(OOC: Establishing the doctor’s presence. If some of these details are too extraneous then definitely leave them out in the final product.)<br/><br/>Dr. Marah Tren stood directly beside the captain’s chair, dressed in the standard blue minidress uniform. A medical tricorder and first aid supplies were held at her hip by the black strap going over her shoulder. Her arms were crossed and she stared thoughtfully at the viewscreen—her concern was evident in her expression. The Andorian had already established a clear pattern a month into the mission—if she had no pressing business in sickbay and the<em>Vanguard</em>was arriving somewhere interesting, she would be found standing in that very spot.<br/><br/>(OOC: The following is my suggestion for something to use if the captain asks the doctor’s opinion on the situation.)<br/><br/>Marah finally uncrossed her arms and looked to her captain. “I don’t quite know what to make of it all. If the message were meant literally then there would be no reason to send it as a distress call. But if there is a danger to justify using an emergency channel, then one wouldn’t expect a Vulcan of all people to be so vague about the nature of the problem. Maybe there’s something going on that just can’t be discussed on an open channel—something that would affect Federation security?<br/><br/>“He didn’t sound frightened, but then I wouldn’t expect that even if the planet were breaking up beneath him,” she noted wryly. “Regardless, I’d like to be part of the away team—unknown threats have a nasty habit of leading to medical emergencies.”
