Un'lar Adaal<br/><strong>Location:</strong>USS Redemption Bridge<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Captain Arik Soong, All others<br/><strong>NSFW Warning:</strong><br/><br/>Un'lar arrived first, carrying a PADD with him, as well as a Cup of Red Leaf Tea. It had a set of joint exercises he was requesting... Security of course heavily involved in his plans (running quarantines), but Science (largely with the biological labs), as well as Engineering (disaster relief) were also involved. Some of it was simply the need for such drills. If any of the contingencies covered in the simulations came to pass, he couldn't have the teams unused to the Medical Protocols, and his staff unused to dealing with the other members of the crew as anything other than patients. On the Starbase, the Sickbay had largely operated as its own little world, controlled far more by Starfleet Medical then it was by the nominal commander. And to an extent, that had been fine. Sickbay in the Starbase was largely just a hospital, with little to do with the Stations 'larger mission' (insofar as it could be said to have any one 'larger mission.') That couldn't be the case on the Redemption. But there was more to it that. The crew had to get used to him giving them orders. Because if it came to pass there was a contagion on the vessel, he'd be the one making the choice of who got to live. Captain Soong commanded the Vessel, but the health of its crew was entrusted to Un'lar, and he intended to make good on that trust.<br/><br/>"Good morning Captain."<br/><br/>Un'lar placed his PADD on the table in front of him, taking a position midway at the table. The Captain was... odd, to Un'lar. An Android was difficult to fit into his world. Un'lar could no more help him in the event of any malady then he could the ships engines (actually, Un'lar had a better chance with the engines...). But at the same time... if the Captain was ill, he had the responsibility to remove him from command. But, he wasn't really capable of making the judgment calls needed. Perhaps he would have to petition Starfleet Medical for guidance. Or the Ship's Chief Engineering or Operations officer. That got a bit of smile. The vision of the rumors that question would start was suitably absurd. He took a sip of his tea to cover the expression.<br/><br/>"Glad to have returned to the vasty deeps? Service on Earth or on any of the worlds of the Federation has its attractions, but none of us went to the Academy to spend the rest of our lives..." Un'lar had to stop himself from adding, 'however long they might be...' "...in San Francisco."
