Tealor stood infront of Zoi’s quarters still woundering if this was the best approach, the man had been avoiding his evaluation long enough. If he wanted to continue serving on the ship rather than rotting on a starbase some where he would have to get it over with. Tealor wondered what intel had in mind when they placed him her, he did not judge the man for his past but it was not exactly something starfleet went after. The computer had located zoi and placed him here. Tealor rang the bell.

The door slid open after a few minutes. There wasn’t anything in Sisnil’s quarters except his PaDD, a cat bed, cat bowls, and of course, the kitten those items belonged to. He mewed cutely at Tealor. Sisnil shooed him away with a socked foot. “Yeah?”

~ Zoi

He smiled at the cat momentarily, thought it a bit ironic and then mentally moved on when he mushed it out of the way. “After noon Mr Zoi, we’ve been unable to connect for your evlauation, I need to lock it down we are running out of time before the deadline” he noted. “May I come in?”

Sisnil stayed in the doorway. “Morris send you?” He asked. “I didn’t go because I’m not fleet.”

~ Zoi

Tealor looked at him, “Starfleet vessel, starfleet rules, you’re not a guest, you’re an operator means an evaluation is required.” he said with a pause, “I don’t make the rules, ” he noted, “Sooner it’s done the sooner we can move on” he noted. “Like the physical”

Sisnil sighed irritatedly and moved out of the way. “Fine. Make it quick.”

~ Zoi

Tealor looked around the room trying to gauge some personality. “Mind if I sit here?” he said motioning to the desk chair not really wanting to sit on the floor or the mans bed. He looked around for the kitten.

There was nothing personal. Sisnil watched him. “You won’t find anything interesting. I don’t know if you know this, but you don’t get to keep personal objects when you get arrested.” He sat on the bed and as he did, the Bengal kitten, Simon, leaped up, jumped in his lap, and swatted at his hands. “Simon! I’m busy.”

~ Zoi

“Well hopefully that will change with time” he noted looking at the cat he smiled. He did not have the adversion to cats that many of thier people did, he spent a lot of time growing up on earth. He looked at the man, “Normaly we would go throug some word association related exersises, seems like maybe we can skip that part since there is a profile. Though if i’m can be frank, what i have read feels biased. So I would like to learn about you from you.” he leaned back and placed his Padd on his lap his mind locked up tight.

“Lets start with you, is there anything you think I should know beyond what’s in the file?”

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

What profile did he forget to delete? He though he got all those. “Hmm. I wonder why it would be biased.” He said, voice loaded with sarcasm. To the last question, he shook his head. Tessan could feel his distrust. It was deep and all consuming, bordering on paranoia.

~ Zoi
Tealor kept a rather neutral face, “How are you settling in, it must be hard being away from what you know? Can you tell me about your life before the arest without exposing the people you care about?”

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

Tessan felt a powerful mental wall in his mind. “Any information is potentially harmful in the hands of an enemy. You should know that.”

~ Zoi

“I do, though I guess I was hoping there would be something that would tell me something about you” he said, “I’m not interested in the crimes you have been accused of, Im more interested in you.” he noted.. “So being in enemy hands, how do you see this playing out? Your resourcefull I’m sure you could have escaped already had you wanted to” he said not know the full condition of his existence on the ship.

Chief Medical Officer U.S.S Wolverine

“Yeah,” Sisnil mocked again, “Let me escape in the middle of deep space.” He’d need a sizeable star base or space station for an escape attempt. Stealing a shuttling wouldn’t get him very far. “Let me ask you, what exactly you think the outcome of this discussion would be. Do you honestly believe I’d reveal anything?”

~ Zoi

Tessans voice remained calm. “Im not really looking for you to reveal anything, I want to know how you are doing.” he said plainly his body language was relaxed. “How do you feel, what are your thoughts on how you were treated in this situation?” he ased trying to just move one, if the man wanted to jam himself up there was not much he can do about it.

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

“I’m a “dangerous criminal”. How do you think I was treated?” Sisnil replied. “Drugged to keep my telepathy down and have you ever been without your telepathy? Held separately, in a holding cell, in a faraday cage. I mean, I’m glad your fleet is that scared of me but it isn’t exactly comfortable.”

~ Zoi

Tealor was about to react with some empathy around being treated the way he had, truth be told he was considering lanuching an informal back channel quries, as something about it all seemed, far fetched. Instead though he ask a more simple questions. “Are you?” he said noting something on his Padd

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

“Depends on your definition of dangerous. I’m not unpredictable, nor unreasonable,” Sisnil replied with a shrug.

~ Zoi

Tealor was not sure what to say to get the man to open up. “And what about the criminal part?”

