It's Okay To Feel Sad
Who: Anyone!
What: Introduction to the new building, and some ~prompts~ in the comments (TBA)
When: After the mini event.
Where: Therapy building
Warnings: the usual Mizuki warnings apply.
[ Here's your all-express tour of the therapy building! In more detail because there's a lot going on. Welcome! Buckle up! Or don't!
The lobby consists of a lot of very comfy chairs, cots, and stuffed animals. There's a table in the middle with handheld gaming devices. According to the sign Mizuki placed at the table, these are his and he will take them all away if even one gets broken. Be gentle!
There are six doors throughout the lobby that lead to different rooms.
No, it's not a room where you get your physical. Rather, it's a room entirely covered with rock climbing walls, and the floor is entirely made from trampolines. There's no safety equipment, though, so be careful! It's great for getting out physical energy, though, and Mizuki insists that exercise is a great form of therapy. He potentially just asked for it so he could jump on the trampoline...
Surely not wanting to feel anything at all like your floating through the infinite vast of nothingness and becoming one with the universe is exactly what you wanted, right? Being alone with your damning thoughts and nothing else as there's absolutely no light and the body temperature water that leaves you floating feels somehow like nothing and also like... you?
...
There's four tanks in the room. Have fun!
An entirely white room from floor to ceiling with a plethora of different colored paints in buckets in the middle of the room. There are paintbrushes as well, but it's highly encouraged to just throw the buckets around or start slapping your paint-covered hands on the walls. Make a paint angel! Go nuts!!! Just don't eat the paint. Or do, I guess?? I'm not your mom.
Upon leaving the room, it resets to the state it was in when you walked in initially.
This room is... exactly what you expect, actually. There's a bunch of books in here. Most are self-help, but there's some artsy books like origami folding and coloring books, along with colored pencils. There's a sign that states "you can bring the books out to the lobby to read, just remember to put them back when you're done."
All ye who enter this room will be CURSED to be MAD for all eternity!!!!! …Just kidding. Entering the room reveals a very homey looking room with plates and vases and tables and chairs and counters. It could be a small, one room house in here alone. All the furniture does look pretty cheap, though. There's a sledgehammer on the wall that some force seems to not allow you take it out of the room, but there's a sign above it that says "Get your anger out! Go nuts!"
Upon leaving the room, it resets to the state it was in when you walked in initially.
This room is locked. Mizuki and the Shopkeeper both have a key. On the outside, there is a form on a clipboard you can fill out. You can write your name down, a brief blurb about what you want to talk about, who you wish to talk to, etc. etc. and slip the paper under the door.
Inside the room, it's set up to be very earthy. Greens and blues to invoke both calm and creativity... aaaand maybe also remind one of the sea or forest. There's a lot of potted plants (no flowers, oddly-) and a comfortable couch and separate chair. There's a desk in the corner. ]

the lobby

No! No, Elsword is not a soup. I don't have any romantic feelings for him, and not for anyone else. Please, try to keep up with me here.
no subject
I thought I was… So, okay, you have the same "scientific curiosity" for Elsword that you'd have for anyone else??
no subject
[those are people Mizuki wouldn't know... but he's certain of his "purely scientific interest", so if Mizuki did know them then he'd totally agree with Add's analysis. yeah.]
no subject
Oh? Are those… people in your adventuring group back in your world? [ Part of that!!! Support group!!! He's going to ask questions, of course he is. ] Who are they to you, then?
no subject
They are reliable allies and invaluable specimens! No disrespect meant, of course, I wouldn't dream of insulting Her Highness... mm, Raven is a little less interesting. [i'd put "sorry raven" but he'd probably take that as a good thing]
Eve is the Queen of Nasods... you could say she's the whole reason I pursued the El Search Party. Nasods—that is, sentient machines fueled by El—are exceedingly rare in modern-day Elrios. Not only that, but she's truly a prime example of her kind... a perfect, beautiful machine capable of fully realized emotion, bearer of all lost Nasod codes, a truly noble and fearless queen... ahh, even marred with that corrupted code she still commands it so elegantly! And the holograms she creates with it, it's like nothing I've ever seen before! It defies all logic, but it's still formed purely through machine code and electron projectors, a code so powerful it can even hack and disrupt my own holoscreens...
If only she'd look at me more... I'm nothing but a peasant in her eyes, kukuku...
[he sighs again, dreamily, staring off into space........
somehow he still doesn't think this is a "romantic" feeling]
no subject
Mizuki fidgets, brushing some of hair from his face and getting just a little bit flustered by this. He doesn't understand. This doesn't make sense. He knows this isn't supposed to be easy by any means, but… the more Add is contradictory to the things he says is giving Mizuki One Whole Anxiety.
He feels stupid. He hates feeling stupid. ]
I think… maybe I'm not doing such a good job here… A-all that just… is that not… love?
no subject
[it's okay, Mizuki. you'll feel better once you figure out Add has no fucking clue what feelings are and has been gaslighting himself into thinking he's correct. love is fake and his robogirl pining is just normal scientist things.]
Kukukuku... I think that's enough for one day. [otherwise Mizuki might get under his skin again, ugh. He stands up, Dynamos floating close to his shoulders in an even pattern.] This "therapy" of yours... it's certainly an interesting tactic. Well? Were you able to peer into my mind?
no subject
But that's how I love.
He doesn't say this. Both because this isn't about Mizuki, and because Add is already standing up from the couch. He simply nods for now. ]
It's certainly a start, but I think we might need a couple more sessions to work some stuff out later... probably. [ Mizuki also needs to read up on some stuff. Don't be offended if he's reading a book titled "how to do therapy for sociopaths" later- ] Thank you, Add.
no subject
You're quite welcome. I'll see if I can fit something into my busy schedule. [in his mind he's like "i am never doing this again so my winning streak can never be broken" but we all know how that's gonna go for him.]
