I'm sure you intend this to be flattering but I'm not sure what to think of it. You seem to have a lot of ideas, although not all of them are quite so healthy, something I'm not going to go into here.

If you're truly doing this in order to help, as you say, and from what I can see it would be quite a big challenge, then that would be something to consider, but I know that there's more you're not telling me.

Perhaps we should discuss that first, and then your suggestions. I need to know everything before I can do anything.

A logical approach. [Yep someone approves.]

[counselling]

I find that knowing everything helps me to see all the options before recommending any course of action. [ There's no such thing as too much information for her job ]

Starfleet was wise in assigning counselors to their starships, I see. Perhaps your cook is less put upon to take up those duties in addition to his own.

That's not always the case. Guinan, our lounge host, often acts as an unofficial counsellor. I guess more in terms of advice rather than therapy.

"Deanna?"

[counselling]

[ Well this is... more than a surprise. Definitely a big surprise to boot ]

Tasha?

[ What do you say, or do to this? ]

How are you here?

[tasha_yar]

Her lips twitches. "That's better than I normally get. More honest, too." She shrugs. "The same way you are, I think. Some entity called a 'mun' gets you in their head like a spare thought and here you are. Do your senses detect anything about them?"

[with_discipline]

And your doctor? Is she similarly asked for advice?

[counselling]

Not as much. [ Unless your name is Deanna and you're friends with said doctor ] Although there is always the usual conversations between patient and doctor, some not always medical.

Nothing that has been able to help. They're hiding something, but I don't know what.

Tasha was always prone to large expressions in body language. The eye roll is somehow done with her whole body before she settles back into her default professional mode, clasping her hands in front of her out of habit.

"Here's the good news - if you can call it good. Physically, in this space, you are not in any danger. This place, if you can call it that, has some kind of non-aggression force to it, but it's also a kind of limbo. Nothing seems to happen here, good or bad, other than your ability to talk with your mun and others."

"Once your mun puts you into what they call a 'game' then there are no guarantees of safety, life, or death. Who and what we are could stay very much the same - or it could fundamentally change."

"Once in a game - well, it doesn't stay a game. They're more like...parallel universe where you live out your existence. Those parallel worlds also have the same 'no guarantees' rules. Some look almost like normal. Some couldn't be farther from it."
