[Sickbay]: Round One scans and vaccines

[ Captain's Log: a Meeting with the Senior Staff. Wherein Picard discusses what to do with their new, er. "Guests." ]







As you enter sickbay tonight, escorted there by Lieutenant Worf and his security detail, you may notice it isn't all that unusual. There are no terrifying devices or humming machines you could 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 Chief Medical Officer Crusher herself, she's well-groomed and kindly, wearing her teal uniform and a blue coat. No masks, no rubber gloves. The most dangerous thing about her is that maternal look in her eyes; the one that scolds you for not doing your homework, or leaving your dirty dishes in your room.

The crew makes no promises for Dr. McCoy, on the other hand. He isn't one of ours. You should probably watch your neck.

"All right, don't be shy," Dr. Crusher calls out as you enter. "Come in and sit down. It's just a scan and maybe a hypospray, nothing to worry about."

Probably.


[ooc: This is an open log for everybody. Tagging isn't mandatory, but 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 Bones McCoy and Beverly Crusher (NPC) on deck, so if you'd prefer one over the other just specify it in your tag. If you would like more details about sickbay, here's the wiki page. If you haven't made your OP yet, you can assume the doctors will want to see your character shortly after they arrive.]

The tiniest smile appeared on his face. "Yeah, we can do that. Doesn't mean you should go around and get yourself into any damn trouble just to see how. You'll probably find out sooner or later without looking."

Leonard hovered the scanner above her face, not touching the skin. Then his eyes wandered to the reading screen.

"This'll give us the injury history you have, along with current injuries." He glanced at her. "But if you're fit as a fiddle, I can't imagine a lot's gonna pop up, is it?"

"Can't make any promises, Doc," she laughs, breezy and unconcerned. "Trouble kinda follows me around. It's like an old dog I just don't have the heart to kick."

She's sitting patiently, watching the scanner with undisguised interest. "Say, that's a neat little doohickey. Sure is an improvement over the old 'knock 'em on the knee' approach, huh?"

Not a lot does pop up: she's fit, in her mid twenties, and vaccinated against the usual twentieth and twenty-first century ailments, and she knows it. There's no lack of confidence in her posture or tone. "So, how do I check out?"

The readings kickback. He's actually pretty happy with it. Better than most of the readings he's gotten. Thank god, someone seemingly normal. His smile grew a bit.

"Yeah, that's the only nice thing I can say about technology - sure makes being a doctor a hell of a lot easier."

He set the scanner aside. "Just lay down for me. The bed'll do one final reading. Maybe have to give you a hypospray to catch you up on all the vaccines you're missing, then you'll be free to go."

She lays down without argument, still chatting easily away. "The bed will do a reading? I don't suppose you've got any extras going wanting -- I can think of a couple uses for a cot like that back home, easy."

Leonard couldn't help the tiny chuckle that left his lips. "Afraid not. If we ever get to a Starfleet base, though, you might want to take a chance in asking them. Though you might get the same damn answer."

The readings kicked back as normal.

"Alright, you can sit up for me." He picked up a hypospray. "It's like a shot. It'll catch you up on everything so you don't get some disease and die. We don't want that. These beds can do a lot, but they can't bring back the dead."
