satisfied with the readings that he was getting. The help from Doctor’s Penn and Teller had been invaluable, but came at a cost. They would only help him if he drank with them. Now his liver was paying the price. Magillans do not metabolize alcohol the
same way, and the intestinal distress he’d been having was… to say the least… embarrassing. </span></p>

and Bohb was able to leave him in main engineering while he worked in the lab. He stood up with a smile and felt a little pressure in his abdomen. With a release of the pressure, his body relaxed but the room filled with a foul odor. He probably should
go see Dr. Quinna about this, but she had also been busy, and to be honest he didn’t want to involve a strange new doctor.</span></p>

focus again. He really wanted to try both of the devices he had developed but he knew that he should get permission for the captain. Or at least he should know about it, since he was the adhoc parent/brother of Luma.</span></p>
