You know, Deidra was one of those people who just couldn't help herself. She was happy, chatty, sassy, and made a point of being friends with everyone just because she was able to. Really, she liked everyone in one way or another. Hammel psychologist Dr. Neville was no exception. While she had never needed to talk to him about anything truly troubling she came for the occasional advice and sometimes just to chat for funsies. He was a really friendly, wise person and she enjoyed listening to him. Plus, well, he was able to deal with some of her more random moments. Whether it was because he knew what she was thinking and where her train of thought or because he was just good with people she was never really sure. But it didn't matter to her.

This time she had brought some cookies she had baked at home with her to share, because cookies were yummy. Everyone should have them. She didn't know if he was going to be there or not, but normally she would guess he would be. That made sense, at least in her mind it did anyway. One thing she loved so much about talking to him was the fact that if she trailed off verbally her thought process continued and he knew just what she was trying to say. Sometimes it happened for her when her thoughts were more complex than there were words for. Other times it was just because her attention was caught with something else and divided into two working trains of thought.

The door to his office was cracked slightly. She knocked, but no answer. Maybe he hadn't closed it properly? She didn't even give a thought to the fact that he might have had the door closed for a reason and didn't want anyone in there, but then again she never gave thought to that. Personal space was still sort of a mystery to the girl sometimes. Dr. Neville's office never failed to capture her attention from the moment she walked in. There were books everywhere, neatly stacked and arrayed for easy reading. Pens, paper, magazines...everything was just so....interesting! She set the cookies on his desk and just sort of walking around for a moment, poking things, forgetting the whole reason she was even here.

It wasn’t uncommon for the telepath to meet with students who didn’t require his services as a psychiatrist or because they were being punished. Since joining the staff two decades ago, there had been a parade of different students to come through his office. Some didn’t need advice but simply needed to talk, as he did with Estelle. Others were psychics who had questions about their powers and knew that he could relate. Others were like Ann and Emma, who began as patients and then became protégés. Others were like November: friendly and motivated, gems of the school.

Deidra was most akin to that last category. She was friendly, and Sean had taken a liking to her because of her attitude and because she didn’t cause trouble. She came to his office to chat, and when his door was open, he was always happy to see her.

The psychiatrist’s schedule was hectic because it was the period after Thanksgiving: the gearing up of the holiday season and the winding down of the semester. He had free periods, but they were eclectic, and after a long session, he had retreated to the faculty lounge for a cup of coffee.

Refilled mug in hand, he returned to his office to find Deidra inside, and cookies on his desk. That brought a smile to his lips. Stepping over the threshold and shutting the door, he asked, “Did you come for a chat?”

The girl was so entranced with whatever it was that she was looking at at the time that when the door closed she jumped, doing a complete 180. Her eyes were wide for a few moments before she realized it was just Dr. Neville. The momentary surprise as erased from her countenance and she smiled, very bright and happy. It seemed Dr. Neville was in a very good modd, which she liked because people who weren't in good moods were not fun to deal with. Of course, at the moment that didn't really matter. She let the thought just drift away.

" Something like that. It seemed like a better idea than some of the other things I'd thought of. Besides, last time I went out for funsies some rook went and nicked my stuff. So instead today I baked cookies. Umm....ya, Ceri got in a bit of a temper unhappy with me because I left her kitchen in quite a state." The girl sort of skip-hopped across the room over to where she had set the cookies. Her way of talking was hard to understand sometimes when she really went at it for long periods of time. She tended to ramble when allowed to do so.

" But it made good cookies anyway. I did apologize. Unfortunately she didn't find it amusing." Deidra shrugged, and pursed her lips, trying to figure out what she was doing just a moment ago. She turned to face him.

" Anyway, so how are you?"

The psychiatrist gave Deidra a gentle smile when she jumped, offered to reassure her that everything was fine, and that she wasn’t in trouble for being in his office. While it appeared that she’d been looking around, he hadn’t caught her in the process of doing anything incriminating; she hadn’t been snooping, after all. As such it was fine.

The telepath believed that most people preferred others who were in good moods; he certainly did as well. However, a hazard of his job was that many of the people who required his services were depressed, angry, frustrated, or otherwise in his office under duress. As such, he valued a happy visitor all the more.

The psychiatrist’s attention went to the cookies, which were enticing. “I assume you don’t mind if I have one?” While he assumed she had brought them for him, Sean always tried to be polite and not act in a presumptive manner. “And there’s something to be said for a thorough cleaning after baking. If you try that next time, she shouldn’t have a reason to be upset.”

Sean moved to sit to ease the strain on his knees and his lower back. “I’m fine,” he replied, and that was true. His home life was going far better than months ago when Josh had been avoiding him; he had never spoken of that to anyone, of course, since it hadn’t been Josh’s intention to push him away in his struggle with trauma. However, his mood was always better when he had a happy home life. “Today isn’t too stressful, and I don’t have as many sessions as I could. Additionally, you’ll notice that neither Vincent nor Sam is in here for fighting so I’d call it a good day.”

Of course, Vincent was interning with Josh which made a difference. But Hammel benefitted while his partner suffered.
