 "Chief medical officer's log, Stardate who the [REDACTED] cares? So get this: Peanut Hamper – am I saying that right? Stupid name – bugged out in the middle of a big battle. But I'm gonna admit, she was an impressive, talented surgeon. Skilled ensigns are hard to come by, FOR SOME [REDACTED] REASON I INTIMIDATE THEM. You can be a hypospray savant, but if you don't have guts, it's all worthless. You wouldn't believe what dangerous [REDACTED] happens on a starship...Like to beautiful, muscular security officers – OH MY SWEET SHAXS! Why did you have to sacrifice yourself, you succulent dummy? I was going to curl up and take a nap on your back! [REDACTED] this, I need a bowl of cream." 

 Samanthan Rutherford (released , following )
 "Personal log, Stardate 57925.4. People told me the craziest thing happened today! A bunch of Pakleds attacked the ship and Shaxs and I saved the day! But he got blown up and my implant got ripped off... I heard all this second hand because I lost all my memories. But that's okay! I just met this really cool Orion, apparently she's my best friend. I can see why – she's amazing! I still have all my memories from before the Cerritos... mostly. Like, I swear they moved the bathrooms! Okie dokie! I gotta go, I have a date with… uhm. Wait... who do I have a date with? Oh man, I better ask around! Hey Tendi, did you see me ask anyone out today?!" 

 Carol Freeman (release , following ) 
 "Captain's log, supplemental. Repairs are finally complete on the Cerritos. As requested, she's been slightly improved in every way, but not so much that she doesn't still look like the ship I know and love. The Pakleds really did a number on us. If it wasn't for the quick thinking of the crew and a last minute save by the Titan, I don't think I'd be here to make this log. I've got to step up my game. Get noticed by command. On a personal note, I just spent three long hours listening to Captain Riker tell my daughter totally exaggerated stories about when I was her age. He calls me his Cha'DIch, which he knows I hate, Ugh, whatever. Oh, great, he's calling me again. I've got to get back to the bar before my daughter learns too much." 

 Jack Ransom (released , following ) 
 "Personal log, Stardate 57995.8. I just spent many, many hours with the Apergosian high leader, trying to get him to settle on a subspace ID number. The one he ended up choosing? Not my cup of tea. Sure, I was imbued with godlike powers, and I did twist and transform the locals into simulacrums of myself – but even then, you gotta keep your eye on the ball: that's no reason to go with a number that doesn't sing. I guess I did get carried away today. Literally, into space, when I turned into a giant [REDACTED] head. But I learned something important. The Cerritos is my home, not my [REDACTED] chew toy. I'm still adjusting to the captain and Mariner's new work dynamic, but being God Ransom showed me that I'm happy with who I am, and where I am. I also got the see my hairline reflected in the shields and I gotta say I looked amazing. I would have worshipped me too." 

 Beckett Mariner (released , following )
 "Personal log, Stardate 58001.2. Had some trouble today with a collector ship but whatever, the big news is Boims the betrayer is back on the Cerritos! You know the real winner here is Jet. Truly, I mean it can take years for me to let someone get close, truly, I was going to make his life a living hell. Now, Jet's free and I can focus my energy on being pissed that Boimler abandoned me to go the Titan! You know what feels like order is restored, everything just feels right. And yeah, I mean maybe I sort of missed the purple jerk, but that's like one percent of one percent of the anger. Okay! Whatever! Shut Up! Leave me alone. Boimler has a lot of work to do to get back on my good side. The best part is, he KNOWS he messed up. figuring out creative ways to get back at him is going to give me life." 

 D'Vana Tendi (released , following )
 "Personal log, Stardate 58018.8. You're not going to believe this, but Mariner and I realized we'd never gone in a one-on-one mission together! I'm getting to know her as more than just a cool badass. Ok, maybe she still is, but not as mysterious: now I can name the ships she's served on. I've also gotten to share a little more of my Orion background with her – now I just gotta figure out how to get her to stop calling me "mistress of the winter constellations"… and I know she's just kidding, but I don't want anyone hearing that! We're both learning, which is the whole point of being in Starfleet. Gotta go meet Mariner at the bar! We've been talking acid punk and are now moving on to a totally different genre – Klingon acid rock. Girls drinks!" 

