“Yes Sir.” Dradvia was quick to leave. She had no plans, but was glad to be free. Seven whole days before she had to do that again. She had reserved time in the holodeck. She was going to see Umbra. No, she wasn’t a real cat, but Dradvia enjoyed the program.

Tealor waited for her to leave and then went back to his desk, finalized his notes. He stared out the window thinking on his own past.

It was time for another appointment. Dradvia was tired. She had dark circles under her eyes, and she was quieter than normal. Not that anyone noticed, and no one could complain about the quality of her work.

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

Talor opened the door with a smile and then saw the dark under eyes. He did not react thought. “Come in Ensign, have a seat if you like.” there was already a tall cold class of water sitting on the table and his usual cup of hot tea. He waited for her to sit before he did.

Dradvia entered and sat. She supposed she could stand, but she was tired. She took the chair opposite his desk, and then wondered if she should stand given how tired she was. “Dr. Tessan.”

Tealor looked at her a moment..”Not sleeping still?” he asked, she had been using the device now it should be helping stableize her chemistry making it very easy for her to get some sleep, he woundered if she was intentionally not using it or if she was staying up too late,or both. Her work was on target so he was unsure.

She sensed disapproval or judgement. “I… I was. I’ve had nightmares the last couple of nights.” Night terrors really.

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

Tealors eyes were set with compassion, “I’m very sorry to hear that, ” he noted .”Are you using the band at night?” he asked if she was night terrors were very unlikely, likely it would need to be adjusted, or someone had adjusted and did it wrong. They might need to do observation, record as she slept to see how her brain was reacting to the simulation.

Dradvia nodded, “Yes, Sir. Every night like you told me. I did forget it the other night. I fell asleep before I pit it on. Last night it fell off. I guess I didn’t put it on right.”

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

Tealor noded and reached in the top door of his desk, “I think we need to understand if it’s actually doing what it’s supposed to be doing , the calabration may need to be adjusted.” he said handing her what looked like a small attachment very small and very light weight. “There is a port in the side, plug it in. I took it out intitally to give you some space” he said. “Use it the next two nights please it will report the sensor data to me when you wake up. Sleep is key ” he said and sat back down.

“Other than the lack of sleep and the night terrors how has everything else beend?”

“They’re okay.” She still wasn’t completely trusting or ready to really share things, and some… it felt wrong to share.

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

“Scale of One to Ten, one being the worst, how would you rate this last week compared to all the others since you and I started talking?”

“Anything happen this week that caused more anxiety than normal while you were working or relaxing?” he asked

It was there in her eyes. Something had happened, but then it was gone. Replaced by a lighter look. There were more good things this week than bad. The bad was bad, but the good was… confusing. “A seven, I guess.”

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

They had lots of time so Tealor was not about to let that slide, besides the night terrors might be to much for her to regress into. “Are you sure Ensign, something there felt pretty heavy?” he noted.

Dradvia nodded. “Yes. I mean it wasn’t perfect, but over all more good than not. I… I think I might have made a friend.” There was so much hope swirling inside her, and caution.

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

Tealor looked a little supriesed. “I must admit that’s not what I was expecting. That’s a good thing” he said trying to let it sink in. Tealor looked at he for a long moment, friends was something that was going to be hard for her given her loss, and the lack of trust that she had. It was something that was critical in her healing.

It wasn’t the heavy thing Tessan had sensed, but it was part of the truth.
He sensed that maybe she was holding something back, but this was to good a thing for her to pass up digging maybe it would come out what ever it was that she was holding back.

“How does that make you feel?” he asked.

Dradvia shrugged. “I don’t know. Mostly confused.”

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

Tealor searched her posture looking to read more than just her feelings, how was she holding her self when she talked about, what here her hands doing . “Oh, what’s confusing or rather serperate that in to more distinct feelings” he suggested.

Her arms were crossed holding her forearms, like a hug. She was protecting something. The rest of her posture was relaxed and open though, so not herself. She looked a little more awake despite her lack of sleep.

She sighed though, looking conflicted. “I can’t. I mean, I know, but I can’t tell you. If I tell you, you’ll ask why. I can’t tell you why because I gave my word.”

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

Tealor look at her for a long minute trying to dicern the trueth of it. Finaly her resigned that she was trying to be loyal. “How about you tell me and I’ll not ask why? Keeping you word is a good thing.” he said guite plainly. “I don’t need to know the who or why of it I don’t think. I will say though if someone is asking you to keep things from your theropist, in most cases I couldn’t say anything any way. I would personal question that if I were you.” he noted. “If it’s because they want privacy then that’s ok, makes sense?”

Dr Tealor Tessan
Chief Medical Officer U.S.S Wolverine

“It isn’t specifically you, just in general. They want privacy, and it’s not my story to tell. It isn’t anything that makes me break my oath to Star Fleet or to myself.” She relaxed her grip on her arms. “He didn’t ask. I offered because I.could tell they were uncomfortable.”

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

Tealor was satisfied with that answer.. “Good, I can respect that, if you offered it then please say no more.” he thought it wierd the thought of her breaking her oath had not really crossed his mind, and he certianly did not want to put that directly into her file. expressed that she was not compromising her ethics he wrote which was enough to trigger the memory for him but would not raise any flags in the system.

“I’m glad that you found a friend? maybe” he said finally “We can move on, would you like to try some more regression? or would you rather just talk today?” he asked

Dr Tealor Tessan
Chief Medical Officer U.S.S Wolverine

She really didn’t want to do the regression. She still felt raw from the night terrors. But that was the treatment she had agreed to try. “I… I I guess regression.”
