This is Inara. I'm on the ship. Is there anyone still working who has something with them that I could wear back into the city?

I'll be visiting Doctor Solus sometime in the next few days if you'd like me to ask him. What was it called?

[Haruka wrinkles her nose at the thought of Mordin Solus, but she nods. As long as she doesn't have to talk to him.]

Neauroimaging equipment. And somebody who knows how to use it.

[She had to look that up in English, since the conversation about it took place in Japanese. But she's sure that's the right translation.]

[Inara notices the grimace. Clearly Haruka has already either witnessed or been the victim of the doctor's eccentricities before.]

He's a bit odd, but not so bad if you know how to handle him. And he does excellent work.

The hospital should have neuroimaging equipment, but I don't know how easy it will be to get access. I'll ask him when I see him.

[kazeninaru]

Then I obviously do not know how to handle him.

[Haruka gives a sniff, with that. But she relents and offers Inara a little smile, as they step out into the open air at last. It's hard to stay annoyed around someone that pretty, especially when one isn't even annoyed at her.]

Thank you for your help, Inara-san. We'll find him sometime.

[unofficial_ambassador]

[Inara returns the smile, but then sighs and looks out at the horizon.]

I hope so. I promised Nem that no one else would die for this.
