Re: Message from Dr. Muldoon
Posted By: iamalex13Date: 3/13/11 9:56 p.m.

In Response To: Message from Dr. Muldoon (Hive)


: bzzt! I have applied your language filters.

: Captain,

: I'm honestly surprised. I've made more progress with CN Raschad in the first
: ten minutes than I have in all our sessions since we got in system. David
: has shown a great willingness to work with me on this matter. I suggested
: a sleeping aid and anti-anxiety medication, and he actually accepted.

: He's scared by everything that's going on. People are starting to get twitchy
: and nervous. There's been talk of ghosts again amongst the crew. People
: are starting to walk on edge. You know it as well as I do. He's seeing it
: and the memories are coming to the forefront of his mind.

: Considering what all he's been through, I find him rather well-adjusted. His
: PTSD is very well controlled, and his emotions are perfectly normal. As is
: his anxiety. However, he seems most focused on channeling this anxiety
: towards beneficial avenues. Such as organizing the matches tonight.
: Keeping people calm, in good spirits, and able to work efficiently are his
: highest priorities. The plans for escape are simply idle reflex.

: So long as we keep him away from violence, I am clearing him for active duty.
: If I hear of even so much as a fistfight, though, I'm pulling him back
: into my office and off the duty roster until I can confirm that he hasn't
: slipped any.

: I know you're going to be tempted to put him on ice. I'd strongly advise
: against that. We've agreed that revealing his past to the crew is a bad
: idea. Especially now. The only other public excuse is medical, and if if
: it's believed that Petty Officer Rushford caused him a bad enough injury
: to force him to go into a tank rather than treated here... I'll leave the
: implications up to you to work out. David is well-liked by the crew, and
: Hive tells me that there are already murmurings about him having to go to
: medical.

: I attached a transcript of the worst of it. After this he calmed down
: considerably and spoke honestly. He even described, in vivid detail, some
: of what he went through without displaying any signs of flashbacks. Simply
: depression. In the interests of doctor/patient confidentiality, however,
: I'm not sharing no matter how much you might ask. He won't endanger the
: mission at this time, and that's what you're after, isn't it?

: Also, can you tell me who the hell had the brilliant idea of putting him in
: this fight?

: LT Muldoon, Robert

: Raschad: So I start out by elbowing him in the throat. Immediately I kick the
: ref in the jimmies. That gives me enough time to get the gloves off before
: Gunther gets in the ring. Step out of his swing, grab his arm, thumb his
: left eye. Sammy will be the next in the ring. Jesus, I feint with my
: right, then give a left cross to Wolfman's face. That'll surprise her
: enough that she won't see the footsweep. Backfist to Masten, pull behind
: him, get his sidearm, ground him. Shoot Banks. Shoot Sammy. Shoot Werner.
: Shoot anybody else who rushes the ring. Move ASAP to the aft. Take 13-9-C
: down towards four. Deal with any opposition I meet along the way. Manual
: any doors. Manual the door to four behind me, lodge the gun in the works
: so they can't open it. Cut out Hive, manual a timer. Strip. Get in my
: tank. Get frozen and launched.
: Muldoon: You didn't do that, though.
: Raschad: I BLAMing planned it out!
: Muldoon: Did you want to?
: Raschad: BLAM no! Why the BLAM do you think I threw that godBLAM mother
: BLAMing fight? Why do you think I'm BLAMing here right BLAMing now instead
: of BLAMing finding a godBLAM bottle of hard stuff and drinking myself into
: next godBLAM week? It's not like I wanted to BLAMing see you!
: Muldoon: But yet you came.
: Raschad: Only because I'm not BLAMing stupid! The Cap ain't stupid! I was
: gonna get sent to see you no matter what! Why not save the middleman a bit
: of walking and come my BLAMing self?
: Muldoon: Is that the only reason?
: Raschad: ...No. No it's not. I... I want something to help me sleep. No
: dreams, no nightmares. No skulking along bulkheads with BLAMing monsters
: that used to be my buddies trying to do god knows what to me.
: Muldoon: You're tired.
: Raschad: You have no idea. Every time somebody says to me, “You must have
: seen some action,” I just... What the hell am I supposed to say? I saw my
: reflection and it looked like a monster who did everything that I did so I
: tried ripping my face off with my own two hands?
: Muldoon: You weren't in your right mind.
: Raschad: You can say that again.
: Muldoon: No. You know what I mean. Nobody on that ship was in their right
: mind. The only people who were, you saved. You had the presence of mind to
: save them. And yourself. You fought as little as possible. You know that.
: Raschad: Yeah.
: Muldoon: For what you went through, you've come so far. You haven't been
: medicated in years. You're proud of that.
: Raschad: That's what scares me. I mean... If it's only natural that I plot my
: escape without even realizing it... What if I actually want to act on it?
: What if I actually start to want to try and escape? Then what happens if I
: give in to that wanting? Do I start braining people?
: Muldoon: It won't happen again.
: Raschad: Why not? The tech's better, but what's to say something won't go all
: goatBLAM and I won't end up in a situation that you only see in video
: games again?
: Muldoon: Because. You won't let it happen. Will you?
: Raschad: ...This is the part where I sit down and we start the psyche, isn't
: it?
: Muldoon: No. This is the part where you sit down and I help you.

Hive, is there any chance I can get an updated CSV on CN Raschad? I'm not familiar with his somewhat "checkered" of a past. I am allowed to do this right? I'm not going to stir up a flurry of ONI activity for asking about one of my own crew am I?
