Re: Urm.. Dr. keto... Part One

Who: Keto, Tara
Where: Makeshift Medibay
When: A few hours after Tara ran into Keto
======================

- A Few Hours Later -
The doors to the makeshift medibay that Keto had set up in one of
the deserted storerooms swished open, and Tara walked out. She was
staring straight ahead, blinking, and it was fairly obvious that
whatever was going on inside her head was not involving the fairly
simple process of walking, or being aware of the world around her in
any way.
Behind her, Keto stepped out, a faint smirk on his face.
"Are you...sure?" asked Tara, leaning against the wall.
"Positively, absolutely and without a doubt," said Keto
cheerfully, "I may not have my medibay, but a diagnosis like that
isn't something that could easily be mistaken."
"I...see..." murmured Tara, and straightened up, beginning to walk
off. Behind her, Keto cleared his throat.
"Miss Cleavage," he said, "With the destruction of my medibay, I
need a little...extra staffing. You will be working double-shifts
for the next couple of weeks, until everything is back to normal."
Tara turned, her current worries suddenly appearing to be put on
hold with this news.
"WHAT?" she said incredulously, "Keto, there's no way that I'm
going to be doing double sh..."
"Holly," said Keto suddenly, cutting across Tara's voice. As the
nurse fell silent, Holly's face appeared on a nearby monitor.
"Yes, Doc?"
"Take a memo, would you," asked Keto, turning to smile coldly at
Tara, "For the attention of the crew: it has recently come to my
attention that Miss Cleavage has a certain condition. This..."
"What are you DOING?" hissed Tara, hurrying towards Keto. The
doctor smiled.
"Be an awful shame," he said quietly, "If news of this were to get
out. Might make things a little awkward for a while, hmm? A
little...troublesome? Almost definitely a lot more trouble than you
could afford in your condition at the moment."
There was a pause.
"You can't do this!" protested Tara, not sounding very hopeful.
Keto smiled.
"A certain condition," he continued, raising his voice
again, "Which is..."
"OKAY!" said Tara suddenly, "Okay, I'll do double shifts!"
"Cancel that memo, Holly," said Keto, and turned back to face Tara.
"I know you will," he said, "I know you will."
