You'll be relieved to know that we're not still at war.
( she knows, she knows, you shouldn't reveal any futuristic details, but she doesn't give much, just something to breathe over. when that war ended, and how nahla won't say, but there'll be enough he'd be able to learn just by looking around -- starfleet still existed. maybe the outcome was obvious enough )
I know that you've said that you're alright, but I'd still like to have my chief medical officer examine you. He may be able to find out something about why you got here, even if you are healthy.
( you're 800 years in the future, doctor, medicine has done exactly what you'd expect )
I also have many questions for you.
sorry for the delay, been picking up a lot of extra hours this month so may be slow for a bit.
[Julian takes in a breath at the "we're not still at war." He sighs it back out in obvious relief.]
I noticed you didn't seem to be speaking Dominionese and was hoping for the best. I didn't want to ask.
I worked with some other Augments. Our statistical analyses of possible outcomes of the war were....dire. Captain Sisko had to talk me back into having a little hope.
[He's glad she told him. That doesn't mean he'll stop fighting his damndest because he knows it may be necessary. That should have minimal bearing on the timeline.]
[He nods at her in agreement at being examined, though he looks annoyed at the prospect. But it is true that doctors are the worst patients.]
[He stands to go to their Infirmary.]
Whether you want to do it now or after I meet with your CMO, ask away.
( she makes a mental notes at this point to make sure the good doctor is kept away from lura -- whilst they're centuries different, she's not certain that would be a nice surprise for him. at least without some pre-warning. which nahla doesn't do yet )
Let's do it now.
( it wouldn't take much for the doctor to be able to get to her office, and she didn't yet wish to break up the conversation they were having )
The wormhole. You've no doubt travelled through it hundreds of times. Was there anything different about it this time, readings that you've never seen before, or some part of your mission that could have had enough of an impact to result in this?
The sensors indicated the bio-litrocene we were transporting on board was interacting somehow with the wormhole and a tachyon leak from the damage. We were trying to figure out what was happening but then I wound up here.
[A pause.]
The wormhole was often sensitive to certain types of energies. This certainly wouldn't be the first time it transported me somewhere odd.
But it is the first time it's taken you quite so far?
( nahla assumes based on his reaction. one of her hands moves again, half-way back to her mouth before she pauses, it hovering mid-air, and then she lowers it back down )
I doubt we'd be able to replicate the precise scenario that caused you to arrive here, though we will be able to send you back.
( nahla says it as certainty, even though she doesn't know it yet. they'd have to do simulations, break a few laws-- all time travel technology had been destroyed and banned after the temporal wars. but this was an extraordinary circumstance )
We'll get you there, Doctor.
sorry for the long delay, how do you want to handle any stuff of him getting checked out?
Well, it did take me to the mirror universe. I'd say another dimension is quite far.
But this is certainly the farthest I've been taken in time.
[A shrug.]
Let's see if your medical staff can find anything unusual. I must admit I'm curious to see your Medbay. I know I should try not to pay that much attention to any technology but it can't hurt to look.
so much screaming!!! many tears

no worries at all!
