"Just how large is your ship? We do have ladders between the decks, but they're generally closed off, save for engineers and emergencies when the turbolifts aren't functional." Julian couldn't dream of moving around a Galaxy-class ship using the Jefferies tubes, much less DS9, being so much larger. It would take forever, and it would be so incredibly easy to get lost and end up in the warp nacelle or some other ridiculous place.

"We do have more extensive holographic technology even just eight years from now. They were even considering using me as a model for a long-term medical hologram, that could serve as a doctor on certain missions, and there's Emergency Medical Holograms as well."

Julian is something of a motormouth, if Dylan hadn't noticed that yet.
