049. Diagnosis

Two Lifetime channel curses in one month. I thought only two of the deities were women. If I'm not mistaken there is a significantly large amount of estrogen running this place. I'd recommend hormone therapy. But not PEMU, gotta save them horses. Is Little Orphan Annie out of the closet? The literal closet, not the metaphorical. A runaway secret lesbian is pushing the scenario way too much. Crossing over into cinemaxxx territory.

If Cuddy wanted a kid she could have just popped over to this place and waited.

I'm having a hard time believing that none of you get ill. Or shot. Or have a case of anemia. You're all a bunch of penny pinching liars who would die from stubbornness if you could die here.

X-Files?

It was a stab in the dark. Never mind. Someday though...

So when are you from? Where if that adds to it too.

We aren't using the same time system as you any more. I had to research it here, since so many people use yours. About 3000 years in your future? That's a guess. I never really studied Old Earth history.

3000? At least the world doesn't end. Chase owes me money. Thanks, Hyland.

The technical term is old school. I get the picture though.

No, it's Old Earth - the husk we left behind when we left the planet and moved out into the rest of the galaxy. It's still there, but everyone who could left long ago.

It's still there. I think I can collect on it. Sometime.

If you say so. I'll meet you at the hospital on Wednesday, or do you have an office somewhere?

I have my own office. And I have access to the hospital. You're the one with the secrets.

Your office then. Just no brain scans.

Unless you have reproductive organs between your ears that shouldn't be a problem.

I'm not a man.

Are you sure? You missed a few key chauvinistic opportunities to be indignant.

You don't rate on the offensiveness scale.

You don't want an MRI? Really.

I just looked it up. No. I don't want one.

If you'd spent any time on Captain's Fancy or Bright Beauty, you'd understand.

Captain's Fancy? You don't look like you'd be the type to go to a strip club. I'm glad you're open to that sort of thing.

It's a ship. They both are.

That's disappointing but it does go with the futuristic space motif. So I'll buy it.

It's only futuristic if you're from the past.

[ooc: There isn't a single point in five books where she's sarcastic. It's killing me. XD ]

You need a past to be futuristic. A double bind right there. Do you have tubes to get you from point A to point B? Do dogs talk with speech impediments that make them begin words with the letter R?

We have ships and shuttles and the Gap drive.

Dogs don't talk; they're just animals.

About that Gap. Can you fall into it?

Wrong. Animals have auditory communication. Technically they can talk. I asked if they could talk , as in successfully communicate with people. In that case then the answer would be no.

If the drive fails while you're in the Gap, you never come out.

I never had a dog, I'll take your word for it, but I think you're just picking at semantics.

That sounds interesting.

But other than that I think you're not a very good conversationalist. Some people might call you boring.

You're my doctor, not my public speaking teacher, nor my psych.
