The idea for Therapy came to me whilst watching a crime show "My Strange Addiction" and seeing how therapists play their part for both the criminals and police/detectives. So, I made up my therapist character based on the therapist in the show, and ended up using her mainly for roleplaying. Around about the same time, I found a fanfic on a facebook page with the characters of DGM going into therapy, so I decided, hey, what the heck? I'll write one too.
I have not copied anything besides obviously the idea of therapy, however, you should check out TheDivineLotus989 story "DGrayman in therapy". It's a lot better and funnier than mine and where the idea to write this fanfic originated from.
This is my first fanfic, so I hope you enjoy! Now on with it!
The Scientist
It was a beautiful, sunny day as the bright sun soared over the Black Order. Two rival Exorcists finally returned home after a hectic mission that lasted a long and tiring week. Allen Walker and Yuu Kanda were somewhat happy to be home, although neither of them showed the expression, you could tell by their sigh of relief as they entered each of their chambers.
With his stomach growling, and mouth drooling from the alluring smell of food, Allen made his way to the cafeteria, but, before he had a chance to get through the doors, he was stopped by Johnny Gill. He quickly grabbed Allen and began leading him away from the cafeteria.
"Sorry Allen-kun, you're needed in Komui-san's office immediately!" Johnny said as he continued on the path to Komui's office. Allen gave a scouring look, but nonetheless, followed Johnny hoping the visit would not last long.
Allen entered the room joining Lenalee, Lavi, Krory and Miranda who were already seated near Komui's desk.
"Allen-kun! You've arrived!" Komui said in a somewhat jolly voice.
"What are we here for?" Allen asked whilst taking a seat next to Lavi.
"Once our last member arrives, I'll tell you why I called you all here" And with that, Komui took a sip from his coffee and sat down behind his desk.
A short while after, Reever arrived with Kanda who shrugged him off and took a seat, displeased by the sudden meeting. Allen was regretting coming, but sat patiently waiting for Komui to speak. As Reever left, silence filled the room.
"Well, why were we all called here?" Lavi asked uncomfortably breaking the silence.
"Well, Lavi, as some of you may or may not know a new member of the science section will be arriving in a few short days…" Komui began.
"What does that have to do with us?" Kanda hissed, implying that he did not want to be there.
Komui sighed. "Our new member is a specialist on innocence and also happens to be a professional therapist."
"Therapist?" Lavi implied.
"Yes, therapist. Being an exorcist isn't always an easy task. Unfortunately for you guys, you will all be taking group therapy lessons depending on your results."
"Results, results of what?" Allen asked surprised.
"I will be giving you all a therapeutic intervention, and based on those results, will depend on which few of you will be taking a group therapy lesson."
"When is this 'intervention' taking place?" Kanda hissed again.
"Right now!" Komui answered in a devilishly cheerful manner.
Kanda of course, thought it was ridiculous and was already halfway to the door.
"Kanda, do not blame me, the higher ups allowed for this. It's not just you guys; all exorcists are taking the exact same test." Komui tried reassuring him.
"Tch. Like I care"
"Listen, you're going to have to do this whether by choice or by force, so I suggest you sit back down or you will be forced to come back later."
Kanda stood by the door for a moment then sat back down with black clouds hovering over his head.
"This is ridiculous." Kanda commented with his head held high.
Komui took another sip from his coffee then grabbed a clip board with sheets of paper attached to it. He stood up and grabbed 6 black notebooks out of his desk, handing them to Lenalee who then handed them out to the rest.
Komui took a deep breath. "Now then, you are required to keep a diary. Writing down what happens through your day. You will keep this diary for 2 weeks..."
"What about when we go on missions?" Allen interrupted.
"Even when you are out on missions, you must keep track of your diary."
"Tch. What a waste of time." Kanda said bluntly.
"As long as you do the work, then you won't get into trouble."
