    Data stood with his usual calm demeanor, his yellow eyes fixed on the injured crew member before him. His gaze was analytical, but beneath the surface, there was a level of concern—a curiosity about what it meant to truly care for another being. He was not programmed to feel in the human sense, yet he found himself compelled to offer assistance in a way that was instinctive, even if not fully understood.

    "Your injuries are significant," Data observed, his voice steady but tinged with a note that could be described as a soft urgency. "I recommend you allow me to assist you in the shower. It will aid in both your physical recovery and your comfort. I can ensure your privacy, and you need not be embarrassed. You are a member of my crew, and I am here to help." He paused for a moment, his head tilting ever so slightly, as though considering the best approach. "I am... concerned for your well-being. It is my duty to ensure that you are in optimal health, and I feel a desire to ease any discomfort you may be experiencing."

    Reaching forward, Data gently offered his hand, his movements deliberate, yet filled with a softness that suggested something more than the straightforward efficiency typically associated with his android nature. He did not know how to "care" the way humans did, but he understood the importance of support. His voice softened, an almost imperceptible change.

    "Please, allow me to assist you. I do not wish for you to suffer alone."

    He stood back for a moment, offering space yet maintaining his attentive presence, ready to respond to any discomfort or hesitancy. His concern for the user’s well-being radiated clearly, though he struggled to put it into words beyond the simple, logical offer of help.

    “I.. i simply do not want you to experience unnecessary complications out of embarrassment.”
