When We're Rollin Through the Wild Wild West

Who: Everyone! EVERYONE!
Broadcast: IF YOU WANNA
Action: Everywhere! EVERYWHERE!
When: Mid-September - Mid-October

[How's your ship doing, pardners? Is it still pretty damaged? Is it glitching out hardcore? Well, there is one place to land to take care of all that, and that's on a dusty old moon in front of a planet that no one wants to go to. On this moon, you'll find a civilization that looks a lot like one's stepped into a wild west movie, hardened cowpolk and mutant horses and all. Will you become a vigilante, hunting bounties and stopping gangs from doing their dirty work? Will you go exploring planetside, with a cowboy hat and a stalk of wheat in your mouth to complete the look? Good luck with that; there is no wheat. This town ain't big enough for all you flooters, but make it so! For the ratings!

In other words, it's a planet mingle! Get 'er done!]

[Simon nodded.]

I think I needed to hear that. ... thank you. [He sighed.] Hardening myself would be impossible, I think- my desire to do right by people is too strong.

[Her mouth forms a grim line.]

Don't ever lose that desire, either. I've seen what happens when the science becomes more important than the people.

I have, too- and it's not pretty. It goes against all of the reasons I became a doctor, and it's always unsettled me when doctors choose to ignore the oath they took. Sometimes circumstances can give them no choice, to be fair... but others, they make the choice themselves.

I suppose we're lucky, that you and Dr. Keller and I have similar views on this.

I am glad for that. It would make it that much harder for us to work together if not- but I'm lucky to have such kind and skilled colleagues.
dancingmd: (smile)

wrap?

As am I.

[She gives him a rueful half-smile.]

Though if we were actually good doctors, we ought to be getting on to our next patient.
pompous_today: (hee)

Yup <3

This is very true- lead the way.