Allen's stomach growled loudly along with Krory who was drooling out of hunger. Kanda was tapping his foot out of impatience. Lavi rolled his eyes and scanned the room, hoping to see something that would distract him. Lenalee and Miranda sat there quietly, both wishing they were elsewhere.
"I know you are all getting quite impatient, but once we finish the intervention, you will all be free to leave." Komui said as he put his coffee cup down.
"This is so stupid…" Kanda commented.
Komui ignored Kanda's comment and left the room only to return shortly after holding a roll of toilet paper.
"Alright, now we're going to do a test called 'Take As Much As You Want To Get The Job Done'"
"Are you serious?" Lavi asked, slightly blushing whilst pointing to the toilet paper roll.
"You are going to pass around this roll of toilet paper, but you are allowed to take as much or as little as you like, as long as you do not take the entire roll, unless that is really how much you need..." Komui said with a chuckle at the end.
Komui then sat everyone in a circle, although it took longer than he anticipated because of Kanda's lack of teamwork, he then handed the roll of toilet paper to Allen, who was the first one to take as much as he wanted. Going around in the circle; Allen ripped off 10 pieces. Lenalee ripped of 5 pieces. Miranda ripped off 4 pieces. Krory ripped off 5 pieces. Kanda tore off 8 pieces. Finally, Lavi ripped off 11 pieces.
"This is so embarrassing…" Lenalee said whilst holding onto her pieces, blushing.
"Quite humiliating…" Krory added.
Lavi was trying to hold in his abrupt laughter, though it didn't take long for him to burst.
"You shouldn't be laughing, you took the most!" Kanda bit off.
"Oh calm down Yuu, where's your sense of humour?" Lavi bit back.
"Don't call me Yuu, you stupid rabbit!"
"Shut up BaKanda" Allen added, hoping the two would stop fighting.
"Stay out of this Moyashi!"
"Alright, alright, calm down everyone. We don't want to start another war right now, save it for later." Komui said calming everybody down. "Okay, now the real fun begins! For every piece of toilet paper you ripped off, you must tell the group one thing about yourself."
"Go to hell" Kanda snarled.
"Kanda, the longer you take to cooperate, the longer I have to keep you all in here."
Everyone glared at Kanda, almost as if they were all sending him a telepathic message to cooperate.
"Tch. Whatever!" he finally reddened.
"Alright, going around in the same order as before, tell the group something about you. It can be a favourite colour, food, drink, hobby, singer, or book. It's entirely up to you! Now…begin!"
Allen: Well, my name is Allen Walker. My birthday is on Christmas. My favourite food is mitarashi dango. My hobbies are making money and eating. I love the circus. My favourite game is poker and black jack. I have a phobia of hammers, and my hair used to be red!
"Great start Allen-kun! Let us continue on…"
Lenalee: Okay Onii-san. My name is Lenalee Lee. My birthday is February 20th. My older brother is Komui Lee; the chief supervisor of Black Order. My favourite food is chocolate cake and my hobby is cooking.
"Excellent my sweet sister Lenalee-chan!" Komui said in a high pitched tone. "Can we try telling things about you that the others perhaps do not know?"
Miranda: Uh…um…alright. My name is Miranda Lotto. Uh…my favourite food is pears. I like self analyzation and I'm really, REALLY sorry Komui-sama, but I stole some food from the cafeteria the other night! I didn't mean to, I just couldn't sleep, so I went down and was feeling hungry and…
"Miranda! Please! That's not quite the thing you need to tell, but thanks for sharing." Komui said in a reassuring matter.
"Alright, let's continue on…"
Krory: M-my name is Arystar Krory the third. Akuma blood tastes like…tomato juice. Um…I brush my teeth almost 6 times a day. My favourite food is…*tearing up*…Eliade's blood and I miss her sooo much!
