Keying the door chime, “Morning Bright” waited patently for the counselor to answer. He did not envy the person behind that door, his job was much easier. Examining the material culture and languages of past civilizations was buy far easier than untangling the sentient mind. Tho it was often useful to collaborate with the counseling department, being that the artifacts he worked with were produced buy minds not just hands or their equivalent.

Ensin “Morning Bright”

Kadence came around the corner just then and smiled. “Afternoon. Sorry I’m late. Someone needed my help.” She keyed the door open and invited him in. “Come on in and get comfortable. Can I offer you something to drink? Ensign Morning Bright, yes?” She was smiling and cordial like nothing was amiss.

The room was sparsely, though tastefully, decorated. There was the usual clutter of PaDDs on her desk to the side and the table between the couch and chairs near the window had a tray on it with remnants of tea having been left suddenly and unexpectedly. It was to that tray that the woman had wandered to straight away to remove and take to the replicator counter.

The shelves were sparse but here and there were odd tidbits. From small framed holo pics, to an oddity of nicknacks. Twigs, stones, rocks, even broken jewelry littered the six or seven spots scattered over the four shelves as if she had tried to stretch the meager ‘decorations’ to make the shelves look full and useful.

Back by the door, she kicked off her small ankle boots and walked around in her stocking feet with an obvious comfort that made one think it was almost ritual.
