Traudel listens to Sonja's words, thoughtfully moving one hand through Niki's fur. Near the end a one-sided smile follows. "I doubt i could ask my 'patients' how they prefer to be treated - that would quickly go a route i wouldn't want." Giggling a bit at first, she attempts to mimic different voices. Seemingly having a great time by trying that out. "These goods are legal, just let me get them out here real quick and the problem goes away!" Smirk remains. "Ja Frau Oberleutnant, i'd love to be let go! Sure won't do it again. Swear on me honor as a pirate!"
With a light chuckle, Traudel pokes Niki gently once. "I'd be their favourite officer in no time, don't you think? But then i would get into a looot of trouble down the line and maybe end up just like them. Better don't, mhm?" Nodding once, as if an answer was already provided. Thought so, yep. Good talkings, Niki."
Sticking out her tongue once, Traudel looks back up at Sonja. "Nein, i get the rest. Already have one superior in mind who i'll barrage with questions. Something tells me he'd be down for that." The can of tuna she had brought with her is placed on a nearby table. "Almost forgot. Ahm... now. That out of the way... i am still somewhat concerned with the whole Nomad thing. Sounds like too effective of a defense might lure in forceful entry attempts into my mind - which would also be problematic. So it's a good mix of both? Be resilient to some extent and get out of there as soon as possible?"
The can is rotated a bit with her free hand, other one still busy with Niki. "Opposable thumbs are a great help, i can understand her. If i would not have those, i would also view those who have them as dutiful servants as long as they are inclined to surrender to my irresistible charm. I think i will try to follow her path for a while. Do what i like, that is. Rules and traditions do play a great role for me. But i should worry less about how others perceive me. Is it alright if i reuse our old communication channel for another appointment? I am already sure there will be more need in the future, but for now i have to sort what is going on in my head."
[MFE]~Healing.Heart, Starboard Biodome , Sigma 15 Niki listened to the Talk of the Humans and yaws about the weird things the Humans worried about, it was clear that the only thing you have to worry about is being Cute Enough so that the Human Slaves open the can for you. Niki simply enjoyed her life and the love that Traudel Gave her.
Sonja: Well I didn't mean to ask your "Customers" laughs I can think that it would make you into the most beloved Officer of the Nave in the Eyes of the Criminals for sure. But what I actually meant was to listen not only to those that are above you but also to those that are below you. A Lower Position can sometimes allow Insights on a Level that you as the Superior haven't even thought about, but would Greatly Benefit the Whole Operation. Come I want to show you something.
She got up and watched how Niki Jumped back on Taudels Shoulders while Sonja took the Cann of Tuna and one of Niki's Bowls before she leads her into the Biodome on the Starboard side of the Ship. From there she could see the Planet Hammersee in the Distance. It was a Smaller Version of the Biodomes that were used on the Freeports to Grow Food and Produce Oxygen in Deep Space. But even though the Biodomes on the Nephilim were Smaller than those on the Freeport but still had enough Room for small Scale Farming and a Green Park. Sonja Leads Traudel into a Small Pavilion and sits down with her. In the Distance was a group of Patients that were doing some Garden Work on some Small 1 Square Meter Patches of land.
Sonja: do you see the Patients over there? These Patients do something that we call Garden Therapy. Every Patient that wants can have a Patch of Land that haves 1 Square Meter. They can grow anything that they want on this patch of land, well almost anything, we don't allow Plants that can be Refined into Drugs or Poisons. But this Therapy is Highly Effective and helps the Patients a lot, and if you believe it or not the idea for this Therapy came from one of the Nurses that work for me.
She smiled and puts the Can of Tuna and the Bowl of Niki on the Table and looked at Traudel. she was happy that she wanted to Come back if she ever needs more help or just a friendly person to talk to. Sonja Liked Traudel and she would make sure that the Light that she was part of would never Hurt Traudel when Sonja was Around. Niki had of course noticed the Can of Tuna and jumped down from Traudels Shoulder and looked Curious at it and meowed as if she would ask what it is.
Sonja: if you want you can give the Tuna to Niki, I am sure that she will love you even more for it and that you will receive a special place for you in her heart that not many of her Servants will Reach. And of course, you can always come to me if you need someone to talk to about the things that worry you, or if you just need a Friend to spend some time with. The Channel that you open will stay open for as long as you want it to, and you can always reach me over this secure line.
