[ 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. ]

I'd like to speak with you.

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.

I'm glad you're not deeply idiotic.

I guess so.
[Which really amounts to the same thing. She talks a good talk. It's a matter of putting in the work.]

I warn you, I'm not sure it's possible to get to all four.
[ He's joking. ]

Not without cloning myself.

...in my world, anyhow.
Now, there's the matter of background. I generally receive partial or complete service records of my patients, plus medical history, but obviously there's nothing like that here. Would you like me to request your file from Ben, or would you like to relate everything to me yourself?
spam
You would trust me to just tell you?
spam
However, this is your treatment, and your decisions drive the process. If there's something you're bound and determined to lie about or avoid, I can only do so much.
spam
I think it would be better if you had the file. It's a broader account than I can give, and it'll keep me from. Prevaricating.
