((Counselor Strathmore's Office, Deck 5, USS Valkyrie-A))
Strathmore: I have no idea. I thought you might know. But please, take a seat. I want this to be a safe place for us to chat.
Ensign Zol took a seat in an armchair, while Arthur took a seat in his own chair and consulted his PADD for a moment.
Zol: Lovely artifacts, by the way. Bajoran, right? How did you come by them, if I may?
Arthur stood as soon as he sat and walked over to the shelf that they were placed upon.
Strathmore: Thank you. Yes, they are heirlooms from my stepfather’s family. I have a third of them here, my stepfather has a third of them on the Adirondack-A, and my mother has the rest back home on Bajor. Three parts, one family. I can look at them and know, despite the distance, I still have their love and support. ::A beat, before smirking:: I actually just got done getting them out of storage.
Zol: Have you been serving aboard the Valkyrie long?
Strathmore: Only for a few months. I did not think I would enjoy serving on a starship, but I have found it very rewarding.
Zol: I see! So, should we start the session? I don't really know where to begin with the evaluation - what would you like to know?
Arthur moved towards the replicator.
Strathmore: Of course. Well, I’d like to start with two questions. How are you feeling and what would you like to talk about?
Zol: Response
Arthur arrived at the replicator.
Strathmore: Hot chocolate.
Hot chocolate materialized in a small tea cup and atop a plate. Arthur picked it up and placed it on the table between their chairs.
Zol: Response
Arthur sat back down and placed his PADD in his lap.
Strathmore: Tell me more.
