With the slight rise of her eyebrows as the only giveaway to the bizarre strap configuration on the bed, she hopped up to sit on it. “I think that is wise. One never knows when power will fail or you need to get close enough to someone who is awake.” She sat and watched him fetch her file. As he read it he would learn she was truly a Betaziod with eye enhancements to make her pupils a different color so she could pass as human. Also that she had a few scars from combat and trainings, but nothing to be concerned about. Otherwise, she was in good health and nothing significant was in her file from her last checkup.
Theo wandered back, file in hand. He stood at the bedside and looked at Juliet a moment. “Please, excuse me a moment.” He said politely as he began to read.
“So the restraints make sense. But why the apron and gloves? Is your touch harmful in some way?” She asked absently as if asking how he got his hair color. Her security mind was taking notes in case it had to be recalled upon at a later date.

SecurityHe looked at her and smiled. “Purely aesthetic Ensign. A small vain indulgence.” He indicated the apron. “I find at mental preparedness often allows for one to work with more focus. When I put on the uniform I am an officer Of the fleet, when I put on the apron or a lab coat I am also a doctor.”
He removed the gloves and put them in the apron pocket, flexing the fingers slightly. “Is that better? I can remove it if it makes you feel uncomfortable at all.”
“No, it’s fine. Truly. Though I appreciate the offer for my comfort.” She smiled and nodded.
He pulled a tricorder out and opening it smiled again. “Now, shall we continue with your exam?” He asked
Dr Knox
Juliet nodded and let the Doc do his exam. There was nothing significant to her readings other than perhaps lower readings that would indicate she wasn’t eating or sleeping like she could. She hadn’t been doing well since the hearings and now, assigned to another ship, she was on edge worried about having to start all over again. Trying to break the silence that she knew was coming with the examination, she smiled once more. “I think the apron lends a bit of good severity to your look. I am guessing it may keep the lesser whiny babies from coming down here with every small imagined ailment for hear your ‘cure’ would be to hack off some offending limb.” She relaxed realizing this was a man she could eventually get to know. He seemed sincere in his work and also compassionate enough to offer her peace of mind in something as simple as removing an apron.

Theo smiled good naturedly and chuckled lightly as he worked. “It has been known to serve such a function yes.” He said with a glance at her.
The area between his eyebrows furrowed slightly as he read the tricorder readouts. “Tell me, are you nervous around sickbay normally?” He asked his tone one of.mild concern as if he wished for nothing more than to reassure her.
Dr Knox
“No,” she shook her head and sighed. “I guess if you’re reading it, it’s just settling in like everyone else. I didn’t exactly come here under normal circumstances. But I’m getting the feeling, no one here is exactly under ‘normal circumstances.’” She glanced around and nodded to the PaDD, “And I am sure you also will see, if not now, then when you go to make your official entries, I’m Betazoid. The eyes were surgically changed to hide it and no one except the Captain knows as of right now. Though I can’t say who he has told. My records read I am human and I guess Ops wants it that way, for now. I’m sure, in time, others will know and I give it less than a six month span before the whole ship knows.” She laughed lightly, shaking her head. “Best kept secrets and all that.”
Theo consjderedher as the voice inside pondered her words and their implications, interesting.
She shifted slightly as if uncomfortable, before settling once more. “I guess it’s been a rough few months. And I haven’t exactly been sleeping well, either. And I doubt my diet would have met your approval the last couple weeks. I’m assuming you asked because you’re reading something… off?”
Juliet
Sec/RTF”Not exactly, it indicates as you said that you may not have had enough sleep or a great diet recently but it was more you seemed uncomfortable, I therefore thought I would ask to see if I could put you more at ease.” he smiled.
Dr Knox
CMOJuliet nodded in understanding. “Sorry. More like new ship and new secrets I guess. It’s supposed to be just you and the CO who know about me. But it’ll soon be my supervisors, then whoever I work closest with, then the whole ship. Just seems ridiculous to bother trying to keep it a secret at all.”
She smiled softly. “And the tricorder is right. Bad sleep and bad food isn’t helping any.” She laughed slightly as she relaxed.

Theo gave a nodd as if he understood and adjusted something in the tricorder. “ Well, I’m fairly new around here too so, if that helps at all I guess I can understand where you are coming from.” he smiled again and then reached for a hypo spray. “Id like to give you something to help stabilise some if the levels in your body for now, it’s a temporary fix so you must then promises to get a good nights sleep and a decent dinner today.” he gave her a stern look and waited for her permission.
