I'm... sorry to have to deliver news like this just after New Years, but. I don't think ignoring it for the sake of a holiday would be the right thing to do.

McCoy's gone.

[it takes him a few seconds to continue]

I went to visit him after I got out of the medbay - same temple and all that - and it turns out he... left a video and some personal effects.

[isaac fiddles with something offscreen]

If anyone wants to see the video he left in full, I'll send it to your device. He did leave a few things to people, too.

Kids, you were left with a warning to take care of yourself lest he haunt you and give you a lecture on safety. You guys also get first pick of the food and clothing.

Red Alert, the good doctor left you his medical equipment. I can bring it over to the medbay sometime in the near future.

[there's a sigh] I'm sorry.

( ooc: flow wrote a brief summary of what he left for me and the ending of the video; "He smiles at the end of the video, winks, and says, "Good luck without me. You're gonna need it." ;_;)

The talking horse, yeah.

[um!!!]

[deadlydoctor]

I think the right term is ‘pony’. In your earth, animals talk too?

[cec_engineer]

'Pony' is a little bit more informal, but if that's what she'd like to be called then why not.

They don't tend to, no. Unless there's been more experimentation I'm not aware of.

[deadlydoctor]

Informality isn't always bad.

Does that happen often in your world? The experimentation.

[cec_engineer]

I'd rather not offend her.

[oh man don't get him started on that.]

In short, yes. No, I don't really want to tell you about it. Context, yeah?

[deadlydoctor]

A wise decision. As far as I know, the ladies are always more vicious.

[Don't be shy Issac.]

Maybe another time then.

[cec_engineer]

Uh huh.

[NO.]

Sure. Why wouldn't I tell you all about the traumatizing horrors of my own universe?

[deadlydoctor]

What, you are familiar with them?

[Spoilsport.]

Because I've seen some of my own? Horrors are not something unique from your universe.

[cec_engineer]

You could say that. Several attempted murders later.

[deal w/ it.]

For me, I mean. I'm sure you've seen some fucked up shit too, but it's not something I want to relive. Even if it is just through stories.

[deadlydoctor]

Sounds like them, yes.

[Metaphoriclaly kicks you in the aft >/]

That's more understandable.

[cec_engineer]

I'm glad we see eye to ... optic.

[deadlydoctor]

Me too. Now I won't bother you further. I might come visit you in a few days to chat.

[And check that all's still in place in your body, but he doesn't want to sound like he cares or anything.]
