Feel free to reach out to him whenever you'd like. You can say I sent you. I don't think he'll have much luck turning you away.
[Sometimes Stephen's ego can get the best of him when someone offers to help, but Julian's already proved that he's competent in just a few replies.]
I'll provide samples when it's time. For what it's worth, passing the solution from one person to another also involves their bone marrow. I would rather not undergo an extraction, but I understand it comes to that.
[Because this is just a thing that happens in her world.]
The limiting factor right now is me, considering I don't have access to the equipment I need. I'm going to take a guess that our people don't have a covert laboratory with the type of advanced equipment I'd use to analyze a blood specimen.

But that's a relief. I don't think we'll need to worry about replicating it for a while yet.

To be quite honest, I'd like to avoid anything as invasive as a bone marrow biopsy.

[Stephen has become more humble, at least with regards to her. It probably helps that she got a literal glow up by six years to help out a bit.]
I'll agree on the marrow biopsy. But sometimes things can get pretty desperate back home.

The latter might be more feasible.
[Clarke doesn't have any quibbles about "breaking the law" in this world because money is stupid.]
no subject
I'm not sure I'm entirely comfortable with that plan.
[Julian does not feel that stealing expensive laboratory equipment upholds Starfleet values, despite his good intentions for the equipment.]
no subject
[Because she'd ask Loki to do it.]
It's something we need. You know that as well as I do.

[ He hates this. ]
Is there no other way? No other grants we could apply for? Do things like that even exist?
Although my lack of any credentialing here would be a hindrance to that...
[ He really hates this. ]
no subject
But I'll look into legal avenues.
[She'll try.]

[ Moral crisis averted for now. ]
