Beta blushed a little in embarrassment
"Alex just calls me that....he's done it since we were kids, he never stopped"
"And I never will Cass, and I've looked into it, she's technically still human but I ain't anymore"

"Hmm... I'll run some tests on some stuff... See what percent... Forget it. I'll just tell you when it's finished. Hey, Alex, do you got the time?"
-
"For what? A test? Might as well I guess"
-
"No, no, no. The actual time. The time of day."
-
"About 9:30 local time"
-
"Got it. You gonna stay for Beta's next PT session? It's at one."
-
"Sure, I'm a doctor too actually, or at least, I patched up my crew for a while Did a decent job of it too, so I guess I'm a doctor" [spoiler]fact, he was the arrowhead's medic[/spoiler]
-
"I'm a genetic and anatomical doctor. I can fix people up, give them PT, then alter their genes to make sure their kids won't end up with any problems."
-
"I remembered what speciality it is, I'm a combat medic" He nods, sitting down next to his sister
-
"Hmm... Then you're good at patching up problems, not fixing them permanently... I could give you a job here on the ship. Nobody would know you're here."
-
"Might as well, since I was sitting on my ass not doing much anyways"
-
"Alright. Well, if any patients come in, tell me, and if I'm not here, you can preform the procedure. I can teach you how."
-
"I can fix people up on my own you know, I even have my own personal Bacta recipe for emergenies"
-
"Yes, but do you know how to successfully transplant a heart or both their lungs?"
-
"Lungs.....that I can do with difficulty, heart.......haven't had to do that one, but I understand the concept"
-
"Exactly. We don't want things to happen with difficulty. Difficulty gets people killed."
-
"Hmph, didn't help that we were being attacked at the time...."
-
"That's doesn't matter. I've still got to teach you how to do other procedures."
-
"Fine, then I get to teach you how to repair a severed artery while under suppressing fire"
-
"I know how to do surgery while under fire. You forget that my brother is a little... Warlike. I would appreciate anything you can teach me about you, though. Since you're not actually human, you're an entire new species."
-
"Not really......Like I said, we're monsters, that's what the humans call things like us on our planet"
-
"Oh... You poor thing... You really think that, don't you? They've brainwashed you to think that... You're a person, Alex. Not a monster."
-
He started laughing "It's not even an insult, they call themselves that too" Beta had drifted off
-
"What? How does that work?"
-
"-blam!- if I know, they roll with it though"
-
"Hey, watch your mouth! You're only 15, you shouldn't be saying stuff like that!"