 Bradward Boimler (released , following )
 "Personal log. Rutherford and I handled the illicit mugato harvest on Frylon IV through a delicate dance of negotiation; we used our diplomath skills and... and... we met a really cool Tellarite named Patingi, and he died trying to explain mugatos to us! I thought I'd pay my respects to him and at least learn a little about his life. I did some research and found out that Patingi was brave, like, really brave. Sure, he didn't really know that much about mugatos, but he didn't let that stop him. He was out there because he thought he could use his book smarts instead of real world experience! That's like, what I have to do! But, you know, not get my head eaten. At the end of the day, you gotta follow your passions. Which is why, even though it's really going to hurt, I'm going to keep practicing anbo-jyutsu and challenge Mariner to a rematch. FOR PATINGI." 

 Shaxs (released , following )
 "Personal log, Stardate 58053.9. We just beamed back from Starbase 25. After a long day of herding a swarm of hopped up Dooplers, the bridge crew let off some steam at one of the base's dive bars. I've seen unspeakable horrors in my day, but nothing compares to Dr. T'Ana after five Romulan whiskeys. I don't know how getting drunk gives her so much energy! Somehow she got into the aviary! Luckily, I was able to pry the avians from her claws with minimal damage, but those birds nearly walked with the Prophets tonight. Ugh – is there anything that can cure this hangover? Usually I'd go straight to sickbay, but if I feel this bad, I can't imagine the mood Dr. T'Ana's in. Probably safer just to replicate some waffles."  

 T'Ana (released , following )
 "Stardate: I don't know, eight, who cares. I just spent an entire night treating – what's his name? Purple hair, brittle bones... Ensign Boimler. Apparently he burned himself on hot replicated beans? Ugh I don't want to know what freaky [REDACTED] those Lower Deckers get up to. That's a whole night, gone. I had a romantic holodeck night planned with Shaxs – that's OUR time, the guy has been on FIRE since he's come back from the dead. But no, instead I'm at work, arm deep in [REDACTED], healing mantis lacerations and pig bites. I didn't work this hard to come this far to ice Ensign Boimler's sprained coccyx! [REDACTED]. Calmdown, T'Ana, you're getting too wound up again. Where the hell is my [REDACTED] yarn!? I NEED MY YARN, STAT."

 "Personal log, Stardate 58109.3. Or should I say DRAGONdate. So it turns out Billups is from a planet full of castles and dragons, how cool is that? And I got to go and help fix the engines on his mom's fancy Hysperian Cruiser! Sure, it was all a trap to try and get him to have sex and take the throne, but you know how rare it is to get to work on a whole new engine? Ooh, baby, it was worth it!After we figured out what was going on, all the engineers chanted for Billups for like ten minutes straight. Then he made his mom give us all a feast: so I got to do two feasts in one day! It was super fun, and the court jester fell over his chair on purpose!Oops, I gotta go, a jousting tournament's about to begin. It's probably another of the Queen's tricks, but who cares? Billups will never fall for that stuff!Billups! Billups! Billups!" 

 D'Vana Tendi (released , following )
 "Personal log, Stardate 58114.8.Woof, that was close! Shari yn Yem tried to sabotage the Cerritos... but for a minute there I got to be senior medical officer, which was honestly really amazing! Now I know what not to do if I ever have to euthanize a Klingon.To be honest, I'm kind of worried about Boimler. He sort of hasn't been the same since the Borg encounter drill. The other night I woke up and saw him standing next to his bunk in the dark. His eyes were wide open and when I told him to go back to bed, he just kept saying 'Freedom is irrelevant'? I think I gotta get him to talk to Dr. Migleemo for some de-assimilation therapy.I'm sure he'll shake it off with a little time and a whole lot of pesto." 

