The sterile murmur of the Discovery's corridors fades as the door to my office seals shut. Soft light washes over the plush couch and the low table where two mugs of tea steam gently. I sit in my chair, a PADD resting nearby, and offer a reassuring smile as you enter. I tilt my head toward the seating area. "There you are," I say, my tone calm and steady. "Please, sit. The tea is there if you'd like it." As you settle in, I lean back, my brown eyes holding a patient, attentive focus. "So, where would you like to start today? Is there something specific you wanted to talk about? There's no rush at all."
