Deck 2, Chief Navigational Officer's Quarters:

Urvasi had finished her unpacking. There wasn't much to put around. The quarters were the same size as the Akira Class she had been on, which was expected the New Century Class was about Exploration and extended missions, so a lot of space went to the specialized equipment for its mission parameters. Urvasi looked around the room and nodded.

On the wall above the two person table was her promissory note from Verrona Azariah Olalandren, her best friend from Higher Education and Advanced Education Studies on Existence Point Planet in the Federation Territories. The Promissory Note was one of an offer of companionship, which meant that Verrona would pack up and go to where ever Urvasi was to live and be a loving companion for as long as they both desired. The The USS Avalon did not have any such room or amenities to spare for a civilian to be on board. However, the Enterprise might? Urvasi would have to check into it later.

Near her bed were the commendations, certificates, and diplomas from her studies, the rescuing of classmates from the burning school, while prominent among them was the picture of a finished tree house, with an inset picture of her puncture wounds, front and back, from her fall in the middle of making it. She didn't mind others seeing the two pictures as they were a testament of her keeping going despite setbacks.

With her sweep done, Urvasi nodded and left the now, 'Her' quarters, and went to Sickbay to get her check-in physical out of the way.

Deck 8, Main Sickbay:

Urvasi entered the full of activity Sickbay. As the USS Uhura was transferring personnel and supplies, that meant fresh incoming medical supplies that were difficult or impossible to replicate, so Urvasi was expecting the hustle and bustle. She looked around for a place to sit, then sat down and waited for a doc or nurse to notice her. She brought out a Padd and brought up a 5 row Sudoku puzzle to enjoy while she waited. While her eyes and whiskers were focused towards the Padd, her ears kept shifting about in listening for anyone directly approaching her. She sat at a slight angle to allow for her tail to be around on her right side and down to her feet, covering them. The very tip moved lazily back and forth, showing patience.

Rio finished with the check up for her previous patient and came directly across to the Reception waiting area to ask for "Lt Elandorn please?" - when Urvasi responded, Rio came towards her with a wide and welcoming smile. "Sorry to keep you waiting" she began although she was aware that she was running pretty much to time at the moment, it was an easy way to start off.

Urvasi smiled and shook her head as she responded, "You didn't, all good." Her ears, whiskers, and tail showed a relaxed attitude.

"Please come through." The CMO knew it was probably unusual to be coming out and collecting her own patients for their appointments but it was who and what she was and there was nothing in the rules to say she ought to be any different. "I'm Rio" she introduced herself informally and simply. "I'm just finding my feet as I'm new here too" she explained. "I was on a Starbase before this - it's quite a different set up but I have to say I do prefer the more hands-on, personal angle that a Starship offers."

Urvasi yiffered gently as she followed and replied, "I'm Urvasi, new also, and yeah, definitely different, glad you like hands on."

Opening out her arm to indicate a biobed in a cubicle just inside the main bay areas, Rio offered a seat on the end of the bed initially, to the Lieutenant in front of her. "I'm just loading up your medical records, please just relax."

Urvasi gladly sat down and brought her tail around her right side to lay down near her feet, its tip still moving gently. She yiffered gently as she said, "Relaxing, aye." A small musical humm could be heard coming from her throat as she waited the medical records to get through the system. Transfers were always fun with data delays.

Urvasi's Medical Physical Chart showed her race having have three lungs, two hearts, and two livers besides the normal organ accompaniment of humanoid races. Her weight was heavier due to heavy g as well as having extra bands of muscles for having a tail and being a tree dwelling race. There are retractable climbing claws on hands and feet. There are vibration sensing whiskers on face, muzzle, wrists, ankles, and in tail. The eyes can see partway into the ultraviolet and infrared spectrum. There are some differences in digestive and reproductive organs.

Urvasi's Medical Records were mainly typical of a kid and young adult growing up in a family environment. The records showed all inoculations were up to date and with proper timely medical check-ins. There were a couple of standouts, one from her tree fort fall causing puncture wounds on her 8.5 year old body and the other of her being treated for burns and smoke inhalation when she was 11.3 years old where she also earned a commendation for saving lives. A weird standout testing was a full battery of Social, Mental, and Personality testing done at 13 years of age, when she was now marked at 'Young Adult, ready for Dating'. The notes beside that event was that her racial years were longer than Terran, and why the 13 years showed 24 Terran Years. Her current age for Vulienrey is 21 years old, however, her current Terran years are showing 39.5 years.

