Who: Beverly Crusher, Wrath, The Vision, Jennifer Keller… and maybe you?
Broadcast: No
Action: Iskaulit, Surgical Suite
When: Today!
There’s a new room on the Iskaulit, though it’s not obvious where it is, if you don’t know about it already, as it is inconspicuously tucked away in one of the unused corridors of the ship. More importantly, it’s equipped with biometric security systems, so only a select few can enter without being accompanied by one of the room’s designers. Under Dr. Crusher and Captain Vision’s guidance, various engineers and doctors in the fleet have come together to build a surgical suite with one specific goal in mind: fixing Wrath’s back and removing the ports put there by Compliance. For over a year, Wrath and Beverly have been pursuing this goal and now it’s finally happening.
In the operating room itself, there are only three people, besides Wrath: Dr. Crusher, Dr. Keller, and the Vision, in case they run into any issues with Wrath’s cybernetic implants. However, for those who wish to watch the surgery, there is a small observation lounge looking down into the OR, where you are welcome to stay and watch. The two doctors and Vision are all covered head to toe in scrubs, masks, and gloves, while Wrath lies prone on the operating table, with cushions supporting her neck and hips, and her limbs securely strapped in to keep her safely in position. An IV delivers her pain meds and anesthesia. Gently, Beverly kneels in front of an already fading Wrath and places a respirator over her face. “All right, Wrath, ready? I’m going to count backwards from ten. 10, 9, 8…”
Hours later, Beverly has successfully removed the shattered ports, working from her experience with Borg implants. It’s delicate, tedious work, but she never falters, her hands steady throughout. If there was any doubt as to her surgical skills before, there can be none now. Afterwards, Wrath is back in traction in the recovery room. She may still be a little drowsy, but no doubt she will welcome visitors.
((ooc: this is a catch-all post for anything relating to Wrath's surgery, especially post-op, for anyone who is involved either as a friend or as another healer))

shortly after she can walk
When he ducks into the room this time, it's with a tray of some fresh food he'd acquired on the planet - bread, nut butter, fresh fruit, and what looks like a trail mix with seeds and candies mixed with nuts and cracker bits.]
Good afternoon, Wrath. How do you feel?
no subject
[Oooh, food. She's always hungry right now.]
no subject
[He hands over the food and sits back with a smile.]
A beach, an ocean, and a very impressive forest. I've been having very good luck getting new herb seedlings for the garden, and even their currency is acorns. I've traded some of the chemicals we brought from the toxic moon to merchants here and received a good price, so you've a certain allowance as you won't be able to work much just yet.
no subject
More stuff for the garden is good. And... wow, thanks for the money? I'll try to find some kind of work though, still. I wonder if I can sell paintings. People like that kind of stuff sometimes.
no subject
[He nods, smiling.] The community seems to appreciate art, and canvas is easy enough to come by. And I've seen a number of paintings on wooden planks with a kind of egg-based paint - are you familiar with tempera?
no subject
I'm not, but if it's a new thing, I want to try it out.
no subject
Rather than new it's a very old technique, dating back hundreds of years from my time on Earth. As it uses no synthetic materials, it's a natural fit for a place like this.
no subject
Oh, that sounds really interesting. I'll definitely have to give it a try then. Learn the local stuff!
no subject
[He nods, having seen a couple examples himself when browsing around.] There's an entire district committed to artistic pursuits. I'm certain you'll like it.
no subject
Oh... I can't wait to see that. Whenever Beverly lets me out on my own.
no subject
It should be soon enough. I realize it's difficult to wait any longer, but you can already feel the difference, can't you?
no subject
no subject
Then I hope that is what becomes normal for you.
no subject
no subject
I'm glad. If anything should change, you'll let Dr. Crusher know with all haste?
no subject
no subject
Very good. I'll leave you to your practice, then.
