MED_A_Hilbert to ALL

[tarakan]

[ it's Dr. Grumpus, bothering everybody about medical crap again! ]

Now that we have two medical officers awake and have recently returned from an alien planet, basic check-ups will be re-implemented. Check-ups will be BASIC: a P-HYMN-1.A scan, check on bracelet, and basic questions. These are mandatory for all crew members. There are only a handful of us, it is small ship, do not make me come and find you.

There is no set schedule for check-ups yet, as the moment I set schedule, it will inevitably have to be changed thanks to an off-planet visit or emotional manipulation from giant space alien or whatever will be thrown at us. Needless to say, after any ship-wide event affecting all or multiple members of the crew, you will at least undergo basic once-over.

As always, feel free to ask myself or Dr. Baizhu for assistance should you develop pains, unexplained symptoms, or deviance from the norm.

I also would like to thank crew members for continued assistance with the quarantine process involved in providing medicine to Captain Drake. Anyone who wishes to join that roster, please reply here.

I hope that is all. Please do not do anything that gives me cause to make shipwide announcement.

Please let security know if you need assistance getting the crew to come in for their check-ups.

[ what? he's helping! ]

[tarakan]

[ This is exactly the sort of help Hilbert likes. Things like "a good bedside manner" are for losers. ]

Thank you. You will be the first I will call if we have any hesitant patients.

That being said, when would be a good time to give you a quick scan?

[theomachy]

I'm able to make time either before or after any of my shifts. My next two are third shift, but after that is my second shift rotation.

[tarakan]

Then I will meet you before your third shift. It should take a few minutes at most—would not want to keep you.

[theomachy]

Of course. That time frame works, I'll be there.

[Oh this is going to end great when it comes to the weird little specimens that are about to be set loose on the ship. Rest in fucking pieces, Hilbert's schedule and peace of mind.

For their part... Rin's response is prompt but unenthusiastic. Isn't it nice to be appreciated?]

Understood, Doctor Hilbert. I have additional data to deliver on medication effectiveness.

[tarakan]

[ he is going to be SO MAD when those weird little floaty things show up (until he hangs out near one too long and just blisses the hell out) ]

Good to hear. If you want to deliver data in person, I can meet wherever you are.

[itdoesntlikeyou]

[Once more a metaphorical handshake of solidarity is exchanged.]

Sample processing in the Hangar.

[They even send a more specific location marker, for one of the sides, sequestered from the larger space with the shuttles.] PPE not required.

[tarakan]

I will see you soon.

[ And then, about ten or so minutes later, Hilbert makes his way to the hanger. He clears his throat a little, just to tell Rin he's there, before continuing, ]

Should take only minute or so of your time. Please tell me when you have reached stopping point in sample processing.

[ YEAH HE KNEW THAT WOULD HAPPEN, YOU ASSHOLE.

So hey, don't mind Hilbert as he leaves the medical bay and starts prowling the ship, trying to find where the fuck Wolfwood might be. ]

[lastdecember]

[ He's not down in his usual spot, the faraday cage repair chamber in the guts of the ship, so good luck finding him! He could be anywhere, on any deck. He could be in the walls, under the flooring, hell, he could have suited up and be clinging to the outside of the ship making repairs out there!

Or Hilbert could check the roster for Drake's medication and note that Wolfwood's in quarantine in his quarters, stuck there for another (checks watch) three hours. ]

[tarakan]

[ Hilbert does check the roster, eventually (after scouring Wolfwood's usual hiding spots, of course). And hey, when those three hours are up, there's Hilbert, waiting outside of Wolfwood's quarters.

Wolfwood's got to leave eventually. And when he does? Hilbert will just instantly scan him with that P-HYMN-1.A scanner, no questions asked, no permission given. Asking to take someone's vitals is for chumps. ]

[ there's close to an hour before this reply comes in, like maybe this person was asleep or not paying attention or maybe they had to take a good hard look at their inner demons and discern whether they have the wherewithal to perform the task in question without having a germaphobia-induced goddamn meltdown.

yeah, it's definitely one of those things. ]

I can help with the medication

[ can he, though? only one way to find out. ]

[tarakan]

[ That's unexpected. Nice, but unexpected. ]

Meet me in medical bay. I will explain the procedure and put you on the roster.

[dirtdevil]

on my way

[ if nothing else, he manages to make it there without having second thoughts—which is good, because having to send another message like hey man sorry I changed my mind I'm too scared would have been pretty humiliating.

there are only like ten people awake on this ship. literally everyone would know him as That Guy. it's the last thing he needs.

it does make it a lot easier to find the exact person you're looking for when the crew is so microscopic, though. when he arrives at the med bay shortly after, he looks stiff and uncomfortable—or maybe he always looks like that?

it's a little of both. ]

Alright. What do I need to know?

[ let's just get this shit over with. ]

[tarakan]

Procedure for giving medicine to Captain Drake is streamlined. You release aerosolized medicine into air supply for the bridge. Possibility of backstream is minimal, but existent. As such, to prevent possibility of infection, L3TH3 requires anyone who administrates medicine to engage in forty-eight hour quarantine.

Process of administrating medicine is easy. Obviously I cannot do live demonstration, but unless you have any questions, can walk you through the steps.

[ Hilbert is calm, slightly grumpy, business as usual with his tone. ]

[anesthetic_rage]

Yeah yeah, regular checkups. Got it, mom.

[He was super glad this was happening regularly again. especially what with the bubbles and not knowing if they had contagions.]

Do we have any word on possible psych evals? I'm just going to admit that this trip might be getting to me a little bit, and there's no point hiding that.

[tarakan]

I would like to point out that neither myself nor Dr. Baizhu are trained psychiatrists. That was Emerwen.

[ Dr. Emerwen, who had to be re-introduced into stasis due to cryogenics problems. ]

But if you wish to talk, I will listen.

[anesthetic_rage]

I'm aware.

Honestly, I'm just going to ask you this. You been having any weirdass flashbacks you don't remember?

[tarakan]

[ Well then. ]

I believe this is something best talked about in person. Meet me in medical wing at nearest convenience.

[ that's a yes. ]

MED_B_0

[heartofhealing]

Should we set up a system for check-ups on each other?

[tarakan]

That would probably be best.

[ Hilbert doesn't LIKE it, but it's a good idea. ]

I figure routine can be the same. Initial check-up now, follow-up when something odd inevitably happens next.

[heartofhealing]

Oh, absolutely. It'll be the easiest, plus we're working together a lot so we can monitor for any... effects.

[ Pause. ]

I've been meaning to ask, how are your surgery skills?

[tarakan]

I will not be able to do delicate, tense operations, but they will do in pinch. Why do you ask?
