Kae, here's your long distance dedication. lol
Here's one challenge met. Anyone else care to try? (Thanks, Kae, for giving me something to do today.)
Description: Kathryn has brought the boom box to a senior staff meeting.
Rating: PG

Captain Janeway walked into the meeting room, the boom box in one hand and her coffee in the other. She was pleased to note that her entire senior staff, with the exception of Seven of Nine, who was on the bridge under orders, had managed to assemble prior to her arrival. She set the boom box in front of Tom Paris and proceeded to her normal position. Tom hit the power button as Janeway was opening her mouth to begin the meeting.
"There's a thousand words that I could say."
"The first order of business is that. thing," she informed them with distaste, then put on a slight smile, "I think it's possessed."
"'Cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind."
"I rest my case. Commander Chakotay, what do you think about it?"
Tom had discovered the seek button.
"I think I'm in love."
Captain Janeway turned to look at him, and prepared to ask a different question, just to defy the radio. Time to bring some order to this meeting. She opened her mouth, and
"Every time I try to rise above, I'm swept away by love."
"I knew I loved you before I met you."
"I'll never break your heart. I'll never make you cry. I'd rather die than live without you."
Kathryn blushed crimson, then yelled, "Enough! Mr. Paris, please turn that thing off!" She forced calm. "Commander Chakotay, I am very sorry about this."
"My body too bootylicious for you, babe."
As she blushed even redder, he prepared to apologize. He wasn't sure for what, but someone needed to bring order back.
"My hands are small I know."
In a second, both B'Elanna and the Captain were in hysterics, Janeway still very flushed. The men just sat there looking confused. Apparently, male teenagers don't spread the rumors about the significance of their hand size.
"Mr. Paris! That is enough! Turn that thing off this instant!" Captain Janeway insisted, after calming enough to give orders with a straight face, and put some acid in her tone.
"My suggestion is to keep your distance 'cause right now I'm dangerous."
Janeway was fully prepared to flush Paris out the nearest airlock, but before she had the chance, a trio of unfamiliar alien life forms stormed into the room.
"Things are going great, then to my surprise, some people walked in I didn't recognize. I said, 'Fellas, yo, you gotta get out.'"
"We demand that you and your crew do whatever we say, or." the alien paused.
"I went to Neiman Marcus on a shopping spree."
The alien glowered at the radio. "Or we will obliterate Voyager."
Captain Janeway decided to play along.
"I'm a slave for you."
"Without a sense of confidence I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take."
Janeway tried to think of a plan.
"So baby's gonna take a dive and push the shift into overdrive."
"Of course!" she whispered excitedly. She tapped out a message on her combadge in an an ancient language called Morse code. In five seconds, Seven of Nine processed the code and send a reply. Janeway counted down in her head, "Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven. Six. Five. Four. Three. Two. One."
She leaped at the aliens in a flying tackle, just as Voyager jumped to warp. Her tackle, combined with the unsteadiess of the ship going to warp, allowed her to bring all three to the floor with one try.
"Geez, Captain," said Echeb, pulling off his mask. "It was only a joke."
