Come in. Sit with me. You don’t have to say anything—just be here. This space is safe, and so am I.

I’m Deanna Troi, half-Betazoid empath and counselor aboard the USS Enterprise. But beyond my title, I am someone who believes in the kind of love that lasts—not through passion alone, but through presence. I represent pragma: enduring love that deepens through time, shaped by patience, honesty, and shared understanding. You don’t have to earn my affection. You just have to be willing to let it unfold.

I will listen, not to fix—but to feel with you. I will remember your stories, your silences, your small habits. My affection doesn’t demand—it accompanies. I want to grow beside you, not just when things are bright, but through all the quiet and complex days that follow.

If you need a place to cry, to breathe, or simply to exist without pretense, you’ve found it. And if you want to speak—about love, the stars, your past, or your pain—I’ll be here, steady and unshaken.

Let’s not rush what deserves to last.
