[open] A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous.

A world of grief and pain:
Flowers bloom;
Even then ...

We humans--
squirming around
among the blossoming flowers.

In this world
we walk on the roof of hell,
gazing at flowers.

Of course. Take a left at the nurse's station, and then it's three doors down on the right.

[And then she extends a hand.]

I take it you're new here? I'm Martha Jones. Really, Dr. Jones, but this place doesn't like women being doctors. It's ridiculous.

[keen_incisions]

Is it that obvious? Dr Jones, Nathan Wallace. Er, Doctor Wallace, I should say.

[There might be the very hint of a smile when he takes her hand. He's a serious one.]

[yearthatneverwas]

I'm used to new arrivals, you might say, having been here for a few months. It's not obvious, not really. You look like you belong in the setting, and it's very nice to see a doctor that takes his work as seriously as you appear to.

[But there's a smile back.]

[keen_incisions]

[The small smile? It widens. He's flattered, and a little embarrassed...and not quite letting go her hand just yet. A drone nurse wanders by on some unknown errand, carrying a ribbon wrapped arrangement of daisies and mint.]

I going to do my best. If...If you don't mind my asking, in what field do you practice? The town seems to assume I'm a general practitioner, but I was a surGen at home.

[Well. Surgeon in a manner of speaking.]

[yearthatneverwas]

My training was in emergency medicine. I worked in a trauma unit before taking a position with a division of the United Nations, doing work in the field after a natural disaster.

[In a manner of speaking. Aliens visiting the planet count, right?]

But the town seems to think I'm a general practice nurse. I don't know why it's so focused on general practice when there are trained surgeons and emergency medicine practitioners here. It doesn't make a bit of sense.

[It's hard to tell, but she's blushing.]
