Surprise...Oh, Wait, The Organiser\'s Fired...
Who: Medibay Staff
Where: Medibay
When: During Sean's little quippage session ;)
===================================
-- SNIP --
> "If anyone sees Cleavage so much as set one foot in this medibay

> There was a silenced hurried nodding from all the members of the

> "Doctor," he asked.
> "What?" asked Keto, tired and irritated.
> "What if she has leprosy? Because then, not only is she infected
> with a lethal disease, but she also has the possiblity of limbs

> Keto was silent, before mumbling angrily and turnign to re-enter

> Mayer shrugged, "Just a simple question."
-- END SNIP --
As Keto started to enter his office, however, something caught his
eye. He glanced towards the Tree as Mayer and Wildflower started
talking about some insipidly puerile project, no doubt.
"What," asked Keto, pointing at the Tree's upper branches, "Is
THAT?"
*Rustle rustle...* said the Tree defensively.
"A party hat?" asked Keto, raising an eyebrow, "Why are you
we...Nurse Coffey, WHAT are you trying futilely to hide behind your
back?"
Coffey coughed as Keto stared at the party streamer she was
standing in front of. The doctor frowned.
"Why is there a lot of non-medical, party-related paraphenalia in
my medibay, may I ask?" he asked coldly.
"Oh, Tara brought it in," called Mayer over his shoulder. Keto
turned as if on a platform.
"What?"
"Tara brought it in....oh..." said Sean, realising that Tara had
actually stipulated a 'surprise' party.
"...Cleavage brought all this stuff into my medibay?" asked Keto,
one eyebrow raising again.
"I'm sure she would have cleaned it all up again!" said Wildflower.
"Cleavage was planning to throw a party in my medical bay?"
"Definitely cleaned it all up again."
"For me?"
"We would have helped."
"Where did she go?" growled Keto, and headed for the door. As it
swished shut behind him, Mayer coughed.
"Tell me, is he always this irritable, or is it just when people
are trying to cheer him up?"
There was an almost inaudible hum that suddenly shut off, and
suddenly everyone began floating off the floor. From outside, there
came a yell.
"Some things can make it worse," nodded Wildflower sagely as she
held herself down by the desk.
-- Outside the Medibay --
"Cleavage!" yelled Keto, spotting Tara floating out of a storeroom
near the lift, "I want a word with you!" With that, he began to haul
himself along the corridor walls, hand over hand...at least, they
looked like the walls - with no gravity there was no easy way to
tell...

OOC: Tag, Becca. You know what the basic outcome has to be,
right? ;) If not, feel free to ask!
