[the sphere comes on to show Oliver sitting on the Observation Deck, his ever-present backpack on the seat beside him. one of his hands is covered in gauze and bandages that reach past his wrist, and the strain in his expression reveals the pain he's still in. however, his determination is unmistakable]Everybody who got hurt heard the Doctor,

[celestial_okami]

I'll be happy to help. Let me know if anyone needs anything specific. [She'd offer a place to sleep, but even in her wolf form, she sorta fills up the bed.]

[oliverplus]

Okay, I'll keep that mind! [smiles gratefully, although his expression might be a bit worn] Thanks, Ammy.

[celestial_okami]

You're welcome, Ollie. [Worried face, she doesn't know how to fix injuries on other people.]

[oliverplus]

Ammy? Are you okay?

[versus_dolorosa]

I'm already getting things for people that've had their codes burned off, but if anyone needs anything, let me know.

And... [Fuuma pauses at this point, looking away for a moment before continuing] If it really is the Commander...I can help subdue him if need be.

[oliverplus]

I will, thanks.

[nods] You think so, too, then?

[versus_dolorosa]

No problem.

Not sure. I don't want to think it is, but...well, we can't always get what we want.

[oliverplus]

I keep wondering... I mean, there's gotta be a relation between him and the captain, doesn't there?

[rocksecution]

[That wasn't what he was expecting to hear.]

What's your basis for thinking it's Orion?

[oliverplus]

We already know he's the one who killed the captain. And... [frowns, glancing at his arm] We know he's been lying to us the whole time now. Klavier, it looked like he did this to us on purpose...

[rocksecution]

So everything he said about trying to rescue us was a lie? It's a lot of effort to go to -- and for what reason?

[oliverplus]

[shakes his head] I don't know. But he's obviously been on the ship for ages already, so why get us onto the engineering levels at all?

Even if we assume he left that panel with the riddle to let us in, why not give us the answer? He must've known what it would do.

[not_that_lockon]

[mutters] Son of a bitch...

[and it's clear from his expression that he means Orion.]

[oliverplus]

It makes sense. Well, as much sense as it can...

[not_that_lockon]

Unfortunately, I can't argue with you.

What's on level 3?

[oliverplus]

The crew quarters--and that message. I...actually lost my memory of seeing level three, but the Doctor still remembers.

[shoutsforearth]

Oi, you've burned your hand as well! Don't forget to take care of yourself! [she's probably going to give the Doctor the very same reminder, if she hasn't already.]

[oliverplus]

[oh, not her, too!] I'm okay, don't worry. We've got other things to concentrate on right now.

[shoutsforearth]

[yes her. 8|] Oh yes, I know all about that! But if you and the Spaceman are going to be idiots about looking after your injuries then you'll be a fat lot of good no matter how much you concentrate on other things.

[oliverplus]

[how many parents does one person need??] We're not being idiots! Look, it's bandaged, and spells aren't working, so all we can do is wait.

What about you? You're okay, right?
