After her shift, Marlene found herself in the lounge, as she did most nights, on any ship or station she had been assigned to. The lounge staff and her had become quite good friends during all of her postings. Though she had only been here a short while, this was no exception.

She had barely been seated at the bar, when a large glass of bourbon was in front of her, neat. Her poison of choice. The green skinned woman casually looked around the room and some of the cadets enjoying some down time. What better way to set an example to these fine young people than to show them the benefits of a good stiff drink. Never something she would prescribe officially, but always therapeutic in its own right.

The doors to the lounge opened and Liadra stepped in a few steps before stopping to survey the place. Her grey eyes surveyed the place and eventually found Marlene. Though they had yet to properly meet thus far, her face opened up into a wide grin and the Denobulan made her way over to the bar, opting for a stool to the CMO’s right. Off duty, her the fabric of her thin floor length black skirt fluttered as she walked, and the pink top she wore complemented her current hair colour.

“Well, good evening! I was hoping to run into you soon. I’m Liadra!” she said cheerily as she turned on her stool to face Marlene.

“Hello,” Marlene said dryly, taking a quick glance at the woman before taking another sip of her drink.

“You’re the counselor, aren’t you?” Marlene asked, although she knew the answer already. She hadn’t yet made her way to do the official check-in with the counselor as was standard procedure. Having arrived to find a dead body awaiting her made circumstances of her arrival on board a little unorthodox.

“That I am!” Liadra said cheerily, unfazed by Marlene’s manner, nor the fact that the other woman didn’t introduce herself as well. “So, how are you?” She took an individual approach to getting to know people, though at the same time, she had her own generally effusive manner that usually provoked a set of possible reactions. Those reactions would tell her a lot about that particular person.

Marlene let out a sigh. “I’m well,” She took a hefty swig of her bourbon. “Things have certainly calmed down since I arrived to find a corpse in my Sickbay as soon as I walked in the door.” She gave her shoulders a shrug, tossing her wavy brown hair back over her shoulder. She gave the interesting woman next to her a look over.

“Probably not the most ideal of boarding experiences. Was that one of your worst?” Liadra asked.

“I’m sure things on an Academy ship keep you quite busy,” She mused, finishing the last of the liquid in her glass and setting the empty glass down on the bar. She signaled to the bartender for a refill.

“Indeed,” the counsellor said with a laugh. “Between crew boarding evals and the continual work with those that have adjustment issues, or what not, I’m finding my down time less than my last assignment.”

Marlene smirked. “Have you looked at my file?” She asked curiously. The bartender returned with her drink and she took it and sipped it. “For boarding evaluations I guarantee I will give any one of these cadets a run for their money.” Her smile widened and she gave the Counselor a wink.
