It was a warm planet, a beach and beautiful ocean.  Straight out of a vacation vid.  Ariadne was relaxing in the sand, listening to the movement of the waves, enjoying the warmth... Then, someone tapped on her shoulder.  She tried to ignore it, but the tapping continued...

The young Jedi woke up, shaking her head.  She looked at the medical droid and groaned.  "Oh, fine, I fell asleep.  Thank you for waking me."  Despite other's prejudices, she treated all droids, as she did her non-human patients, with polite care.  One never knew when a droid might need to help, and even droids understood kindness.

She got up, straitening her robes, and moved to check on the clone.  He was breathing well, his life signs looked normal.  She patted his leg, then moved around to check everything else in the medical bay.  She made sure the medicines were in place, that the tools were in place, and everything was neat.  The doctor part of her was meticulous.  The Jedi part, not so much.  She absently patted her lightsaber, then moved to a mirror to check her hair.

Good thing is there is only one patient. Yet that's a bad thing as well to Ariadne. She wants to learn, needs to learn. But the clone trooper seems to be in good shape. The M1 droid follows the Jedi, helping her at times then goes back to its charging station. And the mirror makes her look bad, like a overworked student that needs a break. She stops for a moment as if sensing something and it goes away. Odd.

Now what was that, she wondered, checking the clone again, then moving on to make sure supplies were put where they should.  Yes, she had done that several times already, but it calmed her to do routine.  Her emotions calmed.  She remembered her teachers pointing out that her emotions got the better of her, and yet what was a medic but an empath?

She stopped again, feeling... something.  Was it the Force?  The air system?  Someone new?

She moved to the doorway, looking out into the halls.  She had been taught to answer those things that could not be answered.  And so she listened and closed her eyes, reaching.  She might indeed be an overworked student, but she was still a Jedi.

Strange. The Jedi doesn't feel anything. Perhaps she's not trying hard enough or not close enough. Perhaps she's blocked but she would probably know. And the light illuminated the hall go a bit darker then turn off. And the room she was in is on-probably a backup generator or perhaps the halls lights were somehow turned off.

Rgo) had been in the computer system running diagnostics when he noted some things happening in the area near the medical bay, finding nothing wrong in the circuits, he makes his way to the area to find the problem...

His scanner array is on the walls as he slowly rolls along the hall......looking for the service port...

Ariadne looked, then turned and walked slowly back into the subdued lighting in the MedBay, which in itself was odd.  She walked by her patient, making sure his equipment was still operable, then moved over to the main computer, keying it to run a check on power to the medical facility.  It was unusual for lights out in the hall, and while this seemed like an electrical failure, why now?  There were no storms.  No strange occurrences.

She closed her eyes again, looking 'beyond,' hoping to sense something.  It bothered her.  She went and got her portable medkit and moved to the hallway again.

Finding the correct access panel he uses a tool from his kit in his servopincer hand to open it, so he can uncover the issue.

He makes some happy R2 type noises as the panel is freed...

The Medical occupant paused.  Was that a droid?  There was no other droid here other than her medical droid.  She pulled out her light sabre and went back to the hallway door.

She looked down the hall and blinked.  "Oh... where did you come from?"  She walked into the hallway, still carrying her weapon, looking down at the droid as she approached.  "Hello little fellow.  Where did yoiu come from?  Are you checking on these stupid lights?  They just went out and I don't know why.  Backups came on in the medbay, and that indicates a power failure, but why?  Can you find out?"

She knew she spent too much time talking to her medical droid, and it carried over to this one.  She didn't know if they understood, but she liked treating them as people.  As they tended the be the only people who were awake and not screaming around her.

Diogostics: Check
Service Assistance: Check

Checking....
Checking.....
Checking......

Power Failure. Reboot and connect.

Reboot.....
Reboot......
Reboot.......

System overall maintain for current issue.

Of course this is to the droid as the binary tells him what is wrong. The Jedi waits for the process, as the droid beeps here and there as its connected to the wall servo.

OOC
Make a Computer Use Check as well as a Repair, Rg.

Rgo beeps excitedly as the computer interface probe shifts and twists as the droid taps into the mainframe of the systems....

Today: Rgo0 Argonaught rolled 23 using 1d20+14.  computer use

He delves swiftly into the source code looking for any malware....

Finding something out of sorts he attempts to start the repair process...

Rgo0 Argonaught rolled 14 using 1d20+11.  repair.

Rgo beeps several times as the problem seems larger than just a blip......

He continues to work on the system and trying to sort it out without shutting everything down.....

After a few minutes, the droid is able to find the problem and fix it but not sure what caused the problem, just some electrical surges and stops. Its strange but not unheard of but in the Jedi Temple? It pulls out the servo from the mantienance hatch and beeps a few times. The area lights up once more.