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

“Everyone here knows my associations, what do you think?” Sisnil replied, implying the obvious answer was yes, he was a criminal. “I’m literally here in exchange for not going to prison.”

~ Zoi

Tealor looked at him a moment he certianly was closed off, though he really did not expect anything else, he was being forced to be here for the most part. “Thats not really what I asked, I know what the paper says and what star fleet says. ” he said plainly. “What do you say?”

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

“Why does it matter?” Sisnil asked. “A criminal is just someone who has committed a crime. By definition that makes me one.”

~ Zoi

Tealor noted something down in his Padd and then continued, “Iteresting, ” he said, “I think it matters a lot, if you consider the things that you have been accused of as crime s or not. ” tealor said

Chief Medical Officer U.S.S Wolverine

“Anything against the law is a crime. Law doesn’t equal morality,” Sisnil replied. “That’s not saying I think my actions are always moral.”

~ Zoi

He looked at him considering his next words. “What do you plan on getting out of your time on this ship?” he asked wounding what his plans were for his time aboard the ship.

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

Sisnil shrugged. “Look, I don’t wanna be here. No one else wants me here. I’m just gonna keep to myself.”

~ Zoi

Tealor search his body language, searching for any clues to his well being. “I’m not sure that the second part of that statement is true, certainly someone wants you here from some reason, or you would not be.” he noted, looking through his notes around the conditions of his time here. “If you wish to be alone, there certainly is nothing wrong with that. But there are good people on the ship, you might try, feels like it would be better than spending all your spare time in this room. ” he suggested.

“Star Fleet Command, they want my computer skills used for the Federation. That doesn’t make the ship happy about it.” Sisnil’s body language was closed off. His arms were crossed, and he sat slightly hunched, legs wide. His body was tense. He watched Tessan as though the man were an active threat. Tessan could tell, despite his robust mental walls, that Sisnil was using his abilities to constantly feel for people around him, check their minds for threats or ill intent.

Tealor new that pitty would not serve the conversation, althoug he felt some for the man. “Do you feel safe here?” he asked after a moment.

Sisnil didn’t feel safe anywhere. “Safe? Here?” He grinned and chuckled. “Did you forget who I worked for already? With my telepathy, I’m pretty confident no one here could get to me.”

Tealor squinted, it was on clear if his next response was directly related to Zoi’s response or if he was thinking about something else. “Just cause we can see it coming does not always mean we can stop it. “

Shifting in his seat. “Safety is not always about physical security!” he suggested

“What else would it be?” Sisnil asked.

“Emotional and Mental” he said plainly, “Knowing someone else has your back for the times we can’t see it comming is just as powerfull” he noted. “It can keep hope alive, did you not have that with at least your brother?” he asked his tone neutral

“Of course we do.” Sisnil couldn’t explain the bond between himself and his brother. They were always in contact. Being without him was strange and incredibly lonely.

As if he had read is mind, but it was obviously just good logic. “It must be lonely, and quiet” he suggested. “How are you managing that?”

“I got a cat,” Sisnil pointed out, gesturing to a still hyper Simon who was stalking one of his toys.

Tealor laughed slightly, “I see that, seems like you get along ok” he noted. “He’s got a lot of energy.”

“Do you have access to books? or entertainment?” he asked, I don’t see it in my notes.

Sisnil nodded and gestured to the PaDD. “Anything in the ship catalogue, same as anyone else.” He said.

~ Zoi

“I would recommend that you try to make some friends, or at least one. You are going to be here awhile, i’m not saying place unyielding trust in them,but find some one to play a game with or something” he noted.

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

“I have a friend,” Sisnil said. “And not just the cat.” He said as Simon raced around the room.

~ Zoi

“Good” he responded. “And how is that friends ship going?”

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

“Fine,” Sisnil said with a shrug.

~ Zoi
“You say fine, but the shrug suggests that you’re not sure, why is that?” he asked

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

Because Dee was a slave, and Sisnil was Syndicate. It was technically his duty to return her. But he’d never do that. Never. Still, the thought he could must frighten her. But Sisnil just shook his head. “Fine means fine.”

~ Zoi

“Fair enough” he said, “Is there anything you think I should know before i file my initial report and ongoing recommendations?”

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

“Yeah, I’m not doing weekly appointments or whatever,” Sisnil commented, eyeing him.

~ Zoi

Tealor looked at him. “I’m not sure that choice is entirly up to you or I” he noted. “If we meet weekly it’s more likly that the powers that be will leave you be a little more, but if you don’t want too, then I can recomend every other” he said plainly.

“Look, no offense, but I don’t need a psych.” Sisnil said. “And I’m not a Fleet officer. So it shouldn’t be necessary.”