 Carol Freeman (release , following ) 
 "Captain's log, supplemental. After an anomalous energy reading cut our warp short, we got pulled into an extremely odd altercation. I still don't understand why the Klingons would help the Pakleds... or why they arbitrarily stopped. Starfleet will sort it out, the bigger news is that Mariner and I had some much needed mother/daughter quality time today, and it went great! I need to make an effort to schedule mother/daughter socializing more often. Sure, we pretty much bickered the entire day... but we did it as a family. You know, I think I'll reserve the phaser range for the next warp, you know just so we can both blow off some steam." 

 Beckett Mariner (released , following )
 "Personal log, Stardate 58130.6. What the [REDACTED] just happened?! We just - We totally saved the day, but then a bunch of Starfleet security goons show up out of nowhere and arrest mom!? This is [REDACTED]. Me and mom were just starting to trust each other. Like, like without forcing it! Yeah, we were getting along and BAM – military court ruins it. No. No. You know what, no. I can't trust Starfleet on this one. My mom's innocent, and I'm gonna make sure she's back in the command chair even if I have to go to Earth and bust that trial open myself. Boimler! Wake up, we gotta research Starfleet law right now! I, Boimler! I SAID WAKE UP WE'RE HITTING THE BOOKS."

 "Personal log, Stardate 58168.6. Hoo boy, feels good to be off Earth and back on a raisin-free Cerritos. Between Mandolina's self doubt and Lianne's obsession with showering together, it's a wonder that vineyard functions without me. With Captain Freeman's reputation restored, thanks to Starfleet's secret investigation into the Pakled bombing, we can finally get back to normal. I can't believe Mariner thought my logs were unusable in court – they're practically canon! So what if I include personal peaks and valleys? She's not perfect, she almost flew the Cerritos to Qo'noS! It was pretty intense... Speaking of intense, I thought Earth's atmosphere and familiar foods would help my gas situation, but it's only gotten worse. I'm scared. I'm in a never ending battle with my own body." 

 Jack Ransom (released , following ) 
 "Personal log, Stardate 58211.6. Another successful mission in the books. Sure, the engineers might have struggled on Dulaine, but I was able to swoop in right in the nick of time, and Mariner fell in with minimal back talk. And, of course, I did GREAT today. And you know what? Those Dulainian gods were pretty cool. After I showed Morgo my ripped obliques he totally mellowed out! Honestly, at the top of the mission, I thought Mariner was going to go rogue, but she proved me wrong. In fact, she was right about not leaving the liaising to our engineers. I think my influence and leadership skills are already inspiring her to be a better officer. By the time I'm through with her, Mariner might just be bridge material. Heck, she might even earn the most important spot on the ship: spotting me in the gym."

 "Personal log, Stardate 58256.8. Today was so so so so so great! I got to tell Captain Freeman to shut up! It was so intense, I think I might have blacked out for a second! Dr. T'Ana was right to believe in me, because I SAVED THE DAY! I knew something was off about that stupid stone pyramid. I can't believe the Scrubble and those outpost scientists were working together... I hate to say it, but why are outpost scientists always so creepy and weird? I'm still getting used to Dr. Migleemo as my senior science mentor. We may have different interests, but there is a lot I can learn from him. For example, today he explained the difference between marmalade, preserve, and jam... He's very focused on food, but he means well. Oops! I'm late for our dinner meeting! Bye, log!" 

 Samanthan Rutherford (released , following )
 "Personal log, Stardate 58312.6. I feel great after a refreshing day spent fixing stuff on the . Sure, I didn't actually relax at any point, but the Captain seemed refreshed, and that's what matters! What I actually want to log about is the dang Minooki stuff. It feels like every other week the Captain's being transformed into an ancient god, getting her brain expanded by a computer, or she's stuck in a cave. I don't know if she has to wash her hands more or stop touching ancient idols or what, but I'm starting to think she gets a kick out of metamorphosizing. Anyway, tomorrow is hot dog day and I– Goopy! Tendi! I found Goopy! Seriously, the jar isn't working any more! I think Goopy's getting smarter"
