Therapy Session Take #1

[perfecttune]

WHO: Mari and you (OTA, characters are free to interact with others as well)
WHAT: Mari is hosting a therapy session! Come if you would like, or if you want to argue against it feel free to show up as well! This is more informal than it seems although she did invite some guest speakers.
WHERE: One of the large buildings that was most likely a common area for everyone, or just a super large bedroom.
WHEN: After First Crossing
WARNINGS Talk about death and violence, specific CWs will be in the text.

A message goes out on the server from Mari: Sorry for the delay everyone! I thought it best to wait a bit till after the meeting Kel thoughtfully put together for all of us! If you would like to come for the Therapy Session, please come to building X. If you would like to bring anyone or anything along please do! Special guest speakers/appearances include Makoto Naegi, Daniil Dankovsky, and Soo Won.

Mari put her tablet down and went back to straightening the chairs she was able to gather in a circle. Surely this would be welcoming? This way they could all see each other and seek comfort if needed... but just in case, she had set up private areas using curtains as a makeshift divider in case others felt the need for a one on one talk...

It still felt strange to her to not have refreshments so she had cups filled with water just in case, surely even if they didn't need to drink it still helped to make the session feel welcoming?

As people filtered in she would call out a greeting. "Welcome and thank you for coming! If you feel comfortable taking a seat please do so! There are also refreshments over there."

Whatever comes after death. Or after after death, in your case. Oblivion, maybe, or reincarnation. Ferryman-san mentioned said it was nice to see me again when we met, so I imagine if things are as they seem either we've made this journey multiple times or Ferryman-san is involved in births as well.

[toilet_bound]

They said that to me too. As if… we had met before or something.

[He pauses, weighing his next words. He hadn’t really talked about the fact before but…]

They said Yashiro is one instance of herself. The same can probably be said of us. The question is… how many other instances of ourselves have ended up here, and to what end?

[It really was a confusing concept, if he sat down to think about it too much.]

[blindluck]

They said that about Naegi-sama and myself as well, when we asked about the inconsistencies in our memories. [So that does match up.] If you think about all the potential times you might have died over the course of your life before the one you actually remember... Well, it could be a lot, actually! Probably even more than you can come up with!

[There are so many ways to die! Yay!]

[toilet_bound]

I think I would have only had the two… or three… [He mutters, uncharacteristically quiet. There was a time before his first death… so long ago… but it’s hazy in his mind.] Oh well! People are fragile, after all~

[blindluck]

They are. And maybe other versions of you could have died in ways you'd never be able to predict. A lightning strike, or a meteorite! [Nagito seems to consider these very legitimate things to take into account.]
