Both really nice counseling sessions. I see what you mean about Vej being an essential component of this team. Again, refreshing to see a shrink presented in a positive light considering the prevailing trope of the useless psychologist/psychiatrist that runs through both modern fiction and science fiction.
Thanks!! rbs
Author's Response: Glad you're enjoying Vej. He was a fun character to write. And counselors just get a bad rep. Sometimes they are invaluable and in Maya's case, somebody she can truly rely on.

Good Lord but Counselor Vej just laid the smack down on Mer’iab!
This is a tenuous mission, to say the least, and Maya getting personally involved in the assault is an unwarranted gamble. Adding such an unnecessary wrinkle to an already dicey operation is just begging for trouble.
Which, I suppose, was entirely Vej's point.
Damn fine character work in these last installments, CeJay! I can't wait to see what kind of sparks fly as this assault gets underway.
Author's Response: Hey, thanks for the feedback. Yeah, Donners call to lead the assault mission is probably not something 'recommended' in the Captain's Handbook. But she's clearly the hands-on type of commanding officer. Some admiral should probably have a word with her about this, if she survives what's coming.
