LCdr Lim didn't have enough time on the Geronimo to be sentimental about leaving the ship. As they arrived at DS9 Lois was more interested in seeing what type of ship USS Aquila (the Eagle) was and if her wish had come true. A capital ship it was. Lois couldn't wait to board and inspect the Sickbay.
Lois had arranged for her luggage and belongings to be moved to her quarters so that she didn't have to drag it over herself. That gave her more time to inspect the Sickbay. That was her priority. She was delighted when she first entered. Surgical suits on the right, main Sickbay spreading out before her to her left. She walked slowly along the two rows of bio beds, seven to the right and eight to her left in the main Sickbay. She silently counted them as she proceeded and came to a second entrance and directly opposite to the entrance a fully equipped triage bay next door to the intensive care.
Most likely that's the main entrance seeing it is nearest the triage bay. Looks like I came in the secondary entrance.
Turning her eyes forward again she saw it, a door with a label, "CMO" and under that label was another label "Quarantine". She chuckled.
What does that mean? I'm under continually quarantine? I'm going to have to change that!
Entering brought her into a waiting room of sorts with two doors, one in front of Lois labelled 'CMO's Office' and another to her right labelled "Quarantine"
Well, that's a relief!
Lois sat herself down at the CMO's desk and was feeling completely satisfied with herself, she had made it! She began by looking through the personnel file of Sickbay staff and began to read, noting that Red Reddington from the Geronime had transferred to the Aquila, as well. That was one person she knew. The others she didn't know but she figured she would schedule a meeting of all the staff as soon as all had reported aboard.
After a few minutes had past, as she read through some of the career biographies of some of the senior medical staff, the CMO's office door swished open and a Lieutenant in a medical uniform entered, a human male stopped in his tracks, with shock on his face, staring at the female (Lois) sitting at the CMO's desk.
"And you are?" stated the human medical officer, "Wait a minute, are you Dr Lim the new CMO?"
"That's me, in the flesh. And you ... are...?" ask Lois, slowly.
"DCMO Lt Harry Langston, mama, sir." Harry answered.
"You can call me Lois, that's fine when we're not with patients, otherwise Dr Lim, in professional situations, please?"
"OK, Lois. You can call me, Harry," said Dr Langston, "I don't mean to forward, Lois, but would you like to get a coffee or something else to drink or eat in Ten Forward. We could chat and get to know each other before all the medical staff come aboard? Harry asked nervously.
"Well, that would be nice, Harry. I have a few things to do first, like report to the captain, protocol stuff, and find my quarters. Could we say, an hour and I'll meet you there? Oh... Could you schedule a meeting of all medical staff, say 0900 tomorrow, please? Lois requested, as she began to move to the door on her way to report to the captain.
"OK, sure, can do. And meeting 0900 tomorrow, all medical staff. See you at Ten Forward in an hour then." repeated Harry as he awkwardly moved out of the new CMO's way.
Lois was pleased with her first meeting with her deputy, although she would have liked to have chosen her own deputy. But it was a big ship, captain's prerogative, she reminded herself. And speaking of big ships, now all she had to do was find her way to the bridge, her quarters and then Ten Forward.
