Chandel frowned, they would have a hard time removing the child from sickbay now that she knew her father was coming. She looked for Dr. Ordaavi to see what her opinion on the matter was.

Counselor Chandel

Odraavi wasn’t far from the area, finishing up with a patient. “There you are, Bentan. Take it easy for the next few days, those were some nasty burns. If you have any pain, or develop new symptoms, either come to the Sickbay or comm us for an emergency.” She tried to keep the atmosphere lax despite the fiasco spinning around them. “You’re all set,” She gently tapped his shoulder, offering a soft smile.

Turning from the Bolian man, she gathered her tricorder and headed off to assist another patient. “Counselor?” Odraavi inquired, coming across her in her travels.

[OOC: I’m going to write out the flip side too, even though it is probably several minutes in the future, just to keep this moving. :)]

She hadn’t been aware of the beam up warning, but it didn’t take a scientist to know that a child in sickbay when her parent arrived wasn’t a good thing. “Well, now,” she glanced up at the Counselor, “I would say now that Bugsie is in perfect health, and the Doc is going to fix your daddy up, I bet they both deserve a treat while they recover. What is Bugsie’s favorite treat?” She looked back up at the Counselor as she continued to speak. “Maybe we can go to my place real quick and get your dad and bunny a real treat that will cheer them up from being hurt? What do you think of that? And we’ll even put fresh, clean ribbons in your hair.” The child could probably use a good bath as well, judging from tear streaks on her cheek and a rumpled outfit. But a treat and ribbons would suffice till she learned what else was going on.

She looked at the Doc as well and wondered if whatever she was being benched for would be lifted just long enough to see to the child.

Nisihe subtly rose her eyebrows in skepticism, uncertain if Teek was well enough to leave the Sickbay. Hesitating, she stood a bit away, watching the interaction between child and manager with a keen, unwavering gaze. Teek seemed to be managing well, and perhaps she could use the distraction as much as the child could. Although telepathic, Nisihe was no psychologist. Battling between keeping her benched or letting her go, Odraavi came to a decision. She was worried about Teek, but there was no use in keeping them both there, when others were in need of the space. It wasn’t logical.

“You can go,” Nisihe remarked, walking over. “But you better be keeping contact between you and I. If anything feels off or you hurt, call me.” Perhaps she was overreacting, but she cared about Teek and that meant she was going to be harder on her. “Go enjoy yourselves.” She smiled, though her eyes read Be careful with her, knowing better than to express verbal concern before Emma.

Teek smiled and nodded. “I promise, Doc.” She reached out to touch the woman’s arm as the look let her know about the child. A soft smile of understanding mirroring the Doctor’s concerns. “We won’t be long. Let me know when to bring her back.”

Emma nodded in excitement, as her small brain worked fast to come up with ideas that she could do for her dad. “Bugsie like’s carrots, but that’s because he’s a wabbit,” Emma said, “But he also likes white chocolate,” she looked up through her eyes, in a manner that clearly hinted that it was probably Emma that liked the overly sweet version of chocolate than Bugsie. “Daddy like cheesecakes, we could make him a cheesecake with sprinkles and a card. He’d like a card. Do you have glitter? To make it extra extra sparkly to cheer him up,” she spoke quickly. She wasn’t allowed glitter at her home, her mummy said it was too messy, but these people don’t know that. Besides her Daddy isn’t feeling well and sparkles are just the thing to cheer him up.

“Well I would say glitter and cheesecake are the definite answer then. We can use the daycare classroom to get the glitter, how’s that?” She smiled knowing the replicators there would also be able to make the dessert for the incoming dad who probably wouldn’t even be able to eat it. She’d have to find another way to keep the cake from joining them.

She ran ahead, nearly running into a medical officer who only just managed to sidestep her placing a hand out to keep the child on balance, as she ran ahead nearly disappearing in the crowd of sickbay before she thought to stop and let adults catch up.

Emma, Child

As the child ran off, Teek moved after her with a stride that allowed her to keep the girl in sight, but didn’t mean she had to run. When they both entered the corridor, Teek called out, “You can only go to the next hallway, then wait for me, Emma!” She made it seem like the girl was leading and in waiting, was doing Teek a favor. In light of the last few hours, perhaps that wasn’t too far from the truth.

((If you want, go about the medical thread… we will just assume Emma and Teek go to make glitter card… when ready ‘comm’ to Teek and I’ll get her and the kid back to sickbay… Unless you need the kid and her to interact more… then lemme know and I’ll keep posting with her lol))
