Disclaimer: Not mine. Satisfied?
Eh heh, yeah. Here's the long awaited Chapter 2 of Screwed. Sorry for being such an ass and taking so long. I'm trying to catch up on all of the stories I have to update yes, Surface Reflection is next, don't worry now that I'm out of school. Also, I've been distracted by an RP most of last semester, so...I have something of an excuse? Yes? Yes?
to you, review if you like, this one's for the patient and true
"So, Mr. Goku, tell me about your childhood."
"Not "Mister"—just Goku!"
"Alright, Goku."
"…"
"Mm?"
"Well…I don't remember my childhood."
"You don't remember?"
"Yeah, I just said that."
"Why do you think you don't remember?"
"…dunno. Just don't."
"You must have a reason."
"Nope. Just can't remember."
"Was there any traumatic incident in your past that might have precipitated a sudden loss of memory?"
"…wha…"
"sigh"
"…"
"Did something bad happen to you that could have hurt your head?"
"I hurt my head all the time. pause Sanzo hurts it a lot!"
"Sanzo does, does he. What does Sanzo do?"
"He hits me on the head with a paper fan!!!"
"…does he. Tell me, Goku, how do you feel about Sanzo hitting you with the fan?"
"It hurts!!!"
"Physically or emotionally?"
"Um…I just told you. It hurts, because he's got this HUGE fan and he's whacking me over the head with it, and I'm all "OO! OW, SANZO STOP IT! THAT HURTS SO BAD!" but he doesn't stop, and it hurts worse, and it hurts so bad I could die but no one's helping and it hurts so bad and someone should help but everyone just stands there and sometimes they laugh and…"
"…hold on, Goku. You said they sometimes laugh? And no one helps you?"
"Yeah, no one helps. It really sucks, you know?"
"…sounds like it. Does Sanzo do this frequently?"
"He does it a lot, if that's what you mean."
"Does that make you angry?"
"YEAH!"
"Calm down, Goku. I'm sure we can solve this problem."
"…wha…?"
"We can get Sanzo to stop hurting you."
"You can?"
"Of course."
"But…"
"But what, Goku?"
"I…dunno."
"Speak up. I want to help you."
"I…kinda like it. When he hits me, I mean."
"…why?"
"Cause…it shows me he cares, I guess. Maybe."
SESSION TRANSCRIPT: SANZO
"So, Mr. Sanzo—"
"That's Sanzo-sama to you, asshole."
"Very well. Sanzo-sama then. You seem to have a bit of an…anger problem, shall we say."
"None of your business."
"I see. Well, I thought we might discuss some more productive ways to release your anger."
"Shut up."
"Instead of physically and verbally venting on others, perhaps you could engage in some mild exercise. I understand yoga has a proven positive effect…"
sounds of cursing and objects beings thrown
SESSION TRANSCRIPT: HAKKAI
"So, Mr. Hakkai...I understand that you've had some anger management issues in the past, similar to your friend Mr. Sanzo."
"No, not at all."
"Wouldn't you consider murdering over twelve hundred people for the sake of one woman a little excessive? Perhaps –slightly- overdoing it?"
"No, not at all."
"Why not?"
"I'm afraid I couldn't say, sir. If you know me that well already, why be repetitive?"
"…I want to hear it from you."
"But surely that would be pointless, sir. You've already displayed a sincere determination not to listen to me."
"…I'm a therapist. I'm here to listen."
"Then why aren't you listening to me, sir?"
"I am listening to you."
"laugh That's strange. I thought you hadn't heard a word I've said."
"If you're referring to my questioning of your answers, that's simply because I needed the truth."
"The truth, sir? I would never dream of lying to you."
"The first step to solving a problem is admitting you have a problem. Come now, you know you have an anger management issue."
"I know only what you tell me, sir."
"…Mr. Hakkai, you must take our sessions together seriously in order to progress."
"I am taking them seriously, sir. Far more so than you, if I may be so bold. Ah hah, I'm being impolite again. Must be slipping. I apologize."
"It's not necessary to apologize, only to tell me what you feel."
"How am I to answer a question that hasn't been asked yet?"
"…it's the usual assumption."
"I'm not very emotionally intelligent, sir. You may have to help me."
"…"
SESSION TRANSCRIPT: GOJYO
"So, Mr. Gojyo—"
"Just Gojyo."
"Gojyo. How do you feel about yourself?"
"Terrible."
"…really? Would you mind explaining that? Exactly what kind of a "terrible" do you feel?"
"As if my life is going to end. The world sucks, and everything in it sucks, and I can't seem to find the energy anymore. Nothing matters."
"You are aware, of course, that these are classic symptoms of depression?"
"Depression? What the hell are you talking about?"
"You feel as if you're worthless, don't you?"
"I didn't say that."
"But you do."
"I don't. pause I just need to get laid, is all."
"…laid. You attribute your current melancholy to your need for sex?"
"Well, yeah. I thought that was obvious, ya know? I mean, what's a guy supposed to do when he's locked up in a laboratory like this for weeks without seeing even one woman? There's no women, no porn…after a month of this, you're starting to look pretty good, if you know what I mean."
"pause Excuse me? Are you admitting to homosexual inclinations?"
"Did I say that?"
"You implied it."
"Ya know, man, when was the last time you had a woman?"
"What's…that's irrelevant."
"This is supposed to be a "sharing of feelings", right? I just wanna know."
"That's not your concern."
"Fine, but how am I supposed to trust you if you don't share stuff with me, if ya know what I mean. Here I am, pouring out my heart to you, and you're sitting there staring at me like a fish and talking like a dictionary. How am I supposed to relate, man? You're like a computer."
"…"
