“O… ohkay.” She followed Sisnil into his quarters with a fearful glance back over her shoulder. She didn’t like being in someone else’s space, but she felt better with Sisnil near.

Inside she sank to the floor by his small couch. Simon wandered over after greeting Sisnil. She picked him up and cuddled him. His purrs lulled her to sleep. It didn’t take long either before she was asleep, sitting up on the floor.

She didn’t sleep well either. She never woke up, but she was tormented by nightmares. By the time her sleep settled she would never make it for her shift.

Sisnil sat on the floor with her, trying his best to help keep her calm. He didn’t wake her, he simply sent Tessan a message using the computer system. It read, “En. Dradvia won’t make it to shift today. You know why. - Sisnil”

//Thank you - Take care of her //

Sisnil did take care of her. Dradvia had been disoriented and confused to find herself waking up on the floor of Sisnil’s quarters. Simon curled up purring against her. She’d been very upset she’d missed her shift, certain that Dr. Tessan would be angry with her. In the ‘light of day’, as it were, Dradvia remembered the session and Tessan’s insistence that something had been done to her.

She remembered she had been terribly frightened afterwards, and something in the memory had bothered her. Every time she tried to think about it, to focus on it, she had a panic attack. That made no sense to her. She’d fallen and scared herself into a flashback. She shouldn’t be panicking over it. Stressed and worried, but not full blown panic. Yet it continued to happen every time.

Tessan had not in fact been upset with her, but she still worked extra hard to make up for it. She was severely agitated the day of her next appointment. Whatever had happened she didn’t want to repeat it. She wanted Sisnil with her, but the need to stop anyone from accusing him falsely stopped her from asking him again. She couldn’t miss the appointment though. She’d given Dr. Tessan her word that she would put in the work. So she pressed the chime on his office door, feeling sicker by the minute.

“Come in” he said as he stood from his desk to make two cups of tea and get her a glass of water. “Please have a seat Ensign” he said in his normaly tone. He looked past her wondering why Zoi was not with her. She must have decided not to expore the memory again. He move to set down the glass of water and then sat down across from her and siped his tea.

She noticed the second cup of tea with a bit of confusion and trepidation. Was someone joining them or was she supposed to bring Sisnil back? She hadn’t asked Sisnil if he wanted to. He would say yes even if he didn’t. He would do that for her. Knowing it put him at risk just made her feel guilty and alone.

“How has your week been, you have been working pretty hard.”

Dradvia looked down at her hands. “I’mmm… I’m sorry I missed Dr. Tessan. I don’t know why I slept so much. I don’t do that unless I’m sick.”

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

There was a second knock on the door. “Sorry I’m late, I’ve become ship technical support,” came Sisnil’s voice.

~ Zoi

Dradvia’s gaze shot to the door in surprise. He came. She had been so careful not to mention it, not wanting to put him in the position of having to participate.

He started to respond to Dradvia when Zoi entered. Tealor looked up but did not say anything, he pushed the tea confront of the empty chair..

“Ensign its fine, Mr Zoi let me know, and I told you you could have a few days off.” He noted..

Dradvia’s gaze swung back towards Tessan. “I know, but…” Her brows drew down in concentration and frustration, “but I don’t know why you did. You never … well I’ve never needed to miss a shift before.”

“Have a seat mr.Zoi” he requested waving toward the chair.. tea from back home , not replicated.

Tealor looked at her, “i know Ensign,” he said his voice filled with compassion. “Let’s just go with i thought it was best, ok? Your memory has been altered and the conditioning is making you dismiss it”

Being reminded set her into a panic. They could feel it, but also see it. She shook in the seat and denied it. “No, it was just a flash back.”

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

“It’s ok Ensign,” he said looking at Zoi. There is was . No, It was just a flash back. “What would you like to work on Ensign” he asked taking a sip from his tea

Dradvia gave him a confused look. “I thought we were working on regression?”

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

Sisnil nodded subtly. There was no point in fighting it now. She would only have the same response.

~ Zoi

“We will get to that,” he said, “He’s here with us… I would like permission to find the memory myself and look at it without you present.”

Chief Medical Officer U.S.S Wolverine

Dradvia’s whole expression scrunched up like a one year old’s that was just told they were a separate individual from their mother. “You want to look at my flashback?” Why? She couldn’t wait for an answer because there was a much more confusing question she needed to ask. “How are you going to look at my memory without me being here?”

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

Tealor was trying very hard not to trigger the memory that would lock her down again. “You have shown it to me in previous sessions, it’s an echo I can find again.” he said. “It will help me look at it unfiltered without you influencing the memory, so I know what really happened” he said plainly

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

Dradvia understood that, but… “How do you do that? It’s in my head, I can’t leave my head.”

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

“you’ll know what’s going on for sure, but i’ll take us there instead of you remembering” he entire goal was to find the memory again, see that sisnils mind was no where near it, but he was afraid that once she saw the memory it would collapse.

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

“I don’t understand,” Dradvia said. It didn’t make sense to her. “If… if you want to look, I guess that’s okay.” She didn’t understand why he wanted to see the memory she had the flashback of, but he seemed adamite, so she would agree.

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

“Good” he said letting zoi open to his emotions but no further he sunk into her mind. “Relax and close your eyes” he said as he found the memory. It did not take long it was very familiar to him now. He moved quickly to the point where her hand slipped off the desk, and took a step back looking to see if he sensed Sisnil or someone else. There had to be a manipulation point.

Dradvia couldn’t close her eyes, it felt too vulnerable. Until Sisnil took her hand. She took a breath and tried to relax. This whole thing was too strange. Tessan and Sisnil were making her scared with the way they were acting and focusing on her panic attack.

The shimmer was not as pronounced here. It was like fuzzy peripheral vision on someone with glasses. There was a low hum coming from the shadows. It felt insidious and dangerous.

Ens. Dradvia, Medical Officer

Tealor tried to look further into the darkness,, what is that humming he said trying to work through the fear of it. it was like the darkens kept retreating from him keeping him just out of reach. Tealors hands tightened on the chair arm.
