Starscream ponders, "it appears that our only solution is to manually carry them and avoid any organic food items. It would be best to turn the food synthesizers off."

The new leader of the Decepticons, reduced to catching Tribbles. He wasn't the prideful type anyways, plus it seemed some time away from his armada was doing him well.

Starscream transformed into his jet mode and opened his cockpit.

"Dump as many as you can in, everyone," he says, prepared to carry the bulk, "the sooner we clear them out, the better... well, I may not possess the nervous system of a human, but you're right, Doctor, these Tribbles are most tingly for my circuits..."

"Sigh... So much for a tea and video game break... However, seeing as we are only transporting smaller, less harmful creatures, I don't see the need to transform to handle this." Vert exclaimed as she began to collect some of the Tribbles and depositing them inside Starscream's Cockpit as he suggested, making sure not to hurt any of them when grabbing them.

"In a way... These things remind me of Dogoo's back home, except entirely fur instead of slime---" She paused for a moment and then looked towards Leonoid McCoy with a disgusted expression as she thought to get this question out of the way for her own safety alone.

"Leonoid, was it? Please tell me these things do NOT exhibit perverted activities... Having slimes crawling all over your body in Gamindustri is worse enough without having to deal with fury balls doing the same..."

Once the cockpit had been filled, Starscream closes it, transforms back into his robot mode with the Tribbles visible and intact within the translucent panes of his fibre-glass-like stomach area as the little fluffballs could be seen pressing against it.

He picked up a good deal of the other Tribbles with his hands as he turns to McCoy.

'Well Doctor, lead the way to your little cargo bay."

"I'm a doctor, not a mechanic. How should I know?"

With a resigned sigh, hopefully with the Tribbles in tow, he gestured for anyone (mostly Starscream and the others involved) helping to tag along with him. "Just... follow me. I still dunno how the hell all these Tribbles got loose around the Enterprise. I'll have to double check the stability of the Cargo Bay after all this," he murmured, walking along and leading anyone following around.

"You guys are awfully colorful. I guess that's to be expected by people from other dimensions. I guess I'm not to talk -- between the yellow, red, and blue uniforms we got. Never thought I'd meet an advanced machine with capable thought on the level of an organic organism... or that there'd be a world that still has the archaic need to breed soldiers," he commented as he walked, making idle conversation with the group, "Not even in the farthest reaches of the galaxy..."

Upon receiving authorization from McCoy, the beam holding the Tribbles attached to her arm-cannon quickly turned an electrifying shade of orange, and the fluffy beasts ceased ceased to purr. "I've learned not to get attached to animals," Samus answered coldly.

Never thought I'd meet an advanced machine with capable thought on the level of an organic organism... or that there'd be a world that still has the archaic need to breed soldiers. Not even in the farthest reaches of the galaxy...

"We are pioneers of an infinite frontier," Samus chimed in while she followed close behind McCoy en route to the cargo bay, "perhaps an infinitely infinite frontier, with the discovery of universes entirely unlike our own. Take pride in that,"

"If I were to explain to you exactly what I meant, you'd think me insane." Vert responded as such, and simply nodded in agreement to follow them. "Colorful is certainly one way to describe us... However if you saw most of the people in my universe, you'd be shocked to discover how little men we have. Well... How little men we have that aren't perverts."

Titus didn't respond immediately, staring straight at nothing as he stomped along towards the cargo bay with the rest of the group. If Kirk were to notice, the space marines eyes were barren and empty in thought. As if he suddenly saw a thousand battles returning to him at once due to one question.

Eesh. Tough crowd. Gakupo decided to humor Kirk, considering the others in their group came off as...well, standoffish. "All of us come from...diverse backgrounds," he said, struggling to talk and keep hold of the Tribbles in his arms at the same time. "Quite a few people here are soldiers, or bounty hunters...or even pink puffballs, like Kirby here. Myself, I'm an android popstar, as are a few others here. Do you happen to have androids here, as well?" Maybe some small talk would do them good.

"Leonoid, was it? Please tell me these things do NOT exhibit perverted activities... Having slimes crawling all over your body in Gamindustri is worse enough without having to deal with fury balls doing the same..."

"... What."

McCoy could not fathom what Vert was talking about.

“Did... did you just eat those things? He just ate those fucking things, didn’t he?”

「Do you actually think a robot can eat?」

"I'm a doctor, not a mechanic. How should I know?"

With a resigned sigh, hopefully with the Tribbles in tow, he gestured for anyone (mostly Starscream and the others involved) helping to tag along with him. "Just... follow me. I still dunno how the hell all these Tribbles got loose around the Enterprise. I'll have to double check the stability of the Cargo Bay after all this," he murmured, walking along and leading anyone following around.

"You guys are awfully colorful. I guess that's to be expected by people from other dimensions. I guess I'm not to talk -- between the yellow, red, and blue uniforms we got. Never thought I'd meet an advanced machine with capable thought on the level of an organic organism... or that there'd be a world that still has the archaic need to breed soldiers," he commented as he walked, making idle conversation with the group, "Not even in the farthest reaches of the galaxy..."

「Huh? Even I've seen machines that can act like people. Did you guys really manage to make a space ship?」Kumagawa asked, walking along casually with the group.「Could it be you guys just spent too much money on this little space project or whatever, and haven't advanced any other kind of technology? What a shame, what a shame...」

"Yeah, I haven't even seen another android even once!" Gumi happily carried her bundle of Tribbles, echoing Kumagawa's comments. "The space food is cool, though, and so are these games! But I was hoping for more VR, yeah? Maybe sone cool holograms and stuff that'd make this so much cooler! The coolest thing so far was that beaming thing we did. That was awesome! Can you guys beam anywhere you wanna go? I wish I could do that. I also wish I had rocket boots, and I did for a bit, but then Star-Lord took 'em back. Do you guys have rocket boots here? Can I have some?"
