Now that the first meeting with the Atlantis’s Captain was done and out of the way, it was time for what most people considered the less pleasant check-ins.

In Emerson’s opinion the initial physical evaluation was the simplest one. With a doctor for a father, Audrey was generally quite at ease around sickbay and medical equipment. After all, sickbay visits had been a constant growing up, although generally not as a patient, but rather as the daughter of the ship’s CMO. As a child, she had spent many afternoons sitting in a corner, playing with a spare medical tricorder, only to end up pestering half of the staff with questions as she pointed the machine at every new thing – person or object – that came in through the doors. Audrey had mostly fond memories of those days, although she was sure the Rosalind Franklin’s doctors and nurses didn’t share the same feelings with her.

From the Bridge, Emerson took her time to deck 12, stopping often to admire her new home. Curious by nature, she peeked everywhere she could, ending up taking wrong turns and having to backtrack her steps simply because something had caught her eye.

Finally making it into the largest sickbay she had ever been on, Audrey signaled one of the nurses passing by. “Excuse me, hi!” She greeted a little too enthusiastically. “I’m here for my physical… I just boarded last night… can you point me to whom I should talk to?”

The nurse blinked at Audrey. “I’m not sure where she is,” he muttered, looking around. “Tatyl! Can you take this nice officer to your mom for me?”

The little andorian bounced over obligingly, always happy to help. “Sure! Right this way!” She grabbed the woman’s hand and began walking to her moms office. “I think she might be in a meeting right now, but I’ll ask where she wants you to sit.”

Audrey smiled as the young girl happily made her way to them. Some things never changed… she couldn’t help but see her past self in the little Andorian and she wondered for a moment if her future would pan out similar to Emerson’s. The truth was, there were a lot more people like her than she had believed for a long time, and sometimes she still forgot about it. Seeing the innocent joy of the girl around sickbay was a good reminder.

Emerson let herself be guided by the hand to the CMO’s office. “Did I hear it correctly, is your name Tatyl?” Audrey asked. “That’s such a pretty name.” She said with a smile. “You know, if your mom is in a meeting I can come back later. I don’t want to interrupt her when there’s no need to.”

“Yup! I like it too, my appa picked it. What’s your name?” The two were almost to the CMO’s office when Tatyl veered to the right. “She says biobed 4, cause she needs five more minutes.” Evrilla was, in fact, in the middle of solving an argument she was only too happy to escape from, the 5 minutes were more so she could set an alarm and make an escape than actually make any headway in her meeting.
