I sat in my office waiting for my next patient. This was going to be a hard one, given how he manages to be both vague and complex in his motives. I looked up as I heard the door open, and in walked what was most definitely the youngest and most attractive patient I have ever had. While he was pretty handsome and looked very princely, with his dark red hair, huge sideburns, and green eyes, and I will admit I couldn't help but find him a little attractive, I knew I couldn't be attractive to him given why he was here in the first place. Before I could greet him, he turned around and approached me. "Dr. Russell?" He smiled, gently took my hand and bowed. "I am Prince Hans of the Southern Isles."

"It's nice to meet you. Please, have a seat." Well that was certainly a nice change, I thought as we took our seats, a male patient actually greeting me politely instead of either being rude or hitting on me. "So Hans, if you don't mind I'm just going to ask you some questions."

"Ask me anything."

"First of all, tell me about your childhood, about your relationship with your family."

"Honestly, it was horrible. I mean I can't complain too much considering that I grew up in a castle and got to live every boy's dream of being a prince, but it still didn't make up for the pain of feeling invisible and ignored my whole life. In fact, three of my brothers pretended that I didn't exist for two years. So after putting up with it my whole life, I realized that I didn't need anyone to make me happy, as long as I had power, people who would look up to me and depend on me. And considering that I was thirteenth in line, I knew that the only way to guarantee my position would be to marry into another kingdom."

"And you didn't have anyone outside of your family? No friends or love interests or anything?"

"Nope, nothing."

"But why exactly did you want to be king? Was it because you thought you would be a legitimately better ruler than your brothers or was it because you wanted the love and attention from subjects that you never received from your family, the need to feel significant and important?"

"Honestly, it's both. I needed to feel like I matter, like my ideas and actions make a difference in everyone's lives, thus earning everyone's unconditional love and respect."

"So when you were left in charge of Arendelle and making sure everyone was okay, that was you being a legitimately good ruler and not tricking everyone into screwing them over?"

"Yes."

"Let's talk about the whole Arandelle thing. After all, that is the reason why you're here."

"Alright. What would you like to talk about?"

"First of all, out of every kingdom in the land, why Arendelle?"

"Because I had to pick what was available, I couldn't afford to be picky. Luckily though I picked a very nice kingdom."

"Okay, I know why you chose to court Anna instead of Elsa, due to her coldness and tendency to isolate herself, but when you first met Anna, did you know she was the princess?"

"Honestly I didn't. But as soon as she told me who she was, I made it my best effort to win her over and get close to her."

"And it seemed like your interactions with Anna felt very natural. I know she was just a pawn in your plan, but did you have any interest in her whatsoever?"

"Of course I liked her, she was a nice girl and I had fun with her at the ball. But did I love her or care for her? Of course not. At the end of the day she was nothing more than a means to an end."

"So let's say your plan followed through, you killed Elsa and married Anna and you're now the king of Arendelle. Would you have killed Anna or would you have spent the rest of your life in a loveless marriage?"

"I wouldn't kill Anna right away, but would've built her trust up enough so that I could do it in a way that would make it look like an accident, just like with Elsa. Although given how gullible she is, it probably wouldn't have taken very long. As for why, well, the whole point of my plot was for the people to love me, to depend on me, and for how warm and loving Anna was and how much the people would love her, I knew that I would be seen as nothing more than her husband rather than their king."

"And what about Elsa? Despite her initial coldness, did you have any feelings for her? After all, if she wasn't so isolated she would've been the target of your fake affection."

"I had zero feelings for Elsa. I barely even knew her. What, do people expect me to have some sort of feelings for her just because of the two or three times we spoke?"

"Alright, last question. If you were to return home to the Southern Isles, what would you do? Any plans on going back to Arendelle at all?"

"Honestly, I'm not sure. Most likely I would be on the lookout for a new kingdom to take control of. As for returning to Arendelle, why would I go back? For revenge? At this point, trying to kill Elsa or Anna would be pointless considering that I would gain nothing out of it. Let's say I did do that, then there would be no one in charge of the throne, causing war to break out and gaining the throne to become an even bigger hassle, which to me seems like it's not worth the risk. I figured that I waited this long, I could always find a kingdom with another princess, kill her parents if need be, and basically forgo my initial plan."

"Alright, I think I have everything I need," I said as I closed my notebook and stood up. "Thank you Prince Hans."

"And thank you, Dr. Russell," he said taking my hand and bowing before exiting the room.

For a ruthless sociopath, I liked him, at least as one of the only patients to ever not make me feel uncomfortable. I made my way over to my computer to see who was next when I was greeted with an unexpected surprise.