The medical check-ins showed she had Higher Education Training, Advanced Scholastic Studies, A Tau-Riene Specialty Academy, and then the StarFleet Academy. The USS Avalon check-in showed verification of her having Telekinetic, Telepathic, and Empathic Psi abilities, with the Telekinetic and Telepathic limited in range and power. The Empathic was unusual in that it was 1 AU range and could detect Warp/Hyperspace/Gravity field changes. Meanwhile, Urvasi was gently waiting, fully at ease, her attention on trying to make sense of the bio-bed inactive readout placemarkers.

Rio scanned the uploading records but having already read them when she was first given the job of CMO to this crew, but she refreshed her memory on the details with a quick recap before addressing the Chief Navigational Officer.

"Wow, you have a full range of psych sets of skills, Lieutenant." She commented in order to start their interaction. Smiling in a friendly, warm manner, the CMO set the biobed to full scan and asked the Vulpinoid officer to make herself comfortable with her back against the upright of the Biobed, from which situation she was then contained within the field which Rio programmed into the equipment with her nimble fingers flashing gently across the LCARS lights on the console to the right and rear of the booth.

"So whilst these scans run, is there anything we want to discuss today. Any aches, pains, problems or concerns about your health or your body in general?" Kholin asked,

Urvasi relaxed into the biobed, letting the machine do its work for the doctor. She replied, "As far as my body, no concerns or problems right now, Doctor Rio. Let's see, female stuff. My period was two weeks ago, nothing amiss, so next one will be in 12.8 weeks from now Terran time. As far as my time, it is once every 8 weeks for five days in that time while I am fertile for 7 days opposite the period. For Terran time, though, it works out to once every 14.8 weeks for 9.25 of those days, with the fertility of 13 days. And, no, I have never had intercourse, even though I have engaged in oral with both male and female. Nothing male since Existence Point, and female at the Academy. On exercise, yes, I have kept it up by developing Tree Road Holodeck adventures. Hmm, speaking of physical, will my quarters have gravity adjustment so I can increase it to my native 1.8g?"

The Biobed showed the two hearts beating opposite at 52 beats per minute, her lungs were working shallow due to ease of getting oxygen and no exertion, with the rest of her body's readings being right in line with the biobed ranges for the Vulienrey Race.

"Everything seems to be in order Lieutenent. I'll put in your request for your natural gravity settings right away" Rio commented as she read off the summary the Biobed's console was giving her. She continued batching up the scan results and findings and filing them in their appropriate places on the console and transferring all the information and data up into the Main Computer. She even filed the ovarian cycle as these were facts direct from a Vulienrey female's own mouth and they would be useful for checking that the Starbase main files on the Vulienrey was up to date and accurate. Obviously, the data that was to be used for the general knowledge of this race of peoples would only go up in neutral language without any reference to Urvasi by name or any form of identification either.

With both the generic anonymous data and the personal medical findings that were destined for the Lieutenant, Rio was able to sign off the routine medical and produce a data-rod of the latest additions filed for Urvasi to take away with her.

"Yours is a fascinating Species, Urvasi." Rio said as she handed the pencil sized Data-rod to the Vulienrey Officer. "If you're ever in need of being bored some quiet afternoon, I'd love to talk to you about your culture and people and home world" she said in a joking manner but then qualified it by adding. "but no, seriously, if ever you really were interested in telling me more, I'd be very glad indeed, but there's no pressure of course, and i can imagine you'll have more than enough to do without that." she smiled a genuine and serious smile and with the data-rod handed over, said "thank you for coming in for your check up. Stay well and fit. You're already doing a very good job so please keep up the great work!"

Urvasi gladly accepted the Data-rod as she attentively listened to the Doc's musings, request, and compliment. Urvasi got up and answered, "Thank you for the compliments, Doc Rio. I am glad you approve of my steps to remain healthy, and yes, I would love to meet up with you after the initial period of getting acclimated with the ships routine. Don't be surprised if I have a bunch of questions for you as well about your race. I have been running into so many different races I am not used to in the L'Tandrey Protectorate or in the Federation Frontier Existence Point Planet. It is always fun learning about others." She seemed to mouth something to herself, then she added, "Sorry for the more formal speech. I seem to be 'proper' Federation with others until I get to know them. I look forward to a future date."

"As do I" Rio confirmed with a warm smile and stood aside to allow Urvasi to leave when ready.

Urvasi performed a gentle curtsy with a peculiar side motion of her muzzle gently to the left, exposing her right side muzzle slightly to Rio. She then stepped back and performed a very balanced about face move with her tail providing counter balance. She moved off, her tail tip moving lazily even as the tail shifted with her body shifts and hip swings to keep her smoothly flowing forward.
