LtCmdr. Jashkaa - Round in Circles

((Counselor's Office - Deck 7, USS Artemis-A))
Jashkaa, her legs crossed at the ankles, stared at Gila for a moment. The Mizarian seemed a little lost for words, stunned by Jashkaa’s suggestions, so instead she tried to elucidate her words.
Jashkaa: What I’m saying, suggesting even, is that perhaps you are bending too much to go with the flow. Bend too much, and you’ll break. Tell me, if you had all the power of a Commodore, what is one thing you would like to change?
Her file suggested that Gila was perhaps getting more comfortable with the idea of moving up the ranks.
Sadar: C-C-C-C-! I, uhh- I don’t- ::pauses as she considers the question:: ... Make medical personnel non-combatants? ::pause:: We already sort of are…
Jashkaa: A sort of conscientious objector?
Gila shrugged.
Sadar: In times of crisis, every Starfleet Officer is considered military personnel. When we were overtaken by the crew of the Desdemona, I... I was part of a team intended to retake the Bridge, and... I was given a phaser. We couldn’t afford to appear unarmed. I never shot it - I don’t think I would’ve hit anything had I tried, certainly not anything conducive to a peaceful takeover - but…
Jashkaa: Still you were needed to bear arms. Perhaps you should embrace it, as a unfamiliar activity. If you were more confident in your skills, you could be more certain on your abstinence.
Gila sighed and Jashkaa tried not to follow suit. The woman was amazing at veering from topic to topic like a dom-jot ball in a particular vicious game.
Sadar: The issue with the assassination could’ve been avoided, had I been more adamant, couldn’t it? None of us wanted to go through it, but because it felt like our only option, we all just accepted that this was what had to be done. ::thinks:: The senior officer made a call. And that was it.
Jashkaa: Except it was not it. If it were it, you would not be here.
Sadar: Response
Jashkaa stared at the woman for a moment, and wondered idly if she’d ever met someone less suited to service on a starship.
Jashkaa: Questioning orders doesn’t make you a bad person Gila.

"You know, I'm really easy to get along with most of the time, but I don't like bullies and I don't like threats, and I don't like you, Culluh. You can try and stop us from getting to the truth but I promise you that if you do I will respond with all the 'unique technologies' at my command." - Kathryn Janeway
