[Well, he wasn't expecting a familiar face when he walked into the room.]

And here I thought I'd be talking to some seventeen-eyed alien or something.

playing_thefool May 20 2011, 22:08:53 UTC

[He pushes his glasses up, as many anime characters that wear them are wont to do.]

Nope, just the four. How can I help you?

spamsnightqueen May 20 2011, 23:21:50 UTC

Well, I guess I'm here to talk. That's what therapists are for, right?

playing_thefool May 21 2011, 02:06:39 UTC

Well, yeah, I was taking that as a given. About what, however... well, therein lies the question.

spamsnightqueen May 21 2011, 02:58:25 UTC

I guess you're right about that.

[He's gonna take this time to sit down in a chair.]

It's a bit strange, really... I'm not really looking for counseling, but for advice.

playing_thefool May 21 2011, 03:03:21 UTC

Hm. I'm a bit more of a help-you-help-yourself type, personally, but I can swing that, I think. What'd you want to know?

spamsnightqueen May 21 2011, 03:53:46 UTC

Thanks, Seta-san.

Believe it or not, I'm actually looking for relationship advice.

playing_thefool May 21 2011, 04:05:28 UTC

Oh. Oh man, I actually might not be the person to ask. I mean, I can't exactly speak from personal experience, you know?

spamsnightqueen May 21 2011, 04:30:13 UTC

Really?

[A beat.]

Oh man... Sorry about that. I thought talking to someone would help, but I wasn't sure who to ask.

playing_thefool May 21 2011, 05:01:18 UTC

Well, I mean, it's not like I've got zero experience or anything, it's just kind of... minimal. I don't mind trying, though, if you really need help. Just take my advice with a grain of salt if it sounds too off or something.

spamsnightqueen May 21 2011, 05:09:05 UTC

You don't mind? [He seems a bit relieved at that.]

Thanks... I'll be sure to. I just kinda needed to talk about it with someone.

playing_thefool May 21 2011, 05:46:08 UTC

Well, talk away, then. 'S what I'm here for, right?

spamsnightqueen May 21 2011, 20:26:30 UTC

That's right. [A small laugh.]

Well, you know Minako-chan, right? She's friends with Minato. I don't know if you knew this, but her and me have been really close friends since we were back home. I like her, and I know she likes me, but...

[He trails a bit, frowning.]

I'm getting the same feeling as I did before. That her being with me will only make her sad.

playing_thefool May 23 2011, 07:02:01 UTC

[A month ago, this might have been a very awkward conversation. Luckily, he's moved on since then.]

I've had that feeling before. I've got a pretty good idea of what you mean, or at least I'm in the general area.

Personally, I went for it anyway. We talked about it, decided it would be worth the risk, and you know what? No matter what happens next, I'm happier now than I've ever been, and I know I won't regret it.

So, as a therapist, it is my professional recommendation that you hit that. Sound good?

spamsnightqueen May 24 2011, 05:20:53 UTC

You think...?

[Wait... Did Souji really say to hit that? That causes a snort and some laughter.]

Well, I don't know if I can exactly 'hit that', but I think that does sound good.
