Rogue waved off the apology. "I'm sorry for taking up space like this," she told the doctor. "Once the stuff Dr. Beckett gave me kicks in, I'll be out of your hair so you can concentrate on more important things," she added with a nod to the curtained off Wraith.

"I heard you tell Dr. Beckett that you didn't want anything stronger than Tylenol," Keller started with a frown. "There a reason for that?" Jennifer Keller wasn't one to skimp on the questions, something she and Rodney had in common.

Rogue gave a somewhat uncomfortable smile and explained, "Strong painkillers have a tendency to make me sicker than they are right now. I'd rather deal with a bit of pain than that." It wasn't entirely a lie, but she didn't add that narcotics also tended to break down her mental shields and let the worst of the psyches in her mind run wild and unchecked. That wasn't something she wanted to have to work through in front of these people.