Ariadne smiled.  "Well, thank you Mr. Droid.  I guessing just a little problem?  I appreciate it.  Its nice to have someone around who knows how to fix things." She turned to go back in the Medical Bay.  "The lights went out here too, but the backups kicked in.  Fortunately, I only have one patient so far.  Hopefully, I can reduce that by one very soon.  When he gets better."

She walked over to set her medical bag down.  "Don't mind me.  I talk to paint when I get alone.  Bad habit.  My Master tells me I should spend less time talking to nothing and more time focusing on the Force.  Oh well, habits die hard sometimes."

She looked over her shoulder.  "Come on in if you want.  Just me and my patient here.  I could use the company."

Rgo0 realizes that the person was talking to him and swiftly sends a signal to his vocabulator,

A series of three red lines move in time with his voice as he replies....
"You are welcome mistress jedi, I am argonaught (Rgo0)."

He sets to securing the service panel back into place ....

R2 rolls into the medical bay....
"What is company?"

Ariadne laughed.  "A talking R unit!  I love it!  Thank you for joining me, Argonaught.  Having company means that more than one person or being, who is conscious, are in the same area sharing information or simply enjoying not being alone.  While machines and some species may not find being alone a hardship, Humans like having others around, whether in a professional capacity or as friends."

She looks at the droid.  "Could you please see if the power in here is normal or running on backup?  It is unusual for such an occurrence. I know of no storms or spacial events that would have shut down power so suddenly."

"I see.....Your humanoid repair shop is very nice."

Rgo rolls up to the computer access port to plug in and check the systems within this area as well...
Today: Rgo0 Argonaught rolled 26 using 1d20+14.  computer use.

He plugs in and turns his eye towards the woman...also looking around the room in general
"All R2 units talk, mostly in binary, a vocabulator assists with non-droid conversation."

"The medical repair database is uncompromised"

It seems it was just a power outage. Nothing odd. Really. Nothing. The astromech searches for the cause of it but doesn't find anything or the location. Interesting. Maybe it was just a random power outage. The entire temple runs on it, bound to happen. From what the droid can tell its the only area with the problem and it looks solved. Least for now.

She nodded, then turned to the droid, just in case he didn't recognize the action.  "Having you speak is very useful.  And thank you.  It is nice to know I was worrying for nothing.  I appreciate your efforts."

She went back to checking her supplies... again... and they were still there... again.  Then, she found a cold drink and sat in her chair at her console with a sigh.  She was clearly bored.  And not even the Force was helping her get over it.  She looked at the chronograph and sighed again.

Rgo disconnects from the terminal....
"A vocaulator is a useful device. "Query: there is no medical droid?
This message was last edited by the GM at 07:16, Wed 17 Jan.

Ariadne looked around, then got up from the terminal and walked around the medical bay, frowning.  Finally, she stopped in front of Rgo.

"Well, I usually have one.  Maybe he went to recharge or update or something.  There are a couple, they come when I need them."
This message was last edited by the player at 16:41, Wed 17 Jan.

"When do you recharge and update?"

The three red lines of his vocabulator do a pretty good job of matching his words as he speaks...

Rgo considers the area noting the patient he asks
"How goes the repairs?"

Ariadne wandered back to her console.  "After a night's sleep, he'll hopefully be good as new.  Or at least ready to lay about somewhere else.  Sleeping and resting are the best 'recharge' for humans, and most species.  That is when the most natural 'repair' happens.  I can only do so much repair, the rest is up to the individual and their body."

She sighed and opened her datapad to a reader, and started again on reading her book.  The surprises had interupted that.  And as it stood, everything was stored, no medical emergencies loomed and she could relax for a bit.

Rgo0 rolls over to the bacta tank...
"I saw this in the medical database, a bacta tank, I did not scan further in to see when such a tank would be used for healing....Query is it preventative like being dipped in a rust inhibitor?"

Ariadne's face lit up with the joy of comprehension.  "Yes, exactly!  Preventative care is often giving living beings, flesh and blood anyway, certain medications or changes in diet to prevent illness.  Just as having an anti-rust solution applied to your outside to prevent premature or early signs of rust.  Or as in preventative care, it keeps it at bay until such time as it can be reapplied."

She shook her head.  "I never thought of such things as being parallels.  Thank you, RGoO.  My Master is right, the Force works in patterns we don't always see.  Sometime, you and I might want to talk at length.  I imagine there is much we could teach each other."

Rgo0 beeps excitedly....
"There are many databases full of things that I do not know.  Most of my capacities deal with starship operations, astrogate, piloting, repair, computer usages and problem solving."

"I believe leaps to parallels is the thing termed intuition, I do not understand organics programming."
This message was last edited by the GM at 14:43, Sat 20 Jan.

She laughed.  "Yes, intuition.  It is when the human brain ties together unlinked ideas, sort of, instead of a to b, it becomes a to r, and then an idea occurs.  In your case, it is when you are doing a calculation, but then you deviate into a different calculation, and suddenly then become a single idea.  Two points, not alike, but then they join and a new idea occurs."  She thought a moment.  "It is like a mathmatical puzzle, that when viewed from a distance, rather than close up, suddenly causes a reaction to make a jump to a new resolution."

