"Benedict?" You approach the man. A spare prosthetic arm has been fully installed, thanks to your efforts a while back. He's unconscious but stable. You adjust a few things around his hospital bed to make sure he doesn't get uncomfortable.
"mmh." Benedict mumbles something your audio receptors can't receive. He mumbles it again and you can hear it. "adamlook,imsorrybutihadtodoit." Nightmares...you're glad you don't have them. You gently brush his hair with your hand.
"It's going to be fine. You're safe with us." You're telling this to him and yourself. You refill his glass of water. He opens up his eye for the first moment in a while! You quickly shift your posture!
"Ah! Is there any issues? Any pain, fever, requests?" You fire off a response before you have time to process. "I want to make sure you-"
"...mmg.h.." Benedict slowly sits up. He raises a hand up to get your attention. You stop talking. "I'm...fine. Just. Bad nightmare. Need drink." You quickly nod, handing him a glass of water. He quickly gulps it down before putting it on the nearby table. "Thank you for taking care of me."
"No problem! Seeing people getting nice and healthy is the only reward I need!" You beep with genuine glee.
"Right. When can I...leave?" Benedict mutters. You're not really sure how to answer! It's not really something you can decide. "The Administrator will handle it! I'm just here to take care of you!"
That seems to give him enough of a answer for him to lay back down. After making sure he doesn't need anything else, you move on to the other two patients. Isabelle Miller and Zero. Funny, both of them are related to cowboys! Thank goodness those evil ones got taken care of before they could commit human harm!
Zero looks pretty rattled! Thankfully, not the "AIE ALL OF MY HUMAN BLOOD IS POURING OUT" kind! Woo, the trauma kits only have so many tiny bloodbags! Isabelle is scribbling down on a notepad, so you'll leave her be for now.
"Zero? What's wrong?" You quietly ask. You want to make sure she's fine, after all. Her skin is still pale from bloodloss and her hair is a mess! "Mind if I fix it up?" You gesture at her hair. She nods.
"I. It's nothing, just. Had a talk with the Admin. You know?" She stutters and pauses as she speaks. Hm! Well, if it was just a talk, then all's fine! You quietly hum a short little tune while you tend to her mess of hair.
"Well, don't worry! It'll be all fine tomorrow, I promise! Every day's a new day of interesting experiences!" You make some cheerful little beeps to try cheering her up. Zero gives a faint smile. "Yeah. Maybe you're right."
"HEY!" Oh. Him. You finish tending to Zero's hair. "Yes, Presley?" You yell back. "I GOT URIEL! FORTUNE THING NOW!" You nod. You quickly refill Zero's water glass before heading outside of the medbay.
The older gentleman in question is holding said book. Huh, his uniform looks different. It's white, the others are usually black. Neat!
"Let's proceed." Uriel mutters.