Cat on her shoulders, Traudel follows Sonja through parts of the ship to their destination. Bright blue eyes wander left or right, depending on the scenery they passed. From time to time giving Niki some attention with her left hand. Having reached the pavillon, she sits down with Sonja. "Ahhh how wunderbar! I love love loooove nature. Always manages to calm me down." With a deep breath the view is taken in, then her attention shifts to current company.
"Ja, i do see them tending to the gardens. At first i thought this is ... well, somewhat of what you said. But more in line with - 'hey, we live and recover here, so we help out with some of the crops we grow.', this idea however? I hope the nurse that suggested it got rewarded accordingly. I would come here just for some peace and quiet and work on my little patch of land... " For a few moments, her eyes linger on a random plant. Whatever thoughts may have went throught her head that moment are interrupted by Niki meowing. Blinking several times, the can opener with a Rheinwehr label smirks and picks up the can Sonja had placed next to the bowl. "That is my tribute to you, oh great one."
Presenting the rather simple can of tuna to Niki, allowing her to sniff or otherwise interact with it. Traudel proceeds to open it, while putting on her best impression of a dignified butler. "Hereby i, humble servant Traudel Habermeyer, declare i spared no effort in procuring this delectable delicacy for you, Your Majesty." Careful to not spill the contents of the can, Traudel empties it into the bowl - then lowers her head subordinately and gracefully retreats from the bowl. Going the extra mile or simply having way too much fun with Niki. "Dinner is served, Your Majesty." Her facade does crumble towards the end, as Sonja receives a smirk
"Save the best for last, or how do they say? With that done, i will soon take my leave. Thank you again, Sonja. I'll make good use of this opportunity. I know not everyone even has that, sadly."
[MFE]~Healing.Heart, Starboard Biodome , Sigma 15 Sonja Smiled as she sees how Traudel Reacts to Nature all around her, it was clear that Places like this one had a Calming Effect on her. Sonja would make sure that the next Therapy Sessions that they had would take place in the Biodomes. Litle Pavilions like this one could be made Soundproof and Viewproof with the Push of a Button. Sonja had made preparations for Occasions like this and the Pavilion had some Hidden Walls that could come out of the Floor and make it into a Enclosed therapy Space.
Sonja: Yes we made her the Responsible Person for the Garden Therapy Project. she works hand in hand with the Therapy Staff and helps them and the Patients to Raise the Plants that they want to grow. And we gave her a Pay Raise for this Idea as well of course.
Sonja had to hold back a Laugh as she sees how Traudel Treats Niki and how her spoiled litle Cat Reacted to it. Niki walked over to the Bowl like a Queen and looked at every move that Traudel made like a Queen that watches over a Servant. It was a hilarious situation, and after a while Sonja couldnt hold back a Chuckle and looked at the scene with amusement.
Sonja: dont Spoil her so much, she is already a Spoiled one and behaves like a Litle Queen. You will make her be even more Spoiled. on the other hand she realy Deserves some Reward for being such a good Therapy Kitty.
She smiled and Giggles as she sees how niki enjoyed the Fish and Purrs Realy Loud while she Eats it. she Loved to see her Litle Companion so happy as she was often surounded by sad and Traumatized Pepole. Even when Niki was a Therapy Cat and a Friendly one too, Sonja made always sure that her litle Companion didnt overwork herself. She smiled friendly at Traudel, and this time it was more like the smile of a friend than those of a Doctor.
Sonja: you are Welcome Taudel, i am happy that i could help you. And you can come back anytime you want, no matter if its for a Therapy Session or just ot Cuddle with Niki. And if you Want to Leave us soon then we Will bring you to your Ship, and i am sure that Niki would love to Ride on your Shoulders again till you have to go. You know she only Rides on the Shoulders of those that she demed Worthy.
"I am afraid i have to, ja. Return to my duties, i did not take all that much time off for this first visit. But be assured, it certainly was not my last." A smile spreads slowly across Traudel's face while watching Niki eat for a bit. "I am certain a higher being as Niki knows exactly how to not lose track of herself. She'll be fine, besides... i can't help it." Slowly getting up, Traudel turns slightly to offer better access to her shoulders.
"So, if i am truly worthy then let me be a proper means of transportation for the time being, Niki. I'll return, promised." Obviously still having very much fun with the hole interaction, bright blue eyes slowly scan the green scenerey one last time for today. Gentle nod to herself follows. "Ja, ja i can imagine spending some quality time here. You created a suitable place that is able to soothe mind and body alike."
Preparing to head back to the hangar and her ship, Traudel waits for Niki to jump on her shoulders - and of course for Sonja to lead the way. "Guess to have and work on a patch of land in here i'd need to be a patient that stays here?"
