Following introduction with the chief science officer, Tobias had one final reporting obligation before a full 24 hours off. Now in sickbay, he patiently awaited the attention of an on-duty nurse or doctor. His proactive approach to completing check-ins early reflected his enthusiasm and commitment to professionalism, eager to acquaint himself with the ship and its systems during the upcoming time off.

“Rax. Tobias Rax,” a voice called out. Sick bay was never too busy however for some reason today there seemed to be a rush in the office. A woman in about her mid-thirties called out the name before replacing the donut back into her mouth.

A man next to Tobias raised his hand and started to stand up. It was clear he was going to try and pass off himself as the man the doctor was calling out. The reason was not obvious. He did not seem to be hurt at all. At a casual glance, it would seem that he just wanted to jump the line.

Tobias was on the verge of rising when the individual seated beside him initiated the first move. Rising in tandem, Tobias followed suit, his movements carrying a subtle awkwardness, possibly rooted in confusion. “Excuse me, sir,” Tobias ventured, his tone infused with a diplomatic touch and a hint of underlying anxiety.

“I believe there might be a miscommunication. The name called was Tobias Rax, and unless, in an exceedingly rare instance, we happen to share the same name, I believe the call was intended for me.”

“If you sit down there is a twenty credit chip in it for you,” the man said through the corner of his mouth. “I have two dates tonight and to go to both of them I need to get through this sick bay thing first.” The confidence of the Ensign next to Tobias was clearly evident. “Normally these things take forever so be a pal. Sit down, let me take this and when I get to the med bed I can do the whole opps thing.”

“Tobias,” the doctor repeated again elongating the name as she finished the bite of her donut as she walked towards the two men. Holding out the donut she gestured between them. “Are you both attached in some Trill way I have not learned about or am I supposed to guess which one of you is Rax” she pretended to inspect them visually them before taking another bite of her donut.

A twenty-credit chip? Who did this person think he was, attempting to sway a Starfleet officer with mere credits? And who cares if he had two dates? Lucky for some! Tobias hadn’t been involved in a romantic affair since… well, since who cares! He was here for his medical, as instructed at the time.

“I apologize, but we most certainly are not joined together, and it’s quite evident that I am Tobias Rax, Ensign, and Trill,” he asserted, gesturing towards the faint marks on his head. The lingering scent of sugar from the woman’s doughnut only heightened his annoyance. Closing his eyes and taking a breath, he continued, “So, please wait your turn, and your… ‘dates’ can wait,” he emphasized the word ‘dates’ with a hint of disdain.
