It had once again been a reluctant appointment. In fact, it hadn’t been the appointment that had been reluctant, but rather her attendance of it.

She was ten when she had first been seen by a counselor, and since then, counselors had been a constant in her life. They had been so much of a constant that she had even dated one for a three years.

And now, a few days after the Dresden’s new CNS had boarded, her terminal had alerted her that she had an upcoming appointment. As usual, Holloway dismissed it almost instantly. She had no intention of setting foot in the Counselor’s office. Until it occurred to her that if she behaved in said appointment, she might be able to get her holodeck privileges back.

That was why, a few minutes before the scheduled time, Captain Molly Grace Holloway was walking through the Dresden to meet Commander Renveer. A practiced polite smile on her face.

As she reached the door, she carefully adjusted her trademark ballerina bun and straightened her freshly pressed uniform. Holloway looked her best self.

Then, without hesitation, she pressed the chime and waited to be called inside.

Capt. Holloway, CIO
