Standing just outside the doors to Sickbay, Jessica took a deep breath. She had just arrived on the Atlantis, her first duty station following her medical training and then her training at Starfleet Academy. The last few years had been a drastic change to her previous life of helping to care for her older brothers, but strangely, being a doctor on a Starfleet ship didn’t feel that innately different. Her thoughts wandered to the vague memories she had of her mother, her sweet smell and soft voice filling Jessica’s senses. Her eyes watered slightly but, as quick as the memories flashed through her brain, they faded and she took another steadying breath. It was time to begin the next phase of her life. She plastered a grin onto her delicate features and stepped forward so that the sickbay doors would open.

Making her way through the facility, Jessica easily located the CMO’s office. She pushed the button to indicate her arrival and patiently waited, twirling her finger in a loose lock of blonde curls that had made its way down to frame her face. At 5‘2”, her slight build gave her a childlike appearance, emphasized by sparkling eyes and a bubbly personality beneath.

The door opened, unusually with someone standing behind it rather than the dramatic swoosh of automated control. The man stood in faded black jeans and a short sleeved black T-shirt with a red and yellow symbol across the chest. It seemed to be advertising some sort of theme park of a dinosaur variety. He polished a red apple on the dinosaurs head and looked down at the blond woman before him.

A heartbeat of silence as he leaned on his cane and took in her appearance. One eyebrow arched and he bit into the Apple. “Well…either Report in or get lost princess.” He said and chewed

It would be easy to be offended by the CMO’s demeanor, but a life full of testosterone had provided Jessica a backbone of steel and feelings not easily hurt. She was tempted to pretend not to recognize this out-of-uniform dynamo. She pondered that avenue of response and then decided to take a different approach…

“That’s Princess Lemann to you, sir, and I was just coming in to find out where my throne is located,” she easily responded, a saccharine smile upon her features. “Cute dinosaur.”

The corner of Ryley’s mouth twitched. “Oh aren’t you cute.” He said sarcasm colouring his tone but his eyes looked mischievous. He bit into the Apple again and chewed while he considered her. “As you say your highness…” he nodded his head in a follow me gesture and moved passed her into sickbay heading to the nearest biobed, leaning on his cane as he went. The Apple still crunching away. He reached the bed and lifting his cane pointed the bottom of it at her then at it. “There you go, Princess. Have a seat.”

He turned from her and patting his pockets seemed to realise he was missing something. “Forgot my tricorder.” He told her, “hang tight Princess i’ll be right back. Scouts honour.” He said limping back toward his office.
