Posted by Cadet Electra Tamar (Doctor) in Check in-CNS Office Cadet Electra Tamar for Psych Eval
Electra messed with her black hair for a moment before telling the computer to stop the music and heading off to her appointment. She loved music more then most, and listened whenever possible. Thankfully due to her better then most hearing she never had a noise complaint against her, which was always something she worried about.Opening her door she started walking to the CNS Office, she didn’t mind this part of the introductions. The cadet never was afraid of “shrinks” Now social workers that’s another story though. At times she even considered wanting to work as a councilor, but then there was the issue with having to be outgoing that stopped her. Her thoughts drifted from place to place as she walked. Seeing the correct nameplate ahead the cadet said to herself, “Ok here we go,” and walked to the door to press the buzzer, suddenly feeling a bit congested.

The door to the counselor’s office slid open automatically when Tamar pressed the buzzer, obviously expecting her arrival for her appointment. The room inside was of decent size by dimension, but was filled with an assortment of furniture, art, and lots and lots of plants. In the primary space, a high-backed armchair sat facing a loveseat couch, both adorned with a warm brown cloth fabric and designed for comfort when sitting for extended periods. The loveseat was flanked by two intricate end tables made of dark wood, each of which had an arrangement of little statues, candles, and a tissue box. A hemp rug bridged the space between the two seating options.
There was a desk pushed up against the far wall, but it was almost obscured by an indoor jungle’s worth of potted plants on that side of the room that hung from the ceiling, stood in large vases, or sat on shelves with dozens of other specimens. The plants, in combination with the earth tones of the furniture and the slightly yellowed lighting in the office gave the space a tropical atmosphere. Indeed, the plant life might even make the air feel be a bit more fresh, to those with keen senses.
Among the plants, a tall man with tanned skin and pushed-back brown hair turned to peered through the foliage as the door to his office opened. A small circular symbol sat on his forehead, indicating that he was from Risa. He grinned as he maneuvered through the organic maze. “Cadet Electra! Welcome! I’m counselor Hilo. Please, come in! In fact, come over here,” Hilo said as he motioned toward the jungle, leaving the seating area ignored for now. “I was just in the middle of pruning some of my plants. Would you mind lending a hand for a moment before we begin?”
Hilo stopped in front of a shelf that had three plants sitting in plate-sized pots. One housed a Christmas cactus that was spilling over the edges of its container. Another, a hydrangea that seemed to be at the end of its blooming cycle. And the last, a sage plant that had grown too big for its allotted soil. Hilo looked over his shoulder and offered a pair of clippers to Tamar. The man’s face was friendly and inviting, encouraging her to take her pick of plant to preen.

OOC: Welcome, Ophelia! We’re so glad to have you! In this thread, we’ll discuss your character’s personality and backstory, and in your thread with your DH you’ll go over some of the more technical parts of writing on STF. I’m looking forward to learning more about your character. From my understanding, most Bajorans have their first name second and their second name first (if that makes any sense). Is that the case with your character? Is “Tamar” her first name and “Electra” her last name, by our standards? Totally fine if not, just thought I’d clarify!
