[PNPC] LtCmdr. Jaskhaa - Need Is An Interesting Word

[Genkos Adea]

((Counsellor's Office - Deck 7, USS Artemis-A))

Jashkaa pursed her lips - her door’s proximity detector (specially designed to ensure no interruptions to her private sessions) had announced that someone was outside, but they had not hit the chime. Her lips were pursed in a subtle show of amusement - she could see from her PADD that her next patient was Gila Sadar, and she knew from past experience that Gila tended to arrive early. It spoke to her inner anxiety - trying to control the few things she could actually exert control over. She watched as Gila reached out to touch the chime, and Jashkaa stood up.

As she did so, she spritzed the room with her most relaxing scent, and then tied her hair back in a bun.

Jashkaa: Enter.

Gila entered after Jashkaa announced her permission, standing at attention at the sight of Orion woman. Her green face was now passive, the subtle show of amusement long since vanished - it did not pay to express emotions in the earliest parts of one’s session.

Sadar: Th-Thank you for agreeing to meet me on such short notice, Counselor.

Jashkaa turned her chair to face Gila, and gestured to the Mizarian to take a seat on the couch.

Jashkaa: Please, first names only in my office, Gila. What’s the urgency of this particular appointment?

Sadar: Well, I, uhh, I need to go on a scientific survey in a few days, so I needed to ensure I got a, uhh, ‘clean bill of health’? ::ruminates on whether she got the proverb correctly:: I filled out the forms you forwarded me.

Gila smiled and nodded, waving one hand to the reclining couch whilst receiving a PADD from Gila with the other. 

Jashkaa: How did you find them, Gila? Were they easy to complete?

She scanned the PADD for a moment, before placing it gently on her desk and turning to face her patient. She crossed her legs and sat forward, her hands folded in her lap. 

Sadar: Response

Jashkaa: I see. Well that makes sense. And this survey - there are plenty of doctors aboard, why does it “need” to be you?

Sadar: Response

"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
