✯ First Session ✯ [Voice]

[As soon as the feed clicks on a woman can be seen, eating a bag of popcorn. She's been flipping around her journal for a while and feels her curiosity at it's peek. That and it's raining. Not a fun day at all.]

Hello everyone, I hope you're staying indoors and keeping warm. 'When it rains, it pours!' as the old saying goes. Don't want anyone catching a flu out there.

Hey, I'm curious: what kind of places does everyone come from? An island, a desolate desert, the ocean, the city- maybe you don't even have a place to call home. This 'different worlds' thing is really exciting! Like a merge of different cultures coming all together...against our wills. [It doesn't sound as good now that she thinks about it.]

...Oh, I hope I'm not prying though. Some people think I do that a lot, so don't be offended. I'm not going to store this information away for nefarious means. It's just a way to spend time waiting for the sun to come up. Exchanging stories that we might never hear in our 'world' sounds fun, don't you think?

[She's about to click off the feed, but then remembers something important.]

Wait! Almost forgot: thanks to everyone who helped me get settled into this place a couple weeks back. You know who you are.

I wouldn't be much of a dream therapist if I didn't remember my sessions. I would get two jobs at most before word spread around.

...Dream therapist.

That's...not something I'm familiar with.

Not surprised. In my world, around the year 2006, a psychotherapy machine was created, which lets people connect their subconscious together. I work as one of the psychotherapists on the research team, who tested out the machine on some volunteers. It's basically therapy, only it happens while someone is dreaming.

Huh.

Seems like it would be a little disorienting.

When you wake up it is. Everyone gets used to it after the first couple times. It's a minor downside to what's considered a revolutionary new way to treat patients.

...Doesn't it freak out the patients?

I wouldn't know. The device was still in the testing phase when I got thrown into this place. I only used it on maybe a few people, most of them mentally unstable.

...Huh.
