That’s alot of bumps.

Marius walked into the medical bay. The pristine white walls gleamed under the soft but bright lights. He canned the area, the multi-functional beds the tricorders were well kept and tended to.

“I have to be honest Dr. Logan, I usually don’t make house calls.”

OOC: trying to keep myself from going AWOL every three days.

IC: “Captain. Please come in. How can I help you sir?” She asked him with a look on her face. “Would you like anything to drink or something?” She asked him another question.

Marius tilted his head at her, “are you offering me alcohol?” He glanced about.

“Are you one of those old style ‘country’ doctors that hides a bottle of bourbon under your desk, ‘for medicinal purposes.’” He actually made the air quotes.

“Captain. Did you just quote a legendary doctor?” She asked. “I mean I might. But you didn’t hear it from. But anyways what can I do for ya?” She said to him. “Not that a bottle of bourbon is anything special. But I do need a drink. Would you like on sir?” She asked another question.

“I spent a lot of time reading and watching stories of the ‘Adventures of the Enterprise, so some of that stuff must have worked its way in there. What always bothered me the most was how most of the time they all would have been booted out of the fleet today.”

“Sure,” Calvin agreed to the drink. As to the question of why he was here, Calvin continued. “How did it go with the counselor? Is she willing to help out if needed?” Her file stated she held certifications as a nurse.

Ashley pulled to glasses out and bourbon. She then poured them a glass each. “Well, it got a little complicated. To be honest. I asked her to help and she said sure. But she also had brought up the fact that I stay here in sickbay to much and need to get out more. You know make some connections. Talk to other people. Have fun. You know. But the thing is. I’m someone who mainly focuses on my work then having fun. Is that a bad thing captain? Or should I be doing other things other than staying here in sickbay? But the problem is, as we both already know with how short staffed that I am, I stay here most of the time to make sure that things are clean and is in place. Let alone who knows if a member of the crew shows up and I’m not here. You know what I mean on that?” She asked the captain.

“So you want me to say that I don’t want you to work hard?” He questioned the framing of the question. “I think the counselor was probably responding to what you said the problem was, so the answer would be the opposite. Also, you actually don’t have to be in sickbay to respond to medical emergencies. Your physical presence is secondary to your availability. At best you can be on duty 8, 12 hours that means half the time, at best, you aren’t here… so what are you really trying to do?”

“I know I’m not typically always here. I may be at the holodeck or something I don’t know. But that’s all I really do. I go from my quarters to here. On my break I go to the mess hall. Then back here. After I am done with my shift I go to the holodeck and then back to my quarters. But that’s really all I do.” She said. Trying to explain it to the captain.
