[ON]

Returning to sickbay with a jar of follicle growth stimulants, an exhausted Tuula rolled towards the lab. "Allyndra," she called out, stifling a yawn. "I've got the cream I gave Gilbert."

Allyndra had everything set up and turned as Tuula rolled wearily in. For her it was the opposite, a challenge made her excited and kept her awake. "Excellent," she said taking the jar and making a cursory glance at some of the labeling.

There were a few things that stood out which she doubted would have much effect but then there were others that she could not rule out. "I am going to get the machines started and looking especially at these." She turned again to do the sample preparations.

Over her shoulder she said, "You my dear look like you need to get some rest. Go on now this is going to take time."

"Are you sure you don't need any help?" Tuula's eyes absent-mindedly wandered to the bandage on Allyndra's hand for a moment before she consciously looked away.

"I will be fine." Allyndra replied

"Okay," she replied, suddenly realizing that she hadn't taken a shower since her jaunt in the sauna with T'Vanna. Still, she didn't want to leave sickbay while there was work to do. Or leave Gilbert in the hands of the scary angelic figure who the tribble was clearly afraid of. "Mind if I use the facilities here and take a nap in your office until the start of my shift?"

Allyndra turned her head, "Not at all, please get some rest."

"I will. Thank you, doctor," replied Tuula, taking one last glance at Allyndra working diligently at finding a cure before turning and rolling out.

Allyndra watched Tuula go before setting the machine and the samples in motion for analysis and collapsing into a lab chair. She closed her eyes and drifted off with visions of molecules and furballs dancing in her head.
