Maybelle walked into sickbay nervously looking around. Her sleeve was pulled down over her arm as she scanned the room looking for one person in particular. Not seeing her directly, she moved to the nurse’s station and put on her best smile. “Maybelle Spunkler,” Ravonne Washington greeted the tweleve-year-old preteen with a knowing grin. Life was always more interesting when the kid showed up. It was never simple but always more interesting. At least this time Maybelle was not coming in with a broken limb, ice pack on her head, or body part wrapped into a rag that was covered in blood. “What can I do you for today?” Nurse Washington picked up the candy bowl and extended it towards the young kid.

“Oh nothing,” Maybelle fished through the bowl with a finger as if searching for the exact piece of chocolate she wanted. Seeing a bright orange wrapper at the bottom of the bowl she fished out a Reece cup and then a second. Holding up the second she looked at Washington waiting for her to say two were okay.

“Take three…if you tell me why you are here?” Nurse Washington assumed whatever it was the brought Maybelle here was not too bad; however one could never tell.

“That is a doctor-patient privilege,” Maybelle said in a serious tone popping one of the candies in her mouth. The comment brought a half chuckle out of Washington. Maybelle at times was smarter than most gave her credit but she was still a kid and all kids were intrinsically dumb saying things they did not always understand.

“True but Dr. Shan is away on leave so that means you get to break in a new doc. Go easy on her. She is a civilian but so nice. You are going to like her. Her name is Dr. Evrilla. Bed three,” Washington motioned to the left with a stylus.

“Cool,” Maybelle said turning before facing Washington again and fishing out a fourth Reece cup. “Since Dr. Shan isn’t here to give out a lollipop I will just take this for a snack’um.” Leaving the nurses desk with a pocket full of chocolate and peanut butter, Maybell found the indicated bed. Not being able to use her right arm, it took a big of wiggling to get on top of it. Eventually, with enough squirming and rolling, Maybelle sat up and let her legs dangle over the edge waiting to meet the new doc.

It was clear to see that something was wrong with the ever plucky unofficial mascot of the Atlantis by the way she crawled up onto the bed. At times Sickbay would slap on a band aid and send kids on thier way but something struck Ravonne as odd. Bringing up Maybelle’s contact form she got a quizzical look on her face seeing the point of contact. “Well how did that happen,” she murmured half out loud reading the name. It was not that she doubted the competency of the name on the form but how the name got to the form. It would be a kin to a hippie knowing a bare knuckle brawler. The two rarely traveled in the same circle but somehow these two groups had crossed. Washington leaned back and decided she needed to get a cup of coffee before making the call. This playing out with the people involved was going to be far more interesting than her holo show McHottie - Stripper cop which was her normal viewing activity at this time of day. Moving across sickbay she stopped at the CMO’s door. “Dr. Evrilla you have a patient in Bed three. I am contacting her parents to come down as soon as I get some coffee.”

“Thank you Ravonne!” Evrilla called through her door. Parents… a young patient then. She turned to Tatyl, the eight-year-old coloring on her office floor. “Icecube, would you like to shadow me?” Tatyl nodded, even as she scrunched up her face at the nickname. The two left the office, Tatyl trailing behind her mother.

Evrilla smiled at the girl, offering her hand politely. “I’m Evrilla, and this is my daughter Tatyl. It’s nice to meet you.” Tatyl waved boisterously, practically bouncing over to the biobed.
