For the third time that night, Julian woke up when his bedmate coughed violently.

“That's it. I'm taking you to the infirmary!”

Another cough shook the bed.

“You'll do no such thing! I've spent more than enough time there, thank you very much!”

Julian sighed.

“Will you at least let me scan you?”

Garak grumbled, defeated.

“Fine. But I'm not going unless I'm dying.”

In seconds, the tricorder was run over Garak.

“I could always lie and say that you're dying.”

“It's just a shame you're such a terrible liar, then.”

The tricorder closed with an annoyed snap.

“You'll live.”
