Did androids possess feelings? Could they be hurt or insulted? Did they cultivate dreams and wishes, grand ambitions? Or were they merely synthetic processors of data. Walking and talking in/out terminals masquerading as sentient? Eve did not know the answers to these questions. But data gathered from her previous starship assignments indicated that she greatly valued any time spent in conversation with the ship’s counsellor.

And so, it was for that reason that Eve chose to present herself at the office of Lieutenant Guy Freeman, looking not for a psychological assessment but merely a…chat.

Guy didn’t even knew aboard the ship there was an android. Or maybe he was aware of it, but suddenly forgot about its existence in the whole ship like the things he didn’t cared too much or the letters that his old-flame were sent to him periodically, which as he knew already from the Ark Angel, those were just to apologize about the things of the past but that Guy couldn’t accept at all.
And so when Eve entered, he looked at that… thing? Human? Android, synth? Whatever it was made Guy’s head tilt a bit as he was reading the books about Aristotele and his philosophy and also to chuckle as he deducted something was not human in “her”.
“Interesting…” he turned around the sofa taking his PaDD and standing up as he walked with his cold eyes fixed at the little letters of the LCARS UI toward toward Ms. Eve.
“Eve? Just Eve? Alright.” He confirmed his thought. “So, what are you up for, here? Ms. Eve. We had no appointment booked if I am correct.” He stopped with his proudness and feet 20 cm apart from her.

“You are correct, Sir, that I have not made an appointment,” the android replied, her synthetic voice adopting an almost contrite tone. “I checked your schedule and saw that you had no other obligations. However, if I have arrived at an inconvenient time then I can return later?”

“You’re correct, Eve. I don’t anything to do now and no. You can stay, what’s the point of this visit?” He laid down his azure eyes to the android face: hers seemed like of a young woman. Fascinating, Guy thought.

As she waited for the Counselor’s response, Eve began to study the man’s office. It always fascinated her, the myriad configurations that humanoids could discover to arrange and decorate what was standard, isotropic furnishings and fixtures.

The office was not decorated too much. On the right side of the room, hanged on the wall, there were Guy’s degrees: medical to near the door, following his academy and finally his counseling degree. He had a sack pillow seat tho, a standard starfleet boring 3-person sofa, an antique glass table in the center of the room and some other furniture like a piece of the bulkhead of the old Red Baron starship he served on, his old medical uniform he loved to wear when he was at the university (Of course cased into a wooden frame with gold details) and a lovely crystal dog statue on the desk that he used to have to remember his youth pet who perished when a shuttle departed and burnt the dog with the thrusters.

“I was…hoping…that we might engage in social discourse, if you have the time, Sir?” she qualified after a moment.

Guy was at first weirded about the request but as he put down the PaDD on the desk and ordered some Martini, he said “Well, I was bored. Get a seat.” And just before he could leave the replicator he asked “Uh… I’m not sure, do you want something?”
