A Once and Future Dream...

Carson sat beside Rachel's bed. The last of the fever patients were released early yesterday, but Rachel still lay unconscious. The soft sound of the baby's heartbeat soothed Carson as he did research on his laptop at a roll-over table next to her bed. He sighed, looking over and gently brushing her hair away from her face. "I wish ye'd wake up ( Read more... )

A Starting Point, a good place to be...

Carson sighed as he watched Saera Parrish and some of the other women leave the infirmary. They were fine, the fever broke, no other effects. He spared a glance for Rachel, quiet and still on her bed, eyes closed to the world. To all appearances, she simply seemed asleep and a little flushed... He went into his office and saw that he had an ( Read more... )

Carson sighed and rubbed at his eyes. The words on the laptop screen were starting to blur this late at night. The first two women to fall ill were just about to be released, tomorrow morning if their fever came down that last half-degree. He'd spoken with all of them except Rachel, and Radek had input the data into a flowchart to track their ( Read more... )

Carson managed to keep a straight face the whole time he sat at his desk, all the way up through Shelly leaving the room. He was quite practiced by now at seeming to be perfectly calm, perfectly composed, and his normal researching self whenever people wanted to talk to him early on his shift. Once the door closed, he reached down and patted the ( Read more... )

Emergency announcements and emails

Carson sighed and sent out a priority red announcement.

TO: ALL Atlantis citizens/Personnel

PRIORITY RED - MUST READ

Thy skin, it glows from within, a heat to the touch...

Carson sighed. Two people came in this morning complaining of dizziness, bad enough to barely keep standing. Then, just before lunch, two others from Linguistics came in with high fevers. They had cooling blankets on them and were giving them antibiotics, but nothing seemed to help. He was fretting about the possibility of serious damage if ( Read more... )

War and Piece

John was off-world. Rodney and Radek were working late, as usual. Carson was actually home first for a change, which is why he was sitting in the fading light of the bedroom when Rachel came in. He watched as she started a little bit, then smiled nervously at him. He'd changed to casual clothes, leaving off his socks and shoes as he relaxed in ( Read more... )

Carson watched the video trials of the allergen treatment on the cattle. Well, they could hardly be called cattle. They looked like and tasted like beef, but they were the size of sheep. He'd requested 20. 1 had reacted poorly to the allergen compound injection and died. After an autopsy on that one, it was determined to not have been in the ( Read more... )
