Chekov can't hold the con by himself. Uhura is helping, just to keep some semblance of peace, while Sulu is still recovering. Usually, an attempt like that would have ended with him dead or in the brig instead of in my sickbay, but with Pike and that goddamn pointy-eared bastard gone, the chain of command has gone to hell.

Word has reached the rest of the crew that we're dead in the water. Well, dead in the vacuum at least. Which is not an image of comfort. Nor should it be; space is disease and danger wrapped up in darkness and silence - what the fuck did these little dipshits expect?

And did they expect the Empire to gift wrap them like fine fucking crystal before sending them out into the void? Everyone's all squeamish just because Sulu has weeping patches of skin infection. I told him to take care of those grafts but no. He figured it'd be just goddamn peachy to fuck some tail and completely ignore that the fluid barrier is just good sense. You don't go rubbing someone else's wet stuff in your own damaged tissue.

I mean, for fuck's sake, I thought it was a well-known rule:

If it's wet and sticky and not your own, don't touch it.

Or at least don't be surprised when you pick up some nice little foreign bacteria and they start eating your flesh.

Which reminds me, I need a booster vaccine against blood-born pathogens and the rest of the crew need their shots. Now's as good a time as any.

Violating your oath as a doctor to do no harm. Lack of moral compass. Sexual harassment of others.

Are you sharp enough to understand those?

I'll take this in an orderly fashion.

Those fucking orderlies, man, they have such interesting fashions.

But, seriously, I didn't take any such oath. Transdimensional prejudice there, creeping out? Morality is relative. And, what, you think they designed those girl uniforms because they respected female officer minds? No, they appreciate female officer ass.

So what is your dimension's version of moral compass?

Your universe have a Darwin? Survival of the fittest?

"Survival of the fittest" is very often misused in popular understanding. The "fit" are those who reproduce, passing their genes to the next generation. It does not necessarily mean physical, mental, or emotional health.

You have to survive to fucking reproduce. That's the highest order of the goddamn day.

...I see your point. It still makes me ill, and no you cannot treat me, "doctor."

Not my fault if you make yourself sick.
