[Rose doesn't look so good. Her skin seems paler than normal and when she speaks her voice is horse from coughing so much.]

With McCoy gone I really hope there is a medic who knows enough about organic medicine to treat something like this.

[Considering she's been avoiding seeing a medic for a basic medical exam, her asking to see one is a big deal.

[She cuts the feed just as she's about to go into another coughing fit.]

I watched a few episodes of Dr. Quinn, does that work?

You don't look so good. [You helped him in the past so he's slightly worried.]

[originaldragoon]

I don't know who Dr. Quinn is, so I wouldn't know.

I don't feel so good either. My whole body is sore, I'm cold, and I can't stop coughing.

[deadlydoctor]

It's an organic doctor woman that...you know, nevermind.

At least it's not cosmic rust. Do you feel Metal fatig...fatigue?

[originaldragoon]

[She's not going to ask what this Dr. Quinn did.]

I am tired.

[deadlydoctor]

[Really awesome things, mind you.]

Did you get into a fight recently? Eat something strange? Not recharge enough?

[happyduckbutt]

What happened? Are you okay, Rose?

[originaldragoon]

I woke up ill with some kind of flu this morning, Ventus. I'll be fine once I get someone who knows how to treat it.

[happyduckbutt]

[Not that he knows what that is, but getting sick isn't anything good, that much is for sure.]

Have you heard from anyone..? I'd offer to try helping, but I don't think Cura works for things like that...

[originaldragoon]

Knock Out offered some help so I have heading to the Medbay.

[happyduckbutt]

Oh! [He nods.] That's good- I hope he can help make you feel better.

[0perator]

I have reference material and common sense. I can try and figure out what's wrong with you.

[And yes she looks as dubious about this enterprise as all this sounds.]

[originaldragoon]

I what is wrong with me. It is some kind of flu or cold. I just need someone who can treat it.

[She didn't mean to sound annoyed, but she can't seem to help herself when she's sick.]

[0perator]

Well, viruses are only symptomatic treatment...

[She trails off, mentally cataloging her last poke about the junk heap.]

I might have picked up at least some aspirin. I'll bring it by?

oops meant to put "I know" there. >_<

[originaldragoon]

What is "aspirin" and what does it do? [Say hello to someone from a medieval fantasy world who has limited knowledge to modern medicine and tech.]

I am already on my way to the medbay.

[0perator]

I can divert there.

It's a drug humans use.. let's see.. pain reliever and fever reducer. So your temperature moderation will work again and you'll ache less. It'll be a start.

[raceme]

Rose? Do you need help? I could take you to the medbay.

[originaldragoon]

... That maybe for the best. I am still shaky riding that motorcycle when I am healthy. I do not know what would happen if I start coughing while using it.

action~ C:?

[raceme]

Let's not discover that, I will come to pick you up, don't move from your room.

[He will be there in a moment, knocking at the door.]

action!

[originaldragoon]

[Rose answers with a blanket wrapped around her shoulders and Charmer circling around her. In person, she looks really sick.]

action!

[raceme]

[Oh you, poor thing.]

Sorry to make you open the door. [Blurr kneels so he can carefully put an arm around Rose and pick her up, blanket and all. Then he smiles reassuringly at Charmer.]

We are going to ^{bring your mommy to the medbay, I think that firelizards are allowed there.}

[mccrane]

Rose...

I am sorry to hear that you aren't well. [He doesn't like the idea of there not being human doctors...]

There might be some reference books in Alpha Trion's library?

[originaldragoon]

Don't be sorry about this. It is not your fault that I am sick.

I suppose it goes without saying that I will not be doing any police work until I get over this.

[mccrane]

You do enough for us when you are well. You deserve the time off.

Even if the circumstances could be better.

Are there truly no organic medics left?

[This concerns him. The police can protect people physically, but they can't fight a virus.]

[originaldragoon]

As far as I know, the only organic medic was McCoy, and he is gone now.

[mccrane]

Then we have a problem.

It may be in our best interest to poll the Haven--just as you are doing--and find out if there is anyone with any medical experience at all.

I did not realize we were so unprepared...
