<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

I never claimed to be any sort of professional miss, just a doctor.
*Opens the drawers in the equipment table one by one and rummages through their contents*
Why don't you lie down and make yourself comfortable?

<Snipped quote by Session>

*You find an assortment of may of the basic tools you’d expect to find for surgery and other various procedures, and nothing out of the ordinary other than a number of empty glass vials*
Fine
*Exhales deeply and hops up onto the raised bedding*
But anything beyond surface level work, I want you to run by me before you try.

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

*Steps back over to the medical table without bringing any of the equipment*
Of course. Now I really need you to try and relax, okay? Also pull your shirt up enough for me to check your abdomen, and don't make it weird.
*Looms over you and tries to rub my hands together, realizes the friction causes them to stick, and then tugs at the wrists to pull out the newly-formed wrinkles*

<Snipped quote by Session>

*Rolls my eyes, and grabs my shirt to roll it up to the bottom of my ribcage*
That last bit would have been fine left out, “doc”.

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

You never know with patients, right?
*Rolls my arm to pop my shoulders and lifts up a hand*
Let's get this party started.
*Swings my fist in a clean arc, delivering an overhead punch directly down into your abdomen, but despite its speed, the strike causes no pain or damage, and instead ejects flittering point particles of countless dark, muted colors like static in the general shape of your body directly above you*

<Snipped quote by Session>

Wa-
*Sits up slightly and looks up above me at the spectacle in wonder, immediately calmed from a sudden panic*
Woah…

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

That, my newly met friend, is your collection of energies. Put together, it's what you might call a life force. It's also why I need you to stay calm.
*Knocks at different points of your body and limbs which seem to shuffle and shift the points, gradually layering them by color one on top of another*

<Snipped quote by Session>

I’ll try, but… I’m sorry.
*Lays back down but is still clearly trying my best to watch everything you’re doing with my head rested against the bed*
It was so easy to be skeptical, but I suppose that I should never have expected anything conventional…

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

Don't be, it's all par for the course in this profession. Any chance they give you names here?
*Slams a closed fist down onto your arm, again causing no discomfort, but causing a layer of burnt orange dots to retreat into your body*

<Snipped quote by Session>

They do.
*Blinks and looks down from the spectacle to you for a moment and blinks, snapping out of a daze*
Oh, uh, mine is Rea. Doctor… Ah, screw it. Just Rea.

<Snipped quote by Multifarious>

Rea, I like that. Good name for a niece.
*Raps the back of my hand across your shoulder, reprojecting tiny bundles of multicolored static from the previous figure to a new, vertical shape of your body within your field of view, most of which are moving in a way that outlines your circulatory system*
These, Rea, are the life forces that live in you, but aren't you and don't help you. There aren't too many of them, and you can probably guess what they are.

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Is this design all by-the-catalogue, or is any of it custom?

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Functionally? Yeah it is by-the-catalogue but aspect-wise, custom... this is supposed to be a cutting edge Terran Dominion battle cruiser all decked with it's own finest miniature black hole gun... overkill if you ask me, but you never know. Warp drive fuelled by red matter, so that should be exhilarating! *Hands you a tablet that has all instructions in it, both how to operate the weapons and piloting it and maintenance instructions*

<Snipped quote by Session>

Is this projection something you’re doing entirely on your own or is it some sort of hidden part that we can’t normally see of ourselves?

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Forget third parties, we could end up blowing ourselves up with this thing.

<Snipped quote by Memory>

You seriously need therapy pal! This ship model has been used by top notch Terran Dominion officers for over 10 years now without as much of a drop of an incident... Anxiety man... seriously!

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

That all sounds great until we shoot a black hole into our path of travel.

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Well that is only if you are a trigger happy fellow... i don't see a need to do that unless our path crosses with a space titan...

<Snipped quote by The Odeoron>

Do you sense one nearby?

<Snipped quote by Memory>

Gaaahhhh! Hey let's take it one step at a time fellow! Don't scare me like that, i don't even wanna imagine how those things might look like here... first thing's first, take off... *Clicks a few buttons, scrolls and adjusts some settings on several holo-screens as the ship begins to gently hum and vibrate* Purring like a cat! hah! Don't forget your seatbelt then! *Grins like a kid on his birthday as we gently begin to hover upwards*
