[After finding her clothes and things, Christine is tiptoeing through the ship, expecting an enemy around every corner. But when she comes to the hatch that leads out, she feels a rush of relief. Slipping outside, she takes in her surroundings, and then tries the communicator in her hand -- one that looks so much like one from the Enterprise that she assumes she can reach her ship.]

Chapel to Enterprise. I'm at an unknown location. I was captured and placed in some sort of stasis pod. Requesting you beam me up immediately.

[She waits, and nothing happens. Nor is there any response from the transporter team. Uh oh.]

Enterprise, come in?

[More silence. Sighing, she begins to move away from the crashed ship, wondering if there's something about it that's blocking her signal. She looks curiously at the domed city in the distance, and the landscape surrounding her. Then she speaks to herself.]

Where am I?

We get that crashed vessel functional again. There are quite a few people working on the problem, between doing work needed around the city, though it isn't likely to occur very soon, I'm afraid.

[He remembers now where he's heard of the Enterprise.]

You do not happen to know a Doctor Leonard McCoy, do you?

[It's unlikely she can be of help with the ship, but she can at least help in the city.]

I do.

[And now she actually smiles.]

I'm the one who's really in charge of his medbay back home, but don't you go telling him I said that.

Oh, is that so.

[Lyall chuckles at that.]

I believe I know better than to say such a thing to Doctor McCoy, so I'll take that advice. So you are a doctor, as well? You would be welcome here: there is a hospital, if, according to Doctor McCoy, a primitive one.

A nurse, actually. His Head Nurse. And I'd be happy to help, whatever the situation there.

It's better than it has been. There was a plague here, but your friend and a couple of the other doctors managed to put a stop to that. There are still plenty of injuries and smaller-scale illnesses to contend with, and a young native woman with no immune system, apparently.

And if you do come to work at the hospital, I suppose you will have to put up with me. I handle most of the scheduling and supply acquisition and patient organization and such.

[He never knew so much about hospitals until that blasted plague when he had to literally take over... ah well. At least he's being useful.]

So Dr. McCoy tells me. It seems I missed something pretty major.

[She recognizes his duties as things she's performed herself. That makes her smile.]

I know about all that stuff, so if you ever need a hand, let me know?

[And she will try very hard not to take over and do it all herself. Really.]

I'll keep that in mind, thank you.

[Good luck. He's not a werewolf Beta for nothing, and he has the key to his office, these days, not Pepper. And this is the work he likes best here, for the most part, since the work he'd want most he couldn't do here. There aren't many political and governmental investigations to run in a post-apocalyptic world.]

Has anyone directed you to the Flop yet? Or are you heading for the hospital first?

Sure. The Flop? No, Dr. McCoy sent me a map to the hospital, so that's where I'm going.

Probably for the best, then. He can show you around-- if he thinks about it. If not, you can ask anyone for directions. The Flop is where most of the ship's compliment live, at least if and until they find somewhere else more to their liking. There is free food there, though not much, and the roof doesn't leak.

[Which is better than most of the city, really.]

I'll see what kind of mood he's in when I see him in person.

[Christine likes to think she can easily decipher his moods, from surly, to cranky, to grumpy and beyond.]

Oh, well, this is a lot of information, but I guess I may as well stay there until I can think clearer about my future.

Is this difficult? I have rarely seen him change moods.

[That was a joke, if a potentially hard to see one. Lyall does have a sense of humor. Sometimes.]

If you wish to drop by my office once Doctor McCoy is finished with you, for any gaps in your knowledge he might have forgotten to fill in, I should be here until about noon, and I will be back again tomorrow morning, early.

[She laughs.]

I'll admit, the change in mood can be subtle. I swear I almost saw him smile once.

[It's possible she's joking too, but it would be plausible if she wasn't.]

Thank you. I'll probably stop in to see you, regardless if Dr. McCoy's instructions are lacking.

I'll look forward to that, Miss Chapel. Good luck with the good doctor's mood.

[He isn't wearing his hat indoors, so he can't tip it, but he does incline his head with a polite smile.]

Thank you. Until then.

((wanna handwave the meeting? or go to action? ^^ ))

[ooc: handwaving is good!]