"It's alright Krory…thank you for sharing…let's continue"
Kanda: Tch, this is stupid. The name is Kanda. Birthday is June 6th. Favourite food is Soba and Tempura. I like spicy food. Favourite colour is black. I hate candy and sweets. I hate scientists more than anything. I also hate robots. Done?
Komui sighed again. "Yes, yes, done. Your turn Lavi"
Lavi: Cool! My name is Lavi. My birthday is August 10th. My favourite food is Yakiniku whilst my least favourite food is Wasabi. My hobbies are sleeping, reading, teasing Allen and annoying Kanda~ I have a particular fascination with numbers. I've had 48 other names in the past and I'm very interested in older woman…with blonde hair. But I'm open to try new things!
He finished with a smile. Everyone shook their head, not surprised by his outgoing temperament.
"I hope you all remembered each other's answers!" Komui smiled.
"Why the hell do we have to remember the others answers?" Kanda snapped.
"Because you are now going to write a small summary on one of your peers!"
"Che. How annoying."
Komui then handed everyone a small slip of paper, a blank piece of paper and pen.
"Look at the small slip of paper I gave you. It will have the name of the person that you must write a small summary about. I'll give you 20 minutes before I collect them for analysis."
"You can't be serious…" Lavi commented.
"It appears so…" Allen sighed.
Looking at their small slips of paper, Allen opened to see he had Lenalee, Lenalee opened to see she had Krory, while Lavi opened up to see he had Miranda. Miranda got Kanda. Krory got Lavi and Kanda, unfortunately for him, got Allen. It took only a short 10 minutes before everyone finished and handed in their papers. Komui quickly wrote down a few notes before dismissing everyone. As quick as a flash, everyone left Komui's office. Allen, Krory, Lavi, Lenalee and Miranda went straight to the cafeteria (Allen and Krory went straight for food) meanwhile Kanda headed back to his room to rest. Allen was already gauging himself on his own buffet whilst the others sat quietly thinking over this morning's occurrence.
Komui sat down at his desk and serenely read over everyone's summaries growing more worried as he read on.
'Lenalee Lee, younger sister to chief supervisor Komui Lee of the Black Order. Her birthday is on the 20th of February. Lenalee is very sweet, thoughtful and definitely cute in her brothers eyes. She enjoys cooking and absolutely loves eating chocolate cake. I count her as one of my best friends although; she can be a bit controlling at times. –Allen Walker'
'Arystar Krory the third is a very kind and honest person, though he does tend to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Due to his innocence having 'vampiric' attributes, he thinks Akuma blood tastes like tomato juice. When he first met Allen and Lavi, he was living alone in his castle with an Akuma named Eliade. Although she was an Akuma, Krory loved her very greatly and has left him with a deep hole in his heart. –Lenalee Lee'
'Miranda Lotto, a shy girl that constantly apologises for everything she does, such as when she stole food from the cafeteria the other night, which wasn't really a big deal. Her favourite food is pears and for some strange reason, likes self analyzation? There's a few other secrets she has, but I better not tell you (Bookman code and all) –Lavi'
'I don't know Kanda too well, mostly because he is very scary and I seem to annoy him no matter how many times I apologise. I know he was born on the 6th of June and his favourite food is without a doubt Soba and Tempura. He hates a lot of things like the scientists, finders, robots, sweets and Allen (probably me as well). I don't know much about him, and I'm not sure if I want to. –Miranda Lotto'
'Lavi. Junior Bookman. Besides Allen and Lenalee, he is the only other person I can call my close friend. He likes reading, sleeping and sometimes annoying Allen and Kanda (basically asking to be killed). He's very childish but super caring and kind; I know he'll make a great bookman someday. –Arystar Krory'
'Moyashi is nothing but a gluttonous beast. He likes playing poker and black jack only because he CHEATS no thanks to his sex-loving, drunk mentor Cross! He likes the circus because he's a freak with that cursed arm of his. What more is there to say? –Kanda'
"Why am I not surprised?" Komui remarked looking at everyone's papers.
