"Sing?"
The counselor tilted her head, interest piqued by a shade and her expression a mix of bemusement and curiosity. "Is... forgive me, but your physiology... you can produce singing tones similar to the conventional humanoid ones?"
Siphon's cheeks turned a slightly deeper shade of blue than the rest of his face. He considered for a moment before saying, "Well, most of the ah... singing that I do is in Aquarnix. I have always thought about trying to sing in a more humanoid form, however I suppose I am a bit leary of how the result might sound. " he chortled, "Singing is another expressive at for us, it can all also be a bit personal, as some forms are ment for the attraction of a mate." Siphon cleared his throat as some of the natural color returned to his face.
The counselor just blinked once, slowly.
"Naturally," was all she said. If she was amused by the Doctor's embarrassment, she hid it very well. "Very well. I suppose the final thing I am interested in is whether or not you have previous experience in utilizing counseling services? Do you believe that you would recognize when you might be in need of counseling and would be able and willing to seek myself or another counselor out as a result?"
Katriel's glance became a little more pointed when she looked towards him for his response.

Katriel's glance became a little more pointed when she looked towards him for his response.
His eyes glanced upwards as he seemed to search for words. "As of yet, I have not had to utilize those services out side of evaluations such as these. I...could certainly recognize the need, I'd like to think that I am very perceptive of my own psyche." At that point he sighed a little, 'honesty' he reminded himself. "I cannot...promise that I will seek help counselor, I sometimes feel awkward in these situations. I think, one could find me...erratic, that is subject to change very quickly and often..." he seems to trail off and stops. "I will remain aware of when to seek help and will do my best to make myself seek it."
He forced a bit of a re-assuring smile, earnestly though.
Katriel smiled faintly and inclined her head. "I cannot be dissatisfied with that answer. But please let me know if there's anything I can do to make such things easier for you."
She made a final notation on her PADD. "Well. I believe I have enough information to make out my evaluation, Doctor. Have you any questions for me, perhaps, before we close?"

The doctor stood slowly and stretched for a moment before answering. "Not at the moment, counselor. I thank you for your time and I hope to see you around the base." Siphon began to move for the door before politely pausing to see if she had anything else for him.
Katriel likewise came to her feet and nodded politely to Siphon as he left. "Thank you, Doctor, for your time. I'll try to have your record updated within the week. Have a good afternoon."
He bowed deeply before emitting an echo location in salutation, turning and stepping out the door.
