✯ Seventh Session ✯ [Voice]

[Through the weeks Paprika has been noticing more people coming through, signalling another cycle. It seems that most of the arrivals have already come and still no Atsuko. Well, that's probably for the best anyway. She can't say she would be happy to see the woman stuck here. For some reason she's been thinking about it. Probably because of the rain. The cold, dim demeanor reminded her of her creator. Kind of sad actually.

In the morning, she flips open the journal and begins. She has something she wants to address and given the rain, more people will probably be inside reading to see it.]


So, I see we got some new arrivals in the village. I'm sorry that you all got stuck here. ...Well, only half-sorry. If you actually want to be here, that's fine too. [A small smile.]

My name is Paprika and I'm a psychotherapist. For anyone who doesn't have 'people doctors' in their world, psychotherapists help people cope with certain issues they feel they can't resolve on their own. Like mental stress or the like. Specifically, my specialty is dream therapy. Psychotherapists are known for having interpersonal relationships, so it's like getting to know the person inside and out and not just talking to them for an hour a week.

I'll get to the point: if any of you have things you want to talk about, but don't feel like you have anyone who will listen or want to keep a matter private from others, I'm willing to lend an ear. Everything we speak about is confidential between us and I won't force it on you. I already learned to make unhackable filters on this system. Or, if you prefer, we can talk in person.

It's just an offer I'm willing to give to anyone who needs it. We have plenty of medical doctors, but sometimes the deepest wounds come from within the psyche. This goes for current residents too. Luceti can be a stressing environment and no one would blame you for getting stressed to a point where you need help, if you can acknowledge you need it. I'll be here all day to answer in.

[ooc: replies come when I wake up.]

Hey, if you like it then who am I to judge? Not that I would either way.

Now that there's a sea, do you think you might try living back on the small ocean for a short time?

It's hard to say; we don't have a ship right now.

But if the chance comes up for us to build one -- [Or just steal Jack Sparrow's] -- ... living back on the sea would be... [It's true, he misses it more than words can express, but he wonders if he'd miss home all the more, sailing on a sea that will go nowhere.

In the end, he shakes his head]
It'd be nice, but just having a sea here is enough for now.

While I can't say I'm glad the place got a small leak, I am glad about the new addition. A desert is nice and all, but it's just a desert in the end. Oceans are more exciting!

I have to agree with Paprika-chan on that~! And I still gotta check the variety of fish out...

[identity profile] byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com 2011-03-28 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
I wonder if the sea has a mix of fish from every world, or just from one world. It's interesting for a marine biologist or someone who lives off the sealand.

[His breath holds for a second. From every world--

Something that reminds him of his dream, here in Luceti - he hadn't dared to think of it that way, but this comment, coupled with Ginko's gift... maybe it wouldn't be so bad to see.]


If they're from every world, maybe there's no end to them! [Boyish delight over here]

[She can hear that and it makes her chuckle a little.]

I hope there's enough room in that ocean for all of them then! Even if the Malnosso don't treat us great all the time, I hope they at least give some courtesy to the fish.

We can only hope, huh?

I'm glad the place is big enough for my friend, at least. Being in a different ocean's gotta feel strange for her.

A different ocean? ...I'm guessing this is someone not regularly apart of your crew, right?

[identity profile] oda-hates-me.livejournal.com 2011-03-28 06:33 am (UTC)(link)
No, but Keimi-chan is a mermaid~!

[identity profile] byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com 2011-03-28 06:37 am (UTC)(link)
Seriously? Your world really sounds interesting Sanji. A vast sea, mermaids -- it sounds romantic.

[identity profile] oda-hates-me.livejournal.com 2011-03-28 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, yes~! [Sounding excited again... for completely different reasons] An entire world under the sea, 10,000 meters below~! Home to the most exotic beauties known to man~!

[... Attempting... focus...]

Ah, and some... other stuff, too. Like giants, dinosaurs, Sea Kings, Lapahn, to name a few.

[A small giggle.]

How exciting. I wonder if Luceti has something like that under the ocean here now. ...Probably not.

[identity profile] oda-hates-me.livejournal.com 2011-03-30 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
What a sight it would be... but you're right. I doubt the Malnosso would stick in an underwater paradise.

[identity profile] byakkoyagirl.livejournal.com 2011-04-02 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
It's too much work and effort. Well, at least you got an ocean now. Even if it was on accident.

[identity profile] oda-hates-me.livejournal.com 2011-04-02 11:57 am (UTC)(link)
My crew and I will take what we can get.

[glances at her] I guess the ocean's not as exciting for you, huh?
