[QUOTE="Shadowdancer, post: 1309253, member: 515"] [font=Verdana][size=2]Vasilii enters main cargo and sees the rest of the ship’s crew hard at work. Vasilii approaches the doctor, smiles and says, "Dr. Talbek, your presence is requested in the captain’s quarters." Thinking a few seconds, Vasilii realizes the request may sound weird, so he quickly adds, "It’s regarding the safe. They’re worried about airborne pathogens and the like." Saro glances up upon hearing Vasilii’s proclamation that the Captain needs him. "Safe? What does a safe have to do with me?" he thinks. Ian turns away from the pallet he’s inspecting to pipe up. "Hey Doc! If in doubt, just get Martha to rip the whole thing out of the floor with a laser, stick it in an airlock, and open it in there whilst depressurized. Better the safe and sorry about the decor, if ya know what I mean." At this, Darishun looks up and softly says, "Ah, good doctor. Please let the captain know that I would be most happy to help move the safe if he needs a bit of help. Perhaps placing the safe in an airlock and then depressurizing the airlock before opening might be a good idea." Nodding, Saro leaves the cargo bay and makes his way to the cabin. "Oh yeah," Ian calls as the doctor leaves, "and mention to the Cap’n that he might want to detail someone to check the air raft — his unlucky predecessor had to have some way to transport contraband and he might have been using that. "Sorry Darishun — What where you saying? Oh, yeah three flow cytometry instruments, two confocal microscopes and six extracellular matrix angiogenesis biocompatible implant packs.
