OOC: Transferring thread

"Hello Ms. MacKenzie, we need to rig up glasses to block whatever aura light we are producing for Ms. Seward to function without pain. I am hoping we have an engineer soon to actually fabricate the device." Alex informed Taylor.

Turning to Nurse Lockhart, "Let's quickly scan Cat, myself and you to compare them to them to our baseline to see if the time jumps had any effect on our bodies."

In reply to Alex Dupont (msg # 13):

Scan results:

In reply to Your Loving GM (msg # 14):

"Doctor, we have a problem," Lockhart said to Alex as she pulled him to the side, giving him little choice in her demand for privacy.

Alex does a double take.

In reply to Alex Dupont (msg # 16):

The results of Alex's scan...

Alex calmly walks to his desk and very rapidly begins typing something out.

In reply to Alex Dupont (msg # 18):

A response arrives a few minutes later, depending on Alex's level of involvement with Maria...

Alex turns to Maria, "Ms. Seward, I need to step away for a few minutes, Ms. MacKenzie and Lt. Kusaragi are going to work on solving your sight problem while I'm out." To the competent team, "I will be in my quarters across the hall if you need me."

Alex leaves MedBay.

Alex has returned to the Medbay... After having a rather interesting dialog with Cat, and then Commander Geary...



After finishing up with Cat, Alex will check in on the progress with Ms. Seward.

In reply to Alex Dupont (msg # 21):

When Alex returned and was able to speak, Naoko approached him.  "Doctor, I think we have something working," she said, nodding her head in Maria's way, who said on a medical bed with what might have been reminiscent of old earth phoroptor machine around her head.  "Taylor figured out that our chroniton interactions radiate an energy frequency that excites her optical nerve.  We came up with the right filters, but Ms. Seward can't go around wearing that thing, so I'm going to the Engineering lab to construct something more suitable."

Alex nods approvingly, "Excellent work Ms. Kusaragi!"

(Gets a com badge transmission)


A moment later. "Nurse Lockhart, can you respond to Cat's quarters and monitor her please."

(Gets more information)

Alex reviews the information and responds

In reply to Alex Dupont (msg # 23):

"Right away, Doctor Dupont," Lockhart said and made her way to Cat's quarters.

"I'll get to the fabrication lab and make a version that Ms. Seward comfortably wear right away!" Naoko said and left.

Alex nods as Nurse Lockhart responds.

"Excellent." To Naoko.

With a concerned frown, "Acknowledged and on my way." As he quickly grabs his response bag. Looks at Ms. Taylor, "Be back shortly," and leaves Medbay.

GM Edit: This takes place during the 1-hour window after the critter crisis is resolved.

Kate soon arrives in medbay carrying a pleasantly plump and fluffy cat in her arms and makes her way toward Maria's medbed.  Taking a seat on the edge and gently placing Bastet on the bed, who takes a moment to look around and sniff the bed with distaste before nuzzling Maria's side. "How are you feeling my love?  Things are finally settling down I think, I'm sorry I got so distracted with all the work we had to do responding to this crisis." she leans forward to try to gently kiss her wife on the lips and lead Maria's hand to Bastet.

In reply to Katherine Seward (msg # 26):

"It's alright, we're in Starfleet after all," Maria said with a sigh as she leaned against her love.  Even with her eyes closed, she had sensed Kate approaching, a kind of gravity on her heart that only Kate could manage.  Reaching down, she began to stroke Bastet's soft fur.  "I'm doing well.  They ran some tests, learned that... well, I'm just repeating what they said, I don't pretend to understand it.  Something about tachyon and chroniton interactions exciting my optic nerves.  Lt. Kusaragi is making some sort of visor for me to wear that'll filter it out of my vision."

Kate smiles and strokes Maria's arm lovingly. "Well, I hope that you don't have to wear the visor long, I love the way your eyes shine in the morning." She said happily as she relaxes with Maria. "They'll be going over to the ship soon to try to close the rift, and hopefully put an end to this nightmare once and for all.  Then I can take you back to our quarters and spoil you until you fully recover."

In reply to Katherine Seward (msg # 28):

Reaching for Kate's hand, Maria took it into her own and squeezed it.  "I think I need to go with them.  If what they're saying is true, that I can keep people from time jumping and whatever, they'll need me to protect them when they try to close it."

Kate gives a playful pout at Maria. "Do you really have to? we generated a field here to simulate what your body does naturally...couldn't they just rig up some kind of generator to go with them?" Kate asks hopefully, knowing that it'd probably take to long.  she gave Bastet the ear scritches as they talked and smiles at the image.

In reply to Katherine Seward (msg # 30):

Maria shakes her head.  "After talking to you, I heard Ms. MacKenzie talking Lt. Cmdr sh'Elliaph.  They still don't know how I do it, so they... dispersed anti thingies to hide the ship.  You'd have to speak to one of them about it."

Kate nods, "Yeah, I just don't see why they can't do the same for the B'Rel.  I would much rather you be here with me, then going anywheres near this rift." she smiled just relaxing in Maria's present for now.

In reply to Katherine Seward (msg # 32):

"You would have to ask one of the others," Maria sighed. "I would rather stay too, but if it's necessary to protect you and those we love, I will gladly brave any danger."

Naoko entered MedBay with something in her hands.  "I'm back, Ms. Seward," she said, indicating Maria  "Let's try this."  She approached and held up what appeared to be a visor and began fitting it onto Maria before flipping a switch.  "How's that?"

A moment later, Maria looked around.  She was quite the sight, but she smiled as she looked at Naoko. "I can see you..."

Immediately she looked at Kate, but her smile faltered.  "I see you too, but not your aura."

Kate smiles at Maria. "Well, I'm sure it's still there, we just have to wait for my Tachyon radiation to decay back to normal levels." She glanced at Naoko with a curious look in her eyes. "How long will that be anyways LT. Kusaragi?"

In reply to Katherine Seward (msg # 34):

"Oh, gosh, I'm not sure," Naoko said, unprepared for Kate's question.  "That's probably more a Science question?  Dosage.  Mass.  Time of exposure.  I imagine it'll be different from everyone and what do you mean normal levels?"  She paused a moment as she caught what Maria had just said.  "Aura?"

Kate smiles "When Maria looks at people she sees some form of aura around them."

In reply to Katherine Seward (msg # 36):

"Some more than others," Maria said.    "I've never understood it, but Kate's was especially warm and appealing, one of the many things that drew me to her."

"Oh..." Naoko said.  At first her tone suggested she didn't entirely believe Kate, but then she thought things through.  "So now it's brighter.  Got it.  Well, I think you're all set Maria.  I imagine Cmdr Geary needs to speak to you to explain what the plan is."
