With everything that was going on and the chaos of his recent promotion, Mwezi felt like it was time for a visit to the Counsellor. He didn’t generally enjoy talking about his feelings, but it was probably a good idea. He stepped up to the room on the Pelican that functioned as Paddy’s temporary office and thumped his fist against the wall right beside the door, knocking.

While he stood there, a hand lifted to idly tug at his right ear - particularly the empty place where two earrings had previously hung.

Paddy McMillan was only now starting to feel calmer about the mission, to the point where he could begin to perform psychological evaluations of the crew again, despite the slight adjustments made to the ‘Pelican‘ as part of this mission. The slightly more intimate space had both advantages and disadvantages depending on the patient, but Paddy was hopeful that his latest client, Commander Mwezi, would prove to be an interesting conversation both within and without the context of the mission. He smiled as he answered the door, “Evening Commander, come in. Can I get you anything to drink before we get underway?”

“Some water would be appreciated,” Mwezi replied, giving the man a quick nod as he stepped through the door. He couldn’t remember what sort of person McMillan was, they hadn’t interacted too much other than a quick on-boarding evaluation almost a year ago. He could make some inferences based on the fact that the man was a Counsellor, but other than that, “Paddy” was entirely a stranger. Mwezi had a thoughtful expression on his face, furrowing his brows slightly as he waited for the water and glanced around the room. The furrowing was intentional, as facial expressions were not natural to his species, simply a habit he’d picked up from being among humans for so long. It made conversations a little smoother.

Giving a polite nod and crossing to the replicator, Paddy began the process, “So, how do you feel the mission is going thus far?”

-Lieutenant Patrick McMillan: Counsellor-

Mwezi sat and considered the question for a moment. “I suppose its going well enough. I’ve noticed some dissent and anger among some crewmembers in the meeting about the hit on the passenger liner, but I’ve only been XO for a day so I’ve only just begun to pay attention to, well, the people. I mostly stayed in my own lane when I was a security officer. Tried to live out my life as someone who didn’t really leave an impact.” He didn’t really belong in this time and place, so it hadn’t seemed right to make a big impression. Not that he could explain that particular aspect of his existence to the Counsellor.
