[Jean doesn't allow any uncertainty on her face, not today. She's here to offer her help; there's no room for her own troubles.

She's in her office in the infirmary, hands clasped on her desk. She always dresses formally, when she goes here - it's silly, but it makes her feel more professional. Today she's in a deep green blazer and black dress slacks.]

I know a few people were seeing Alana Bloom. I'm not as qualified or experienced as she was, but I'm always here if you need someone else to talk to. My office is in the infirmary. I don't have any formal hours - you just need to contact me, and tell me when you want to come. It can be weekly, monthly, or just whenever you feel like it.

[She leans forward to take the device and show people the room. It's cozy, with soft dim light and plush arm chairs. A couch, of course. There are pictures on the walls, on her desk. Friends and family, on the Barge and off.]

It doesn't have to be here - we can go wherever you feel comfortable.

[She smiles, warm and soft.]

This is open to everyone. I won't tell anybody, and I won't do anything you don't want me to.

[Private to Esther]

[Her smile deepens. She's a bit nervous here, as well - Esther has been through so much, and Jean just isn't sure how much she can do, or what choices she should make. But they've been doing pretty well so far, considering, and this can only help, right?]

I think we should talk, if you're okay with that.

[Private to Friends]

[No nerves here, but some of her worry shines through.]

How is everyone?
