Fortunately for the humorless vulcans frustration is also not in their repitore..
Interesting interaction between two very different crew members. Good technobabble as well. So I sense a shuttle trip in the offing?
Thanks!! rbs
Author's Response: Yeah, there is a reason this part is titled the Getaway. It's not quite as impressive as the technobabble in Hunter, but you know, I give it a good try.

Ok, so obviously, there's more going on here than we know at present. I'm already suspicious about the nature of the nebula and what secrets it may hold. There's a few details that are suspectible to interpretation or paranoid delusions. For example, what other manned craft attempted to enter the nebula? what is the nature of those strings of light and energy? etc.
Again, the set up is great here. Pieces are being moved about and are we about to see Deen and Xylion get tossed aside in some sort of accident or murderous attempt? We're waiting for the knife to fall presently so paranoid setting is in full mode.

Oh, Deen. I like her. She's fun. Definitely wants to be a science officer and not an ops one, but she's mostly come to terms with it. Mostly. There's some regret in her voice but her career should be long enough to where she can be named head science officer somewhere else in the future. She's just got to keep her head up.
Like the interplay here between these two and the continuing commentary on how Starfleet has been reduced to a military body in wartime, something that I feel wasn't addressed nearly enough in DS9 where everyone was content to shoot things up. Repeatedly.
Looking forward to more.
Author's Response: Glad this is coming across. These guys aren't soldiers and that's a theme I like to revisit. Yes, they go out and fight the battles but only because they do not have a choice. Because their freedoms and their lives depend on it. And you can bet that the likes of Deen and Xylion will jump on a chance to do the thing they signed-up to Stafleet to do in the first place.
