[ Spock is not sleeping, as it is not a lie to say she requires less sleep than humans. ]

Dr. McCoy is otherwise engaged for most missions, unless directly ordered. Most curious.

Allow me a moment to review your record.

[ It does not actually take her a minute because all Spock needs to do is gather the name and recall Carys' record, which is simple enough. She knows the records of most officers on the ship, and it takes almost no time to compare her proficiency against the needs of the mission. ]

You are acceptable. This is your first away mission, I notice.

[A more nervous young doctor might be checking for a reply every few seconds, but Carys refused. It had often seemed to her the more impatient you got for a Vulcan reply the more they seemed to make you wait, even if they had no way of knowing you were slowly developing a twitch.

So Carys put the old trays in the replicator for them to be recycled, she began to redress the beds all in that short time, and then her communicator buzzed at her workstation.

Dr McCoy was probably just glad Spock had replied before Carys recleaned and rearranged the entire sickbay.

Not that she was nervous. At all.]

I am glad. Yes, Commander, though I have been off-world many times before I joined Starfleet. My mother was a Doctor as well.

Traveling off-world with family is not the same experience as an away mission. I shall send you the mission briefing. Familiarize yourself with it before we embark.

Of course, Commander. I'll be sure to memorise it.

Thank you.
