Chapel adds this new information to El's file and looks back to her, prepared to tell her that she's far removed from her own time. The girl's outright murderous expression makes her rethink that particular plan of action. Anger is a perfectly normal response to a situation like this, but something about El renders her anger almost... frightening. Frightening in a way that a malnourished teenager shouldn't be.
"Thank you," Chapel responds, already taking a few steps back. "You've had a long night. You can rest here until the captain is prepared to meet you. There's a shower room behind the door to your right, along with a clothing dispenser." And with that, Chapel excuses herself to a desk on the other side of the medbay. She has a good view of the entire room, as well as both exits, from that vantage point; El won't be able to go anywhere undetected.
Chapel hasn't forgotten about medbay's other occupant in her haste to put some distance between herself and El. "Mr Chekov, you may finish your report here or in your quarters. If you choose your quarters, I'd advise you to stay there until you're called."
"Yes sir," Chekov answers, getting to his feet. He looks from El to Chapel, somewhat perplexed by Chapel's behavior. The girl seems angry, yes, but it's not like the doctor to walk away from a patient, especially one who is experiencing some kind of emotional turmoil. He cautiously approaches El.
"The technology here is likely not what you are used to," he says. She'll likely be able to figure out the shower and the dispenser -- medbay has a traditional water shower, and the clothing dispenser is a simple touchscreen menu -- but it's bound to be a little strange for her. "Would you like me to show you how the facilities are operated? Or, ah... if you want to know more about where you are, there is a very good library that you can access from any pad."
Chekov sets the datapad down on the chair that Chapel had previously occupied (he already opened a guest account for El while he was pretending to work on his report, in the off chance that she'd want to use the device herself) and then steps back awkwardly. Chekov feels responsible for the girl -- he is, after all, the reason she's here and not secured in Starbase 17's brig -- and he'd like to make sure she's comfortable before heading to his quarters, but he also doesn't want to make her angrier.
it's been a rough day!
