	One of the things that assimilation imperfection tends to do is to magnify existing obsessions and compulsions. Perhaps in this realization is the key to prevent the malady in the first place, should the Collective ever recognize it. However, such is unlikely to occur as long as I am writing BorgSpace stories. Anyway, in this case, the Doctor story was fairly straightforward, with the most difficult aspect, in my estimation, showing the Jas personality and the hints on how it eventually mutated to the drone who sees the universe (and all within) through pet-colored glasses.

	==Summary==		==Summary==
	~~A summary~~ to be ~~inserted here~~		Jas is a recently graduated veterinarian on his way to a new job with the up and coming gas and volatile mining company [[CHON]]. Seffites, of which Jas is a typical specimen, are best described as pet-crazy; and, thus, most Seffite companies include vets on their payroll in order to minister to the many inevitable companions that employees own. With Jas is his good friend and fellow vet [[Plent]]. Finally, rounding out the ship's crew is [[Bruno]], the Seffite equivalent of a cat.

			Partway through the trek to their new home, Jas and Plent detour their ship to see the phenomenon known as [[Entropy]]. Entropy was constructed by a long-vanished race, and employs technology that warps time. While at Entropy, the pair witness a Borg cube exit transwarp too close to the construction, ending up as a smear across an asteroid which was in orbit around the phenomenon. After the startling happenstance, Jas and Plent convince each other that the wreckage represented a one-time chance to find trophies.

			They end up leaving the Entropy system not only with several toys, but the unconscious and heavily damaged Borg drone that Jas insists on saving.

			The drone is saved from termination by an extensive bout of surgery by the two vets. While damage to the body is either repaired or mitigated, a piece of shrapnel lodged in the brain is not touched. The Borg is secured in an alcove also saved from the wreckage; and when he wakes up, it becomes apparent that he is severed from the Collective. The drone, speaking in the singular, manages to inform Jas and Plent that his name is [[Dakeen Frimiz]]. Over the next several days, Dakeen - a member of the Ratif race - slowly recovers memories of his self before his assimilation even as nanites complete body repairs.

			To thank the two Seffites for saving him, Dakeen, a former engineer, embarks on a bout of tinkering to build devices in order to extend the functionality of the veterinarian ship. The gifts have a strangely Borg quality to them, but otherwise function as advertised. Unfortunately, one of the projects turns out to be a subspace booster that reconnects Dakeen to the Collective. In his defense, Dakeen was not fully aware of what he was constructing, but the end result was the same: Dakeen becomes increasingly subsumed by his Borg personality - 18 of 21, primary processor of unimatrix 002.

			The drone formerly known as Dakeen takes over the ship less than a day out from the vet's final destination. Although he could have assimilated both vets in their sleep, as is done to Plent, Dakeen wakes Jas long enough to apologize and to inform him that he will make an excellent medical drone.
