"Well it's..." He smiles "You probably haven't heard yet: Noriye and I are adopting a Cardassian baby."

*Serys stares at him blankly.*
"Noriye is what?"

"Noriye is adopting a Cardassian baby," he repeats. "And so am I. Anyway...that's not why I called. The baby is not sleeping; she's been crying all night, and we can't get her to calm down."

=^= I'm a doctor; I don't sleep much anyway. *laughs* Trayr out. =^=
*Serys cuts the commlink. A few minutes later she knocks at the door to the Kira house.*

"I'm not sure. A good few hours I think. Noriye's at the end of her rope."

*Noriye walked out just as the doctor asked this question. The baby was still wailing.*
"Hi, Serys. I'm sorry about this."

"You think I ever got sleep on the Enterprise? *chuckles* It's all right, really."
*She runs a scan on the baby with her tricorder but finds nothing unusual. After a few moments, she touches the girl's forehead.*
"She's freezing."

Noriye nodded. "I kinda figured that. But why? It's warm in here, and we've got her covered up..."

"No, I mean that's what's wrong with her. Cardassians, especially young Cardassians, are uncomfortably cold at temperatures where we're comfortable. Cardassia Prime is a very...warm planet."

"So you mean we just called you over here because she's cold?!" Noriye rolls her eyes.
