Finn considered Doc's proposition, but only for a short while. Then and nodded.
"Of course, doctor, we'd be happy to take your researchers with us. We'll need to do some surveying in Earhart anyway, so having a skilled researchers aboard sounds like a good idea, but please, let us at least cover your expenses for the training and the facility. I will respect your stance on not taking money as a direct payment for your services, but I wouldn't feel right knowing you have to use the funding and donations meant for your medical facilites to fulfill my request instead."
He than sat down, finally put away the long empty whisky glass and smiled.
"As for the friendship, well, I consider anyone who provides medical care to everyone indiscriminately, free of charge, a friend. I've seen all too well how corporations treat medical care as for profit bussines in the houses, uncaring to the plights of those unable to afford it, so it's refreshing to see someone actually upholding the spirit of the profession. So yes, you can call me, and by extension our group, your friend, doctor."
He paused for a moment and quickly checked a small screen he had on a wristband.
"Well, since it seems like we have an agreemend, I believe what remains in that matter are the boring details. Unfortunately, it looks like it will take some time before we'll have the ship ready, so how about I'll send you a message whan that's done and we'll deal with the specifics then? And regarding the training, I'll arrange for the transportation of our people when you're ready for them, does that sound good to you?"
