Message from Chef to Captain Archer

Captain -

Please be informed that we could increase food efficiency if the crew did not waste so much. (For example, I have seen SOME crewmembers dumping condiments in their sidedishes, making them look too revolting to eat. Also, I do not think that tossing around small pieces of fruit, such as tomatoes is acceptable conduct for a Star Fleet crew.) The crew would all benefit if they did not take more than they plan on eating. Thank you.

Ensign Travis Mayweather's personal log

Hmmph. What a misnomer… Personal log? If it was my PERSONAL log, then why would I be talking about the ongoing relational development in the Reed/Sato front. On that subject though, the plot thickens. Guess who was flirting with Hoshi today? Yep, the Brit himself. Usually I would not concern myself with this frivility. But they just look so damn CUTE together.

I know Hoshi better than Malcolm, but Malcolm's OK I guess. I know for a fact though that Hoshi still has the shirt that Malcolm lent her when she showed up in his quarters topless that one time that Archer was sent to the future….

I can always tell when someone is in love.

Speaking of love, I have a date later tonight. So if you'll excuse me.

Ensign Hoshi Sato's personal log.

Today was a pretty good day. Oh, and for the record I am not the least attracted to Malcolm Reed.

Even though he does have that adorable accent. And he can kick anyone's ass on the ship. And he was nice enough to update the translator for me. And he has the cutest blush. And he can bench 375 pounds.

Nope, not attracted at all.

In fact, I am going to return the shirt that he let me borrow – when I showed up at his quarters shirtless when our ship was crawling with the Suliban and our captain was apparently off in the future with Daniels. But that's a different story. Yeah, well, I haven't gotten around to returning the shirt to him, in the year that I've had it so I am going to do so right now. Here I go. This is to prove to certain people, like Travis, that I am not romantically interested in Malcolm at all.

Besides, Malcolm would never fall for me anyway. If I liked him. Hypothetically speaking.

I do not like Ensign Sato. End of discussion.

Commander Charles Tucker's personal log.

You-know-who is coming over later tonight. Yay.

However, I am still worried about Mal. He is obsessing. She's all he seems to think about. And he is having mood swings too. Like a teenager. Today in the gym, he was fairly quiet like usual, but he had too much energy and adrenaline. I still can't believe he benched 375 pounds. But then he was really depressed after we came out of the showers. And every time I mention Hoshi's name he gets all weird. He's also blowing off everything that I say.

I guess it's really none of my business but I am going to go get to the bottom of this right now. I know he's still up.
