Who: Beverly Crusher and Wrath
Broadcast: yes, video
Action: Find Beverly and Wrath on the Blue Fish right now (Wrath on the Windrose later)
When: Current

Good afternoon, Fleet, I’m Dr. Crusher, of the Blue Fish, [She gestures a hand towards Wrath] this is Wrath, of the Windrose, and we have an important request of our fellow fleet members. Wrath needs to undergo complicated back surgery, involving the removal of cybernetic implants. I have the skills and done the research necessary in order to do this, but I do not have the facilities or all of the equipment that I need. If anyone with medical, engineering, or computer knowledge would be willing to help us construct a surgical suite, I would, of course, compensate you for your time and energy. Please send us any questions you may have and thank you!

[Wrath waves and grins. She's leaning on her familiar cane.] Hi everyone! Um! Like Dr. Crusher said, I really appreciate any help, it'd be great to be back up to full effectiveness and kicking ass! This is so great, I never thought this injury could get fixed so I'm really... just hopeful. So thank you everybody.

And uh. It'd probably also be good to have someone who can talk to the nanobots that regulate my bone growth and muscle fibers. Cuz my old doctor put a governor on the muscles so I wouldn't hurt myself, but once my back is fixed I should get retuned to full speed.

I'll definitely compensate anyone for help too!

[Responses can come from both Wrath and Dr. Crusher!]

I understand that. Should I ask what Compliance was or is that one of those things left best undiscussed?

[She shrugs.] Compliance comes and gets you when you've engaged in non-compliant, antisocial behavior.

And sometimes for other reasons. You go away, and when you come back, you're not the same. It's supposed to fix people. I don't think it does.

That's... no. That's not what you want from the people you work for. That's worse than anything the wardens did in the prison. [They took memories sometimes, but they never rewrote someone like that. Not permanently.]

Yeah, that's what Bifrons did, and I was a corporate merc after they disbanded the army. Because... I don't know. They basically ran the city.

Well, here's hoping your friends and partner come here then. [She doesn't think "here" is a very solid, stable place either, but she gets it being a step up at least.]

Thanks. Maybe I'll get lucky.

[She's glad to be making new friends but... she's so fucking lonely. It was hard enough starting over once, when she got kicked out of the army. Doing it again is harder than she thought it would be. Though she's working very hard to stay positive for morale purposes.]

I hope so. With the back too.

[It's been working out pretty well then. Kitty has been having some trouble with feeling like she belongs here and is connected to anything, but the Windrose has been a good start. It may not feel like home exactly, but it's comfortable.] I'll let you get to all your other helpers and admirers.

Okay! Thanks, Kitty.