[MFE]~Healing.Heart, Starboard Biodome , Sigma 15 Sonja Watched how Niki Finished her meal, the Litle Cat looked happy and Satisfied her Litle Kitty with that Good Meal. Niki Looked like the happiest Cat in the World and Licks her Lips as she enjoyed the final Taste of the Fish on her Tounge. Sonja shakes her head and chuckles as she looks at her kitty.
Sonja: She will be so Spoiled after this I will need Days before she will stop acting like a little Princess again. But you will be always welcome here Traudel no matter how much time you have. If you just need a Friend then you can come by and we Drink Tea Together and enjoy a nice chat.
She smiled Friendly and looked with Traudel over the Green Paradise among the Stars. She liked this Place and the Positive Vibe that it had. It was a place full of Life and Living where the Patients and the Staff of the Healing.Heart Could Relax and unwind.
Sonja: oh well I have a little Patch of Land for myself, but I am not a good Gardener and only grow some catnip there. If you want I could share my Field with you if you want. I don't have a Green Thumb and you are more than welcome to help me with that Patch of Land.
Niki Made a happy meow and laid down Comfortably on Traudels Shoulders after she finished her Meal. The Litle Kitty was happy about the Attention she got from her and rubs her head on Traudels Cheek as she enjoyed the Ride.
With Niki on her shoulders again, Traudel slowly starts to walk the way back to her ship. Stopping from time to time to look at parts of the flying hospital. "I'm glad to hear that i am welcome at any time. Sometimes a shift in our usual surroundings is direly needed, not that i wouldn't appreciate my comrades or anything... but i am very familiar with most of their viewpoints. And we share the same occupation, of course. So a few topics are best discussed with more than just those that were involved." Continuing on her way to the hangar.
"I doubt i am much better with plants or crops in general, but it doesn't hurt to try now, does it?" Chuckling once while petting Niki with one hand. "Catnip you say? That of course has to remain there, but maybe a few other things can grow on that patch of land, too. Nothing too fancy would be best, i'll have a look in the upcoming days."
With a heavy sigh, Traudel looks at the familiar view of the hangar and her own ship. "Now then, i guess this is auf Wiedersehen for now, Niki and Sonja. But i'll make sure to check in again in the future. Hopefully not because i need help, but simply for a bit of a chat. And hey, about Niki being spoiled - she deserves all the love and appreciation, don't you think so?" Winking once, Traudel walks closer to Sonja to offer a hug and a chance for Niki to swap shoulders or otherwise leave her current means of transportation.
[MFE]~Healing.Heart, Main Hangar , Sigma 15 Sonja smiled as she sees how Comfy Niki is on Traudels Shoulders. Even though her Cat is Friendly she doesn't allow anyone to be her Human Carrier. It was a Big Honor for Traudel that Niki enjoyed the place on her Shoulders and the Friendly Purrs and cuddles that Niki Gave to Traudel showed her that she sees Traudel as someone Special and Worthy.
Sonja: yes I understand that, my Work time isn't 9 to 5 Either. I have often to Work Longer or Have to Come in on my Free days to help with Patients or Help if a other Doctor is Sick. But even when you should be Felxible in your Work, you should never forget that you need Periods to Rest as well.
Sonja Chuckles with Traudel while Niki enjyoed the Pets she gets and Moves in a way on her Shoulder that she could fell the Pets of her Serveant even better and enjoy it some more.
Sonja: Well even if we both arent that good at Gardening we might be able to Grow something Together. Even if we have to Bribe her Majesty to give up some of her Catnip Land to us. But a lot of the Patients Grow things that Niki Likes to Snack Like Strawberrys and raspberries or blueberries, So i am sure she will be able to Give us some of that space.
Sonja smiled and was a bit sad as they reached the Hangar as she had Realy Enjoyed her Time with Traudel and had liked to spend more time with her. But she understood that she had to go. Sonja smiled as she offerd her the Hug and accepted it and Pulled Traudel Close to her like a Old Friend that she knew for Years. While she did that Niki Switched Sides and laid down on Sonja´s shoulders.
Sonja: you are welcome here anytime you want. Niki and i will Welcome you like a Part of our Family. And if you need my Professional Help again then you will get it. And well yes of course she does but if you Spoil her Too much she will start to get Fat. She is quite the Lazy Kitty already and she likes to be spoiled much more than is good for her. So Love and Apriciation yes, but Spoiling no. Its a Hard Balance to find if you ask me.
She laughs and smirks as she takes a step back and watched Traudel from a Safe Spot till she had Lifted off and left the Hangar with her Ship.
