[Sickbay]: Round One scans and vaccines

[ten_fwd_npcs]

[ 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.]

Why does he need to have his brain looked at?

And then, the pad was on his face. "Got it." Was muffled behind it and he really did have to fight to not jerk back given it was suddenly in his face. An energy reading that he wanted to be sure wasn't triggered?

...was this thing reading his Morphin energy? It wasn't going to kill anyone but he never knew it could seen, especially not in his demorphed state. "Um, pretty sure I don't have anything that's gonna kill anyone on the ship. I'd assume it would have happened by now."

[shut_up_dammit]

The energy didn't fluctuate. Despite all of his human readings, this was abnormal. Nothing that would kill him, or anyone else on the ship, Leonard realize. The frequency was just too low. He took the pad off Adam's face once all the data was collected.

"This reading come as a surprise to you?"

Because if it's a racial normal, like a difference in the evolution of humans, Leonard might just have to let it go. But they were don't playing twenty questions yet, not even close.

Adam rubbed his face when the pad came off but blinked at Bones' words. He took a look but he wasn't entirely sure what he was looking at. The color was awful dark though...

Wait, would that be his morphin energy? He gave a quick glance to Billy but he couldn't call him over. That would be too suspicious but he did want to ask if he had a weird blue energy reading, or Andros and having it red. Instead, he looked back at Bones and shook his head. "Your tech is really advanced, I don't know anything about readings, especially from a medical standpoint."

That was true, at least. He really didn't know if what he was looking at was the morphin energy or not, but he didn't want to take a guess in front of Bones. He couldn't break his oath.

[shut_up_dammit]

Leonard frowned deeply at the computer for a moment before he sighed. Alright. He just had to assume that the reading was normal for the kid, as much as he didn't want to. Then he looked at Adam with a bit of distaste, but not for the kid, for the reading.

"There isn't any special abilities that you have that you think could make this kind of reading?"

[immafrog]

Adam shrugged at him in a helpless gesture. "None that I can think of."

So hey, he's not denying he has any special abilities, but just not admitting it's related to the reading.

[shut_up_dammit]

Leonard sighed.

"Alright, kid, you can go. Something comes up about that energy reading, you tell me. I need to log it, alright?"

[immafrog]

Adam nodded. "Sure. Not sure what I'd be looking for but I'll try."

...not. Adam is keeping his oath, Bones.

[shut_up_dammit]

"I'm not sure anything'll pop, but keep your eyes open, kid. Now get out of here. Unless you want another run through, but I get a feeling it'll be a waste of time for the both of us."

Get out of his station, Adam. Unless you want some shots. He could give you a few. It won't hurt. Much.
