Who: Beverly Crusher
Broadcast: Fleetwide Video
Action: Blue Fish
When: Right After the Attack

[Beverly is onscreen, the Blue Fish's med bay, still intact, behind her. Her jaw is set with determination as she talks.]

Attention, Drift Fleet. This is Dr. Beverly Crusher of the USS... of the SS Blue Fish. I know some of you have taken significant damage to your ships, possibly to your sickbays, and that others do not have a medic on board. Fortunately, our sickbay survived the attack, so I am offering it as a central location to help the wounded while repairs are being made elsewhere. We have a small supply of blood on hand as well, should anyone need it. If any member of your crew is too severely injured to be moved, please let me know, and I will come to you. No payments will be necessary for any treatment.

Thank you for your time.

[She signs off with a grim smile.]

Oh no, no [Beverly takes Krista's free hand and gives it a quick, warming squeeze before letting it go again] that was the sweetest thing anyone here has said to me. I know some doctors can be intimidating so I am glad that you feel comfortable here. If I made you too anxious to come see me, then I wouldn't be doing my job.

Oh... W-Well, good. I'm, um, glad.

[she... laughs awkwardly, but at least she's laughing?]

I'm super-glad. I'm worried that more bad stuff is gonna happen, so... It's really nice to know we've got a good doctor around.

[Beverly nods seriously.] I'm hoping the fleet won't need my services too often, but it's hard to predict what's going to happen when we're at the mercy of an unknown audience.

In any case, if you ever need or want to come see me, my door is always open.

[ladiesss]

That's really sweet... Yay...

[she winces again, but it's at least through a smile.]

I'll try to not hit my head again, but you know. Likewise, if you need a sneaky teenager for anything, I, uh, got your back.

[She chuckles.] Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

[Opening up a nearby cabinet, she takes out some pain medication.] Before you go, take one of these. It'll help with the pain. If you need any more over the next couple of days just let me know. Over the next couple of days, keep icing the injury every few hours. Don't sleep for more than a couple of hours at a time. If your symptoms get worse, call me immediately. It would also make me feel better if someone on your ship would help keep an eye on you. Do you have someone over there you can trust?
