With everything that was going on and the chaos of his recent promotion, Mwezi felt like it was time for a visit to the Counsellor. He didn’t generally enjoy talking about his feelings, but it was probably a good idea. He stepped up to the room on the Pelican that functioned as Paddy’s temporary office and thumped his fist against the wall right beside the door, knocking.

While he stood there, a hand lifted to idly tug at his right ear - particularly the empty place where two earrings had previously hung.
