"Initiating sensor sweep, looking for Romulan life signs and energy signatures. This could take more than a couple minutes. If there is anything I've learned about Romulan bases in 'disputed' territory, they are rarely detected without a painstakingly thourough sensor scan."

"Sir, if this is indeed a Romulan probe, we may want to bring it aboard. I can map out the distortion field with enough accuracy for a transporter lock.  However, miraculously procuring a damaged Romulan probe with an intact cloaking device and no Romulan opposition is quite a peculiar senario. Romulans keep watch over their possessions.
Another theory that I have  is that this probe may be one of many forming a networked cloaking field around the planetoid. The probe is sending it's information somewhere, and if we attempt to access the probe's computer, we can gain access to the network, but our intrusion may also risk informing the Romulans. If this is the case, we may want to take a low orbit and look for further evidence of a facility on the planetoid."

"Sir, I am picking up a minute variable in the immediate subspace field around the planetoid. This could be the result of some sort of unseen subspace phenomenon, or it could be evidence of malfunctioning Romulan field actuators. There could be some sort of cloaked facility or probe, however, if that is the case, they will undoubtedly know of the malfunction and our presence may have already been discovered."

Commodore, I know it is difficult to find an assignment for a Cardassian in Starfleet Intelligence, but I request a possible post change.

OFF: My posting was good at first, until I realized that the Blackfire has been pretty much inactive since July. I post more than every other month /-: Any day-to-day assignments?

*at attention*

Cadet Hogue Raynor, reporting in, Sir
(Prefer science, helm, or social/ambassadorial duties)

Thank you, sir!

OFF: Btw, there is no FSS Lt Cmdr insignia. Sub-commander maybe?
