Cmdr Rasa Kes (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=329997.msg15759723#msg15759723)</strong><br/><strong> Med Bay --&gt; Conference Room </strong><br/><strong>Heading to the Senior Staff Meeting </strong><br/><strong>Open </strong><br/><hr/><br/>At any given day in the Med Bay, things could be running hot or cold. One day they could have a waiting room full of crewmembers lining up to be seen by one of the medical staff and the next, it was peacefully quiet, and the staff could work on their research. Today was thankfully quiet, so Lt. Cmdr Rasa Kes, the Victoria’s Chief Medical Officer, was taking time to review the crew’s medical records, noting upcoming appointments, prescription refills and who was due for their annual physicals so that she could have the staff send out reminders. All the while, in the background, one of her current experiments was running, sending data out to the computer on regular intervals. Rasa was completely immersed in her work when the call came from the Bridge to attend the senior staff meeting, but since the experiment was self-monitoring and the file review could be resumed later, it was easy for her to set the work aside and leave the Med Bat short notice.<br/><br/>After a brief check in with her staff and a quick ride on the nearest turbolift, the doctor stepped out onto the floor where the conference room was located and into the room itself. “Hello, Captain. Commander,” Dr. Kes said as she walked around the table and selected a seat next to Lt. Andis. “Hello everyone.” Rasa sat down in her chair, expression brightening when she saw the coffee. She reached out and poured herself a cup, adding sugar and then sipping the piping hot liquid with a smile. She’d come to love coffee and espresso while at Starfleet Academy, and the flavor of it – even replicated – reminded her of her time on Earth. It was then she saw the pastries, and Rasa selected one of those as well, along with a napkin, setting it down on the table in front of her and tearing off a small piece.<br/><br/>Sipping her coffee and nibbling on the pastry, Dr. Kes waited for the meeting to begin, curious as to why it had been called and what the Captain had to discuss with them.<br/>
