[Sickbay]: Round Four Scans and Vaccines
There has been quite a lot of activity in Sickbay over the last couple of days. In addition to new guests arriving on the Enterprise, all of whom need to be cleared and vaccinated when necessary, there are the wounded who have come back from Alemar III and those looking in on them. Dr. Crusher has never been more glad that she isn't short-staffed.
While Lieutenant Worf and his security detail bring in the new passengers, Beverly ensures those recuperating have enough space and privacy. Beds may be limited, but nobody will be on the floor in her sickbay. For those who haven't been here before, Sickbay is fairly ordinary for a ship's hospital. There are no terrifying devices or humming machines you might see in a sci-fi thriller. The biobeds along the walls are equipped with biofunction monitors, but look fairly standard. Instead of silver trays filled with metal tools and sawblades, there are an array of small devices that look as harmless as cell phones.
As for the staff, they're all well-groomed and friendly. As a matter of fact, all personnel look harmless. Well, perhaps excluding the sun avatar, but Trance Gemini is as skilled as the Starfleet officers.
"All right, come in," one of them calls out as you enter. "Don't be shy. It's just a scan and a hypospray, nothing to worry about."
[ooc: Open log! For new characters (August and September apps), tagging isn't mandatory but ICly going to sickbay is. So if you'd prefer to skip threading with one of our doctors, you can handwave that your character got a clean bill of health and a shot and were sent on their merry way. For those who are tagging, we have Julian Bashir, Trance Gemini, and Simon Tam on deck, with Beverly Crusher by request only. So please specify in the subject line of your tag who you would like. For those returned from the Alemar III plot, if you are not requesting a thread with a doctor but would like your character open for visitors, put "Visiting Post" in your subject line, or specify if it's locked to specific visitors. If you would like more details about sickbay, here's the wiki page. If you haven't made your intro yet, you can assume the doctors will want to see your character shortly after they arrive, and backtagging is love!]
Re: Trance!
"That's me." Trance pulled a curtain, sectioning off an area away from prying eyes and curious ears, wishing the Enterprise had something akin to Andromeda's Privacy Mode.
"You have my word I wont say anything unless lives depend on it. May I ask who sent you to me?" There could be a number. Tyr was doubtful, but a possibility. Harper, Dylan. Even Julian if this woman had something more nanotechnology related.
no subject
Marion takes in a deep calming breath. She doesn't want to have a melt down over talking to someone about this. Hell, she talked to Commander Worf about this almost right away. This shouldn't be such a big deal.
"A few years ago I was forcibly infected with a... pretty ugly disease. It won't kill me. Hell, it gives me some pretty interesting advantages it's just... Problematic. From a logistics and medical stand point." She needs to just come out and say it.
"I'm a werewolf."
no subject
"I assume you'll need someplace private to change. Access to extra food and nutrients after? Would you like me to put in a recommendation for a private room?"
Trance did not make it a big deal. It was as if they were discussing the weather or the artificial gravity.
"You're secret is safe. Don't worry." This was going better than the time with Clay, who kept telling her he'd have to kill her if she found out. Trance had said that was fine.
no subject
"And yeah. I need someplace private. I can't hold back if I gotta shift... I get big too." Pony sized really but she would rather not mention that. It's a little worrying that she gets so big in Marion's mind.
"And food helps. High fats and protein. Since I can't exactly hunt... Gotta eat whatever I can get here." Marion considers her normal habits on a full moon.
"Actually, if.... a private room might help. I'm not always... safe to be around. I try not to hurt anyone but... I need a place I can go be by myself."
no subject
Trance motioned for her to lie down on the biobed. "Do you mind if I get a scan of you? That way if I'm not available someone else can help you. I'll put a note in your record if you wish that you'd prefer to be seen by me."
no subject
She doesn't even worry for a moment about discussing this with Trance despite how similar Trance looks to some of the faeries Marion has seen once or twice back on her world. She won't bring that up however as it might be a little silly sounding.
"Not yet. I'm working on figuring out the food. A lot of the Klingon options are.... actually really healthy for me it seems like."
And she should never ever be introduced to Klingon Bloodwine. Hilariously bad things would happen. Tables would possibly be slain. The hangover the next day would be the sort that would convince her to never drink again possibly.
"Uh.... Nope. If something ever goes wrong we'll need that on file." She pulls a slight face. "I'm not... so comfortable with doctors. Because of the scars I have from my original infection. But I can see others if I need to. I'd just.... rather not. Unless it's urgent."
