As the approached the door to sickbay, Taiya could sense Lia’s trepidation and gently took her hand. As the doors swished open, they made their way to the nearest doctor and Lia cautiously hid behind Alex’s leg, her head poking out to survey the scene.

Worthy of surprise, the sickbay was at a lull; its usual hubbub of life stalled by a lack of patients. As it was a general theme for the shift, majority of the department’s officers were on call but sent away from the bay to pursue effective work. The CMO saw little reason in keeping her infirmary staffed with idle doctors. Of those present, a young, Vulcan doctor turned towards Taiya’s family.

“Excuse me doctor, do you have time to complete our boarding exams or would you prefer me to make an appointment?” she asked, hoping that they would be able to get them over and done given Lia’s anxiety.

“An appointment will not be necessary, Commander.” T’Aria assured them, gesturing to a nearby biobed. “If you would have a seat, I will be with you momentarily.”

“Nurse O’Connor, please assist me at biobeds two through four in the primary bay.” She called out, knowing the nurse was close enough to hear her if he was listening.

The nurse, staggering from his routine inventory check (which he was grateful to be distracted from if only for a few moments), retrieved a tricorder and made his way over. He appeared gauche in his mannerisms, but his medical aptitude made up for his lack of physical coordination. “Goodday,” he greeted.
