[The Doctor is pointedly going to ignore the sex sounding things going on.]

Dallas Winston, by the by, has departed the Barge. [And likely went back to being a ghost, according to what he heard last. He's been gone for a while, he just hasn't wanted to talk about it. He never likes talking about people leaving.] He was a good lad.

Mark Hoffman mentioned... a lack of good stories to be told. I'd like to hear a few if you have them. They needn't be about an occupation. Just good stories. Or good experiences, if you're willing to share.

Wasting time and hurting each other, that's what. Okay, lemme see...

Here's a decent one. I was hurt really bad a few years ago and I spent a year in Africa recovering with my doctor and friend, Leslie. We were traveling with Doctors Without Borders, giving free medical treatment to underprivileged kids and villagers with no one else to turn to but local shamans and some doctors with little or no official training.

It's kind of funny, I'm horrible at languages, and all I really learned in the whole time I was there was the words for a few animals, but everyone was really nice. I'd go out into the plains sometimes with the kids, collecting plants that Leslie or the villagers could use.

The rest of the story isn't as nice, but those kids and those villagers really helped me get back on my feet.

It's a very kind act, though. I appreciate hearing about it.

It was mutually beneficial. Even if I didn't do much doctoring. [ She totally appreciates the praise, either way. ]
