Issac found himself pausing outside of the sickbay on deck 3. Having only recently arrived on the USS Dresden to his first posting, he had been aboard only long enough to find his quarters and secure his possessions. It had finally settled in his mind that this was the new life he had signed up for, roughly four years ago when he enrolled at StarFleet Academy.
Issac brushed off non-existent debris from his still-new shirt; only recently had he finally traded in his Cadet uniform for a Junior Officer’s Security uniform in gold.
Collecting himself, he opened the sickbay door and took a moment to orient himself, looking for the Chief Medical Officer to proceed with the medical check-in.

Ensign Issac Forgrave (Security)

Sickbay, Issac would see as his eyes seeked the CMO, was bustling with activity without actually seeming busy. There were only a couple of occupied biobeds, the rest sat unoccupied, ready for the next patient. By all appearences it seemed like an ordinary Sickbay, except for the small fluffy black and white dog that trotted around happily as if he ran the place. It only took a split second for the dog to notice the newcomer and make a beeline for Issac. It’s tail wagged back and forth faster than before as it sniffed at the smells around Issacs clothes.

The CMO was just dismissing her patient when she realised that the Enj had strayed again. Her eyes shot up as she scanned the area to make sure someone hadn’t accidently let him roam the Dresden by himself again. She didn’t need another call from Security saying they’d found him in the Jefferies tubes, or Science to (jokingly) say that Enj had volenteered for an experiment. As soon as she saw a new face and Enj at his feet, an amused smile stretched across her lips. Looked like Enj was doing his usual meet and greet. After nearly a year, Enj knew most of the crew, and most of the crew knew Enj who had quickly become Sickbay’s mascot.

“Oh! Dog!” Issac exclaimed as the small dog greeted him. Issac crouched down and began ruffling the critter’s chin and chest in way of greeting, letting it sniff and lick as it pleased.

As she approached Enj flicked his head back, and ran between her and Forgrave as if trying to introduce her to the newcommer. “Is he bothering you?” the doctor asked as she approached. She was young, and her petite size made her look younger, like she was fresh out of the acadamy but the pips on her uniform indicated she was a (junior) Lieutenant. “The staff and patients don’t normally mind him so he’s allowed to roam around Sickbay, but if he’s being a bother I can send him away.”

“Naw, he’s a sweetheart; ain’t botherin’ me a bit.” Issac’s thick southern accent lilted a bit on “he’s,” leaving the question on the friendly dog’s gender. Issac stood, glancing down at his mostly-black uniform as he rose. “Probably ought to borrow a lint roller or a bit of tape off of ya, though…” Issac grinned sheepishly. “I’ll admit to being caught off guard though, can’t say I was expecting much in the way of pets aboard a ship. Pleasant surprise though!”

“We have a lint roller. I’m well stocked,” Elanie smiled, faintly amused “Enj has been with me since the Acadamy, he’s my…” she paused for a moment, he was more than just a pet to her, but he was no longer the therapy dog that her cousin had intended him to be. “… companion. He goes where I go. He’s a good boy.” she finished, clearing up the question of the dogs gender.

“Ah, Manners! Pardon me, I got distracted by the four-legged cutie; though somethin’ tells me it ain’t the first time that’s happened. Ensign Issac Forgrave, Reporting for Medical Check-in Ma’am.” Issac stood a bit straighter as he announced himself, coming to a loose Attention and extending his hand forwards to shake.

Looking at Ensign Forgrave, one would find a sturdily-built man in is early thirties, of an average height. Immediately notable would be a thick, dark mustache that had been lightly waxed and styled. Combined with the short, almost shaved hair on his head, Issac had a fairly distinctive appearance. A bit of a lingering grin from the unexpected canine greeting left his facial expression somewhat lopsided.

“No, you’re not the first. He’s a bit of a crowd favourite this one.” Elaine smiled, leaning down to ruffle up Enj’s ears fondly. The dog lapped lightly at her hand in return “Doctor Elanie Janvier,” straightening up the good doctor shook Forgrave’s hand, “Welcome aboard.”

Ending the handshake Janvier stepped back and guestured to a nearby (empty) biobed. “Take a seat, and we’ll get your medical out of the way for you. You’ll be itching to get settled in, I’m sure.”

Issac moved over to the suggested biobed, taking a seat. “I’ll admit to it having been a long day already; I suppose it’s what we signed up for though.”
“Anything in particular y’all are looking for? I’m uh, not sure if y’all have any specific things you’re looking for with the on-boarding other than routine medical. I’m assuming ya got my file as well.” Issac said the last with a bit of a shrug.
OOC: I do have a brief medical wite-up in Issac’s bio currently.
