Yep, don't want him to get lonely! I think he's doing really well. He eats all his food and stuff. [She puts Maine near the other glow fish.]

We have a full ship now, isn't it great?

I'm glad to hear it. [Does he actually like visiting the other fish? It's hard to tell, but the others at least notice the new arrival.]

It's good to have room for everyone, certainly. [It's better now that they're not overcrowded, and he is glad to have all the officers' stations manned.] Two of the new transfers are your friends, yes?

[Who knows, with fish.]

Yeah! Well, Tenno is at least. I've talked to Ordis too, he's really nice. Tenno's gonna be good for security, he's got the right attitude.

Um. You should totally talk to Ordis though. He's a computer person that's been stuck in a human person's body and he's kind of having a rough time. I know that's not exactly your situation, but it'd probably be good for him to have more friends, right?

[Oh really? He nods.]

Not precisely, but I may be able to help regardless. Did Atroma do it to him? That seems extreme, even for them.

Yeah, they did that to him. He said before he came here, he was a space ship. Isn't that cool?

Yes, it is. [He sounds distracted and his brow creases. Really, Atroma? Embodying an AI is an adjustment period in and of itself. To immediately drop them into unfamiliar situations on top of it is...well, admittedly, it's the kind of drama the audience probably enjoys.]

I'll do my best to make him comfortable. I think I should be able to help more than the average captain.

I thought to too!

He. Uh. Gets really tense about stuff. Hopefully that will help.

[Actually, he'd taken the Lull augment several months ago precisely for this purpose. Not for Ordis specifically, but to calm down a passenger when aboard a ship. Claustrophobia and the narrowed corridors of their ship do not good bedfellows make.]

I'm not surprised by that. I'll do what I can.

How have you been, Wrath?

I've been okay! The armory is comfy and I have an easier time not going up and down the ladder to my room. I know Beverly's working hard on trying to fix my back so I'm really hopeful.

I've been helping Dr. Crusher where I can with that. If there's anything I can do in the meantime to help make you more comfortable, please do let me know. [He pauses, and his eyes get an almost mischievous light in them.] Though should you find it necessary to retire to your bed for any reason, I would of course be happy to assist you via levitation.

I really appreciate that. I... do you think you guys are actually going to be able to do it? [She wants to believe in Beverly, and she wants so badly for her back to get fixed. But she also doesn't want to set herself up for disappointment. It almost destroyed her once, and she's aware of that fact.]

Aw, that's really sweet, thanks. Tenno said he's going to take over all the armory duties that require lifting for the time being, so that's gonna be really helpful too.

I believe I can help in construction of the required equipment, but I'm far from a medical professional myself. She does seem very skilled, however. I believe we'll be able to find a way.

[One way or another.]

Ah, you could have asked me before now, you know.

She's a really good doctor. And it sounds like all she's missing is the equipment, so I'll be hopeful.

It's Tenno's job to do security stuff. It's not your job. [Duh.]

Yes, she is. Her experience alone is impressive, and top-notch medical training only helps that. [But more than that, Dr. Crusher is determined - a quality the Vision respects greatly.]

As captain, part of my job is to ensure the crew can accomplish their responsibilities, is it not?

Mmm. But if you're doing my job, you're not doing your job. Don't worry, sir, I've got it handled.

[His job is pretty easy, actually, since he's been keeping everything in good repair. But he nods anyway.]

Regardless, please don't be shy to ask if you require anything at all, Wrath. I'm glad to help where I can.

Well... and if I'm being selfish, I'd rather you were using the time to work on the equipment for Beverly instead of just like putting things on tall shelves for me.

[That gets a laugh.]

At this point it's largely design and material-gathering, as she hasn't yet chosen a location. Once we know the dimensions, I'll have a better idea what's appropriate for the space available.

I just have to be patient.

It was easier to be patient when I thought nothing was ever gonna get fixed for real.

I can imagine it was. Hope is a more powerful drug than despair.

Yeah. And I'm not supposed to do drugs any more.
