The voice catches him as Mccoy slowly turns around to give his attention towards the stranger. A rather first time someone ever called him as a ‘Herr Docktor’. “Y’mean Doctor, right?” He gave her a smile, trying to be polite, after all, he learns better than to not answer a lady. “I am ‘n y’must be part of the crew?” Slowly walking over towards her to face them, extending his hand out for the other to take. To learn more about the colleges around him would be the first in socializing.
“It’s fine. Just wasn’t used t’someone callin’ me Doktor. It’s a pleasure to meet y’Ms. Angela Ziegler, y’can call me Mccoy. Leonard Mccoy. I hope y’are settlin’ in the hospital??? T’be honest, I find the stuff t’be a bit dark ages, but once gettin’ use t’th’ supplies it was a simple learnin’.” Curiosity getting the better of him and wondering where this person came from; what time period?? Seeing how a lot of folks in this city was either far from advance or close to his time line.
❝...Err, yes! Yes I did.❞ Angela chuckles, more at her own expense than Mr. Mccoy’s. This wasn’t Switzerland, this wasn’t Switzerland. How many times would she have to say it for it to sink in? It’s too bad that this city wasn’t teaching her mother tongue at that new school of theirs. If she wasn’t a doctor, she’d might as well be doing that - considering that Reinhardt is the probably the only one who can maintain a full conversation with her in German.
❝Herr - I mean, Mr. Mccoy, it’s a pleasure to be meeting you.❞ She really had to stop doing this. Correcting herself, she adds on: ❝I hope I didn’t offend you with the “Doktor” business!❞ Doctor and Doktor sounded basically the same to her, but this was Angela. Not everyone was Ms. Zielger.
Ah, well. None of that was important. Culture shock aside, Angela made up her mind that Mccoy was someone she could be friendly with. He seemed amicable enough Maybe this was the start of a professional friendship...
...The man’s question surprises her. He was already asking about she was doing? That’s really nice of him. ❝And yes, I’m settling in quite well, thank you! I... MAY have gotten lost on my first day, but you know how it goes! New hospital, new layout.❞
Okay, sure, maybe the tech here was a LITTLE BIT outdated, but she had saved people’s lives in worse conditions. She had field-medic experience, for goodness’ sakes. If anyone could make this work, it was her. Doctor Angela “Mercy” Zieger was a angel on the battlefield and she should certainly be one here.
...Hopefully. ❝Ah, I was just noticing that. Still, I think it’s good enough for now, don’t you? I come from a future where applied nanobiology has been put into place and is used for healing people with chronic pain or illness. I was the one who pioneered it. It would be funny if I could pioneer my same technology here.❞
