PNPC Lieutenant Kyle Morgan - THIS IS NOT RIGHT

[Kali Nicholotti]

Improv at its best...that time when you're running a body swap mission and someone tags someone that wasn't planned for or swapped...

 

(( Unfamiliar Quarters, USS Excalibur ))

Kyle woke up on the floor. He was in someone’s quarters, but they weren’t his. Something was very wrong.

An itch!! Behind the ear! 

Scratch central.

Relief.

Okay. Next?

Kinda thirsty. Could probably wait for now. 

Okay, fine. Report for duty? See what I missed?

Sure.

He stood up, but for some reason, his height didn’t seem right. Something was strange, indeed. He’d figure it out when he got to Sickbay.

(( Sickbay, USS Excalibur ))

On the way to Sickbay, people were scattering about. He’d heard the call to quarters, but that still didn’t explain why everyone kept giving him funny looks. It wasn’t until he entered the Excalibur’s Sickbay that it hit him…

He wasn’t him – he was looking at him!

Oh no way, no way, no way.

Standing alongside him was Commander MacKenzie, Commander Yalu, Lieutenants Sherlock and Sirin, and Ensign Dakora. But after a moment, they all left except for Commander MacKenzie. None of them seemed to notice him or acknowledge his existence.

Rude.

His mentor would certainly say something, but she seemed to pay him no mind either.

Right. That’s because HE WASN’T HIM.

And the him he knew wasn’t saying much of anything.

…it didn’t even seem like the lights were on.

K. Morgan (as Toto): WOOF!

Addison looked down at him, though from the way she stared at him, he didn’t think she was really Addison anymore, either… 

Maybe he wasn’t insistent enough.

K. Morgan (as Toto): WOOF!

Tiberius (as MacKenzie): Response

The Weimaraner jumped up on Addison and started nudging her with his nose.

K. Morgan (as Toto): WOOF!!! Woof-woof (beat) woof.

Tiberius (as MacKenzie): Response

 

Tag, and TBC!
