[ we are here in the medbay where io is just hunched over their desk. some of the other members of the senior crew are rotating through, but it looks like currently it's io's shift so they're just kinda staring at a cup of coffee and dissociating it's that kinda day. just turning their eyes a bit to see him enter. ]
Everything's uncertain, every time feels like it's something new.
[ brow furrowed. ]
It's like a time bomb, it feels. We've never not... "caught" someone before. Though she's essentially admitted to it, the fact that she wasn't chosen for detainment is going to make this unusual, I think.
At least [ softer, angrier ] however... this ship wants to run things. That's how it feels.
Same thing I'd do back home. All that I can in the moment. Make sure she's treated like a person, not a prisoner. Just because she's done what she's done, and she has to be looked after... she can at least be comfortable despite the hell she's been through.
I don't know what the right thing is. That's - why I was asking.
If we don't know whether she'll hurt someone again, I - I don't mean to imply that it's her fault. She is as much a victim as anyone else. But if it were me, I would want someone to stop me if there was even a chance I would act again.
It isn't her fault, none of this is... she was... she was not herself. Still doesn't seem it. For the time being, we're going to keep from harming anyone else. [ troubled in addition ] And herself. We'll be here, but whether it helps or not is uncertain.
As much as I hate it, we'll have to see what tomorrow brings. No one's going to sleep tonight.

...Can something be done for her?
no subject
... Don't know. It's uncertain, still. So far, she's stabilized, but how long that lasts will take time to see.
[ quietly worried ]
I don't know what this means.
no subject
Do you know if it's likely that she'll hurt someone again? Or is that uncertain as well?

Harley's always saying it's haunted. It's a metaphor, don't take it too seriously.

...What would you do? If you were not sure whether she could be helped, and not knowing runs the risk that she could hurt someone again.

Why? What would you do?
