Object
Sickbay Security Hand Phasers
Palm‑sized Starfleet emitters with brushed alloy casings and a small circular lens that clicks faintly when powered. Three security officers grip them at chest level, fingers tense on tactile triggers, beams set to stun/low. The weapons radiate a quiet hum and occasional indicator pulse; guards train their aim on the creature-turned-Anya, ready to disable or intimidate but not fire without orders.

Purpose
Portable energy weapons issued to Starfleet security for nonlethal incapacitation or, if authorized, lethal defense; here used to deter, contain, and enforce confinement of a biohazardous threat.
Significance
These phasers concretize the clash between care and control: they provide immediate physical enforcement that undercuts medical containment efforts, raise the stakes of Pulaski’s protective stance, and embody Starfleet’s authority to compel quarantine when ethics and safety collide.
