Just a couple things out of place; “see his lips”, “Were they there”, and, to me, psychiatric sounds better than psychiatry in the sense it’s being used.

Great ending. Reminded me of when Q put humanity on trial, and forced Picard to represent us.

Where this may go, I have no idea, but I’m enjoying the trip, so far.

Ohhhh! I forgot completely about that ST:TNG episode. Good memory, and you are dating yourself unless you watch reruns.

watch reruns, when I can. I still love the show. Though, it’s not entirely impossible I caught the original airing. :p

I like how you set up his and our confidence nicely before that last question. And I too remember that ST:TNG episode, truly a classic. And I know darn well I caught the original airing.

I cannot wait to hear the question. I wish I’d been able to read these as they came out. It has been fascinating catching up, I look forward to the next installment.