She had no idea if this made sense.  Could a machine have intuition?  She thought that a highly programmed one could.  She sat, looking at the droid, excited by the idea.

"Eventual linear convergence of near parallel programs, perhaps but only if both were followed from the outset at the same time."

The droid beeps a little considering initiating two program pathways at the same time.....

The clone lies upon the bed and twitches a few times, its mouth opens a few times as the Jedi and droid talk. Its hands clench the bed and the eyes opeon slightly. The medical droid slides in, checking the patient.

"Medical analysis. Check. Functional patient has awoken. Blood pressure is low but stable. Heart is intact and functioning per peramiters. Do you need further assistance?"

Tilting his head, the clone opens his mouth and closes it.

The medical droid leaves the room and shortly afterwards comes in with water. It pulls out a odd straw and enters it into the clones mouth. And the clone seems to relax but his hand twitch a few times. The MD checks his various wounds carefully, and turns towards the Jedi "He has awoken but in need of inabilitated what you believe is rest. Vital sighs are positive." It looks down at the astromech "MD-20531. Are you in need of oil cleanse and what is known as a partial limb and torso establishment of proper disagonistics and what is call a bath? I am fully programmed to do the mantience if required."

Yup. Damn medical droid.

R2 beeps quietly a bit as things seem to be happening with the patient....

The conversation interrupted by the organic coming online, no longer alseep.

He has no answer to the medical droid in terms of the further care of the patient

Ariadne walked over, examining the patient.  "You're awake.  How are you feeling? In pain?"  She made note of what the droid said on her datapad, waiting to hear what the clone might say.  "I'm your doctor.  You were brought in here for rest and medical assistance.  Do you have a name?  Do you know where you are?"

As much as the clone wants to talk, all that comes out are just odd gibberish. His eyes narrow and finally he speaks "C-141A. Temple." And he passes out. Seems like he needs rest and recovery and the clones either die in battle, are fine or get brought in and require little aid. But in this case, seems like he has internal issues being taken care of.

R2 runs the line of code the man had spoken through his translator unit, hoping something sensible would come out...

Today: Rgo0 Argonaught rolled 10 using 1d20 ((10)).

"Do you know what he said?"
This message was last edited by the GM at 00:44, Sat 17 Feb.

Ariadne frowned.  "I am sure he said 'C-141A, Temple.  I wonder if he was referring to the Jedi Temple,which is where we are."

Still frowning, she went to her terminal and entered the information as a search.  She then did the same, but switched it, with Temple first.  Then, she entered it but made the first word 'Jedi Temple.'  If no answer comes, she will continue a general search.

Ariadne rolled 11 using 1d20+6.  Computer Use.

"Affirmative, query initiated..." The droid beeps and checks something.

R2 quickly searches his own memory for the number designation....
This message was last edited by the GM at 18:31, Fri 23 Feb.

"Possibly it is his name and the location of the Temple." The medical droid speaks up and looks at the Jedi "I can continue watching over him if you wish. It is my job." The droid looks down at the astromech but doesn't say a word. Interesting. The computer doesn't find anything.

"Probability confirmed it is the unit's designation."

R2 notes that the medical droid did not address him, but it is not unusual as many tend to default to speaking when spoken to.

Ariadne slapped a hand against her forehead.  "Duh.  Unit designation.  It is probably on the medical record I didn't check.  And yes, please keep an eye on him.  He needs more rest."

She went back to her computer to see if there was any record of the clone's arrival, assignments or anything else.

Ariadne rolled 26 using 1d20+6.  Computer Use.

Rgo0 waits to see if he is needed for any further things, he has noted that organics often fail to end interactions and speak to each other after the other one has already gone.  He pauses, counting down approximately 55 seconds the delay he has seen when organics are involved in processing functions.....

Despite her best efforts, the Jedi doesn't seem to find much about the Clone trooper. All she find is his arrival which was about three days ago, and that he was hit with shrapnel when his ship went down. Out of six clones on it, he was the only survivor. It doesn't state where he was or what the mission was.

R2 rolls out of the medical bay heading onto his routine of maintaining different systems around the temple....


He beeps quietly as he rolls out of the medical area and returns to the hallway

Ariadne sighed, looking at her computer.  This was supposed to be her duty, but what else was there to do?  Clearly, there was a reason for the clone being here, and clearly there was a reason for the power issues.  But if none of her masters were going to relieve her here, then she would go find them.

She walked over to the medical droid.  "Notify me if he awakens again.  I'm going to go find out what is happening around here."  So saying, she walked out and headed towards the training area.

It watches the woman and goes back to work monitoring the trooper. It seems a bit odd with no other patients but at least people aren't getting hurt.

The jedi sees the astromech moving along at a decent pace. There's no one else in the hallway. No doctors. No droids. Nothing. A few closed doors pass by-all medical containment areas mainly doctor offices and a waiting area.
