General Edwards: "Bloody cross-dimensional duplicates."
Medic: "Sir, is your AAVRAS flaring again?"
GE (gritting teeth): "YES. And I can feel my IQ dropping as we speak. I'm...starting to think some of my recent command decisions need to be revisit."
M (wincing): "Sir, there haven't been any problems yet...Caffeine has a proven ability to raise IQ. I can prescribe some an industrial strength dosage."
GE (pausing, eyeing CM dubiously): "Since when can you write prescriptions?!"
M (affronted): "Sir. I am a *Special Forces* medic. I can perform *brain surgery.* With a rusty K-Bar. Successfully."
GE: "Right, and forgetting that just tells it me it's past time to take steps." Edwards moves to the intercom. "Bridge, page Captain Grant for me, on the double!"
Captain Grant (a few seconds later): "What can I do for you, General?"
GE: "Captain. Congratulations on your promotion to brevet Commodore. You've got command of the task force until we get this AAVRAS crap locked down. I'll continue in an advisory position."
CG (aghast): "TR, you can't do this to me!"
GE (brushing hands): "It's done, Vince. If you need me I'll be in my bunk." Edwards cuts the intercom, and turns to the medic, holding out his hand. "Caffeine dosage. And weapons grade sedatives. *I'm* taking a nap."
Several minutes later, Security reported that General Edwards was indeed fast asleep, with a smile of beatific happiness on his face. The whole task force breathed a sign of relief. The General was a well-respected leader, and his recent health crisis had worried his whole command.
