As the last patient exited Surra’s office, she went back to her desk, sat there for a moment, took a deep breath, and then activated the commlink on her desk. “HARLEEN, will you tell me if Dr. Grayson has finished seeing patients for the day?”Almikaz, CoP
HARLEEN’s voice chimed in on the commlink, “It looks like Dr. Grayson has just wrapped up with her last patient.”

“Thank you, HARLEEN,” Surra said as she switched the channel and called Dr. Grayson. “Mariah, do you mind stopping by my office for a moment?”
It had been a while since Surra had checked in with Dr. Grayson. They had both been busy with multiple psychiatric cases resulting from traveling in space for long periods of time, separation from families, and demanding missions that placed a toll on the crew.
However, who evaluated the psychiatrist? It was often and mistakenly believed that they had it all together as the mental health professionals on the ship, but that was not always the case. There were many times she wanted to just talk to someone and be patient. She assumed Mariah felt the same and decided that check-in was due. However, this would not be a typical check-in, here they would lean on each other for mental support and do a back-and-forth check-in.Almikaz, CoP
Just turning away from the replicator with her mocha frappe in hand - her reward to herself for finishing the day’s work sessions, if not all her notes - Mariah tapped her com console to respond, curious what the request could mean and also grateful to put distance between herself and the documentation required, answered, “Sure. Are caffeinated beverages okay for this? If so, may I bring you something?” Grayson was prepared to recycle her drink but couldn’t discern from Almikaz’ tone whether that would be necessary.

Most beings Surra encountered did not like Klingon coffee and because the Klingons were so hostile and unwelcoming for the better part of their known existence, many had not had the opportunity to try it and of course, there was even a debate as to whether or not it was actually coffee. Surra had never actually tried the real version but the replicatd version was much more bolder and caffeinated than standard coffee from Earth.
