[ Cambridge keeps himself conspicuous and approachable. Some days, he's spread out on a table in the dining hall, some books and papers in front of him as he conducts a study on this or that. He reads very quickly, enough that it looks like he might just be skimming, and takes notes on a PADD one-handed, not really looking at the keys that he's hitting. Other times, it's in the library, and he's working in an actual notebook.
When on duty, he's in the counseling offices, one particular made his own. The door is open, unless there's a patient inside, which isn't actually all that common thus far. He supposes it will pick up eventually.
He takes a stroll on the deck, and through the garden.
And, just to keep sharp, he makes sure he goes in for a bit of training in the Enclosure, possibly fighting a Klingon if he can make it program that in, just someone more humanlike if he can't. Unarmed combat, various disciplines in which he dabbles.
In fact, it's pretty hard not to run into him at some time or another. It's enough to think he might be following you. ]

Check in, please, or I'll come find you.
[ True to his word, he will, if she doesn't. ]
[ private to jean ]
I'd like to speak with you.

[That's what prompts her to knock on the door to his office. After all, he's probably bored.]

What are you doing?

[ A little pointedly, which is funny, because he doesn't go in for little social nothingnesses himself. ]
I believe there's a study to be made of different worlds and their responses to the rise of individuals with superpowers. The Barge provides an excellent cross-section.
spam
Fine. [And that's all.]
When you're done, can I read it? We don't have superpowers in my world.

A graduate degree in anything specific, or just a generic graduate degree?
spam
Is there something in particular you want to study?
spam
I was taking . . . informal business classes from someone who was here. Derek Powers. We talked about him at - at the memorial. Said goodbye, and everything. But I don't think that's the type of degree you're talking about.
I wanted to go into psychology, once. Or join the FBI. But I don't anymore. - You do know what the FBI is?

[ He's not entirely sure. ]
Business certainly can lead to that sort of thing, especially if you study it academically, on the economics side. Which I would argue would be useful for any business, but, what do I know, the Federation mostly doesn't have any real currency these days.

We'd only started on economics. He was very practical. Is very practical. [She doesn't know if that's right.]
Flexibility is important to me. It's - a goal. It's why I'm here, actually.

Have you spoken to Ben?
spam
Of course I've spoken to Ben. And yes, I've spoken to him about this. I decided I want to do it.
spam
What would you like to accomplish?
spam
I want growth. And also I don't want it. If you see what I mean.
spam
That's a more coherent list than I'd get from most of my clients.
