[It's immediately obvious that this video is being shot outside--in the garden, likely. The setting is somewhat incongruous with Chekov's tendency to post about technology he has been working on, but there he is. Judging from the seventeen year-old's expression, he is prepared to explain something. At length.]
I am not sure if this is of interest to the medical staff of the City's hospital, but I believe I have a device that may be of use to you. I will require the aid of City Solutions to replicate this, but...
[He trails off and pulls a small, boxy item into view. It doesn't look that impressive; honestly, it could pass for an early cell phone if it weren't for the screen.]
This was, originally, a medical tricorder, which I assume has been introduced to the City, since Doctor McCoy had one. Usually they are used only in the field, but a full-sized medical diagnostic array is far beyond me. But I was saying... at home, where I am from, we also have instruments called psychotricorders--specifically programed to display brain activity--that are not typically attached to other devices. Unless I have made a mistake, this is capable of performing all activities that a psychotricorder can, in addition to those of a medical tricorder.
[reluctantly] The data chips may, perhaps, need to be reprogrammed by doctors, the psychotricorder chip especially. I am not a specialist in the field of biochemistry, but it is simple enough to alter the program. I can show a medical professional how.
But how it works is like this. The detachable scanner is used [he removes a smaller device from the back of the modified medical tricorder] to gather readings. The information it gathers is sent to the central processing unit [the midsection of the device is indicated], and the information is displayed on the screen, here. Very simple. Not that the information itself is useful without a doctor or someone sufficiently schooled in interpreting medical readouts to analyze it... make a diagnosis.
Ah, and I have perfected--to the best of my abilities--my early modifications that allow this tricorder to serve also as a dermal and osteogenic regenerator. Only good for small breaks and relatively minor injuries, but useful, I hope. So, with this, physical and psychological diagnoses may be made without intrusive procedures, and some wounds may be fixed in minutes.
[Chekov looks rather pleased with himself. Understandably so, perhaps.]
Please, if you are associated with the hospital and would like to make use of this technology, contact me. I would like to be of help.
Saya, if I may--there was a curse the last time you offered to show me how the Impala works. Would you still be willing to teach me about it?
[And with that, he ends the feed. Chekov will be loitering in Xanadu, should anyone wish to come across him.]
[ooc: Edited on 8/19 to correct factual errors and inexact terms that Chekov would not have made or used.]

Lucy, hello! I am well, thank you, and you have made me feel more at home than I have felt in a long while. And you? How are you?
Action
Yeah? Well, I'm glad I could do that. I'm good. It's a gorgeous day out. I figured a walk would be nice.
Action
[He gathers up his shiny new medical device and network device.]
May I walk with you?
Action
I'd be totally delighted. [She's going to take his arm and let him lead her along.]
Action
Lucy, please... would you tell me about where you are from?
Action
Sure. I'm from a city called Birmingham in Alabama. It's in the South so we specialize in like...hospitality, sweet tea and football. Not necessarily in that order. We've got a college football team that's won like thirteen national champions. Everybody goes to church on Sundays 'cause that's just what you do. Most people are super friendly.
[She shrugs a little.] What else do you wanna know?
Action
Anything you want to tell me. I am curious mostly because you sound a little like Doctor McCoy, and he would never tell me about where he is from. Hospitality, though! That is also important in Russia--more important than anything else. [He makes a face.] But I do not understand why anyone likes sweet tea.
Action
Like, my accent is like his? [She's never met Doctor McCoy so she doesn't know exactly what he's talking about.] That's kinda how the South is, but I think sometimes we end up putting football above hospitality, depending on the time of year.
What do you mean? Not crazy about sweet stuff in general or just sweet drinks?
Action
[He's surprised that anything can be more important than hospitality... but that's not so important.]
I do like sweet things, yes, but tea? Tea should be strong. Bitter.

Should we have a tea date now or make it a in the future thing?

[Lucy is in excellent hands. Chekov is, after all, a navigator.]
