[JMC_Blue_Dwarf] Triage
(OOC : I can't believe I'm actually posting! Err,
hopes this works. - Zoe)
************************************
Who: Coffey, Medibay Staff, Injured
Where: Medibay
When: During the fighting
It was an absolute madhouse in Medibay. The influx of
injured resulting from the invasion of the Blue Dwarf
by the alternate universe evil Red Dwarf continued to
be brought in. Nurse Hazel Coffey was being run off
her feet overseeing the triage efforts taking place.
She had looked at more sword wounds that she had ever
thought she'd see in her life. Several injured pirates
had been brought in as well but they were strapped to
their stretchers before and after medical care. Since
all the security was out fighting the invaders, she'd
dosed the wounded pirates up with some soporific
ointment of Keto's. Coffey had no idea what was in it
but the scumbags were all peacefully grinning with
eyes closed while mumbling about pink bunnyrabbits and
lollipop trees. She had even kicked one as she passed
by but to no effect.
As she worked on patients, Coffey wondered if there
was an alternate of herself on the ship. She shuddered
and hoped not. If there was, there's no telling what
the alternate Hazel Coffey could be. An assassin, an
interrogator, an evil medical experimentator, an
interior decorator who liked French Provincial, maybe
even a woman who wore powder blue eye shadow and a
bleach blonde bulbous bouffant...Hazel shuddered
again. There were some things best left unthought.
Coffey was quite worried about how many more wounded
might arrive for medical care. Earlier in the day, she
had been to look over the alternate universe Rimmer
down in the brig and from the man's condition,
mentally and physically, she had a pretty accurate
guess as to the level of depravity and evil that the
pirate Red Dwarf could sink to. The alternate Arnold
Rimmer was malnourished and clearly bore marks of
being tortured and acted as though he were suffering
from shell shock. Dr. Cerebrum had tested him and at
the moment Appendix A was giving the asylum seeker
counselling. The soothing glow of the appendix seemed
to be temporarily comforting the man.
Just as Coffey was finishing surgically glueing up a
long, jagged cut on a crewman's scalp, a message was
patched in through the Medibay computer.
"Coffey, this is Keto."
"Keto! What's happened?"
"We're coming back from the pirate ship. Jay
Chrysler's received a sword thrust through his upper
back which emerged out his sternum. Clear the main
operating theatre immediately. I need to perform
intensive surgery as soon as we get back. Keto out."
Coffey turned to the Big Pink Tree, who was patting
the head of an injured crewmember with a leafy branch.
The tree rustled with concern. Coffey nodded.
"Yup. You heard him. Let's get moving."
