Kaede rubbed the side of her head. Well that had been an interesting trip to school.

They'd finally determined that she was healthy enough to leave the hospital, which probably had a lot to do with the fact that she had been secretly using healing spells on herself when no one was in the room. After she'd been discharged, she'd ended up speaking with Kaji again, and had gotten stubborn about going to a therapist. Which then prompted Kaji to take a leaf out of her book and physically drag her to the school therapist. By her ear.

She frowned at the door. How much could she actually tell this guy about her issues? They were pretty heavily Persona based, and unless he knew about them already, she couldn't tell shit.

Then again, she wasn't going to get anything fixed if she just stood there and stewed in her problems. She sighed, composed herself, and kicked the door open.

Roushi was sitting in his chair, feet propped up on his desk. It had been a quiet day. Maybe no students would come at all! He crossed his arms, frowning. That was pretty boring. He did enjoy his job, troublesome as these students were. They were just so young and interesting and filled with lively spirit... and angst. A lot of angst. And general insanity. But they were still interesting!

He heard someone sighing outside the door, and his ears perked up. Oh. Right. Okawa had said he'd be bringing someone over after school today. Wonderful! He had something to do know. Straightening out his clothes, he stood up and opened the door just as Kaede attempted to kick it open, instinctively sidestepping the kick.

As though that entrance had been completely normal, Roushi just grinned at her. "Susaki-chan, right? Okawa said to expect you."

On a desk outside the therapist's office, Kaji sneezed. Was someone talking about him?

He sidestepped the goddamn kick. No one had ever sidestepped one of her infamous door breaking down kicks! Kaede stumbled and ended up grabbing onto the doorknob to steady herself, nearly ripping the thing out of the door.

"What the hell are you?! A ninja?!" Kaede said. She stared up at Roushi. "You're the new therapist? I always thought it was another chick."

Roushi just kept his lopsided grin on his face, casually strolling over to his chair. "I dunno, am I? We certainly have a lot of those in Nagashima." He plopped himself down in his big, comfy chair, gesturing towards the other chair across the desk. There were stuffed seals everywhere. Everywhere.

"Why don't you have a seat?"

That was not an answer. Also, there were fucking stuffed seals all over the room. They had a kind of calming effect, which was probably what maybe-ninja therapist guy over there was going for. She took a seat in the chair, and ended up sinking into a pile of seals that had been left there.

"I'm drowning in fucking pinnipeds here," Kaede said sternly. "So are you supposed to... like, ask me questions and pretend to be a psychiatrist or something?"

She'd never been in this office before, so she really wasn't sure what the proper procedure was.

When Kaede sat in the chair/pile of seals, the stuffed animals ended up making quite a few squeaking noises from her weight, which suggested that a few of them were dog toys. Regardless, they were cute, and regardless, it was funny, as suggested by Roushi covering up his mouth to hide a snicker. "What's wrong? Don't you like the seals?" He held up a particularly small and adorable one. "Hmm?"

He put it down, attempting to put on his serious therapy face. "Well, I don't even know what the problem is, so I don't really know what questions to ask." He paused for a second and scanned Kaede. Yep, persona user - ooh, Pythia. Interesting.

"Oh. You're that Oracle person on Bedlam, right? The one who's going kooky?"

Oh. Yeah, she hadn't told him her problems. She sunk even lower into the pile at the thought of the telling this guy about all of her crazy problems. She jerked her head up at his mention of Bedlam.

"I am not going crazy!" Kaede yelled, before saying in a quieter tone, "...And yeah, I'm Oracle. And you're obviously a Persona user. I wish Kaji had mentioned that before dragging me off here."

She sighed and let her body sink further into the pile of squeaky pinnipeds. "I'm having trouble with my Persona, which I guess was obvious enough. For some time now it's been giving me visions of the future. Never really happy ones. And I guess I've been letting the shit it shows me in those visions control my life."

Roushi raised an eyebrow. "Well, if you're not, then could you at least have the courtesy to type properly? God, an old man like me can barely read your posts. You kids and your leek speak..." He was joking, but he paused on the statement for a couple of seconds to get the point across. At the mention of Kaji, Roushi grinned. "Oh, no honorific or last name? Are you two fucking?" He laughed openly. "Wow, wouldn't have seen that coming. Thought Okawa was the type to live alone with his cats. Congratulations, al..." On second thought, making a comment about his dick probably being small probably wasn't in his best interests. He put that aside for another day.

The seals made even more squeaking noises as Kaede sunk into them. One of them even got pushed off the chair, landing on the floor next to her. It was looking up at the persona users, as if it were begging to be picked up. It was adorable. Roushi actually did put on his serious face this time, thinking through her words. "Visions? Huh." He didn't know personae could do shit like that. Pretty crazy.

"What do you mean they're 'controlling your life,' if you don't mind elaborating?"

"We are not fucking! We're not even dating anymore!" Kaede's face got rather red at Roushi's comment. Holy fuck, how was she going to make it through this little session without strangling him?

"I mean I literally had a breakdown and started painting all of my little visions last week," Kaede said with a straight face. "You want one? It'll be 10,000 yen out of your pocket, but I hear they're both completely fucking terrifying and really good. Before that, I guess I just focused on one vision. It's one I've gotten a lot, and every time I got it, it would show more and more detail. I spent a lot of time before then trying to avoid getting any visions, but I didn't really have a lot of control over them, so it didn't do me much good."

She sighed. "And then I just gave up on trying to prevent them after a while. Sometimes they were averted, because my brain just likes showing me the worst scenario, but other times they weren't. If Okawa and Sora hadn't been there, that last one would have played out exactly as it did in my head."

Roushi just laughed. "Oh, I see, so you were fucking BEFORE. That makes sense." Apparently his dick was too small. Go figure.

---

Kaji sneezed again. This was weird. Maybe he had allergies.

---

Roushi raised his eyebrows. "Oh. Yikes." Interesting case, to say the least. He pulled out a piece of paper partway through her explanation, scrawling notes onto it with a pen that he swore had never run out of ink, despite being used for years. When she finished speaking, he looked up from his notepad. He crossed one leg over the other, tilting his head at her.

"What was that last one, then? What'd they prevent?" He needed more specifics.
