[Bailey has propped their device up on the other side of the room - which isn't saying much, considering how small the cabins are. Unlike a few of the people who have been on the network recently, they're fully clothed!

So, yeah, not doing the challenge.]


I know everyone is getting excited for the, ah, challenge but...

[They trail off for a moment, looking uncertain.]

My name is Bailey Morello - I'm new here, but, ah, some of my expertise might be appreciated, for as much as you can call it that...

Basically, I'm a therapist - I'm not officially licensed to work with the, ah, living? But I've been educated and trained and do have some experience with counseling, especially crisis and grief counseling, so...

[They rub their arm, awkward.]

Being here on its own seems stressful enough, so if anyone needs to talk with anyone, no judgement and with full confidentiality... I'm pretty good at listening. It was kind of my job, before, you know, I ended up here... S-so! That's all I wanted to say. Don't feel like you need to talk to me, but... Maybe consider it, if you're having a hard time?

That's kind of you to offer. But may I make a suggestion?

You might want to have a drop box where people can request appointment times. Everything we say here is public, and most people don't want others to know they're in therapy.

It's still a very good idea. Thank you for thinking of us.

What's a therapist, Bailey-san? [Romeo still looks exhausted and this is someone he doesn't know yet. He must have missed new people arriving when he was in the suitcase.]

And if you don't got a license to work with alive people do you got one to work with dead people?

[personal profile] myblueskies 2020-04-13 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
So is it a bit like a doctor? You help dead people who are hurt and poorly?

[A muffled-sounding, indistinct voice messages Bailey. It's as if they're actively trying to sound anonymous.]

Where would your, uh...sessions...be?

Ok, sounds good. I'll get back to you on times, this is...Clark. Call me Clark. Thanks.

[A little later, Bailey will get a note addressed to them slipped under the cabin that says: "I can do early mornings 7-9am or late at night 8-11pm. Put this note under the coffee machine in the kitchen and let me know which works best for you. -Clark. I'm actually Arataka Reigen (blond adult in orange) but don't tell anyone that I know your policy says you can't"]

I’ve died at least twice that I know of. Do I count even if I am currently “of the living?”

Grief Counseling, huh?

[Sure Yugi did get some closure on the whole Atem no longer being around thing, but at the same time he had still been a major part of his life and was hard to be fully over it.]

Is it just talking?

Okay...

[He is thinking about this a little bit. It might be useful but for all he knew it might not. Then he considered if he should maybe bring it up to a certain someone who probably for all intents and purposes should really see someone like this, but he knew odds are probably wouldn't consider it.

Yugi soon realised he might have been quiet for a little too long.]


Sorry... I might consider getting an appointment, but I would want to maybe bring someone to. but only if they wanted to. otherwise it would just be me...

Would that be okay?

[ Alice is rather glad to hear something that isn't total nonsense over these things. Although she's not too sure if this subject matter is a whole lot better, considering her past experiences with this stuff. It's enough to actually make her use these ICPs. ]

How do people know if they can trust you?

[ Sorry to be the party pooper. ]

[personal profile] irrationally 2020-04-13 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Some people are too trusting by nature though.

[ And Alice knows it's really none of her business. But she has let people get abused by someone claiming to be something similar for long enough, so the idea just makes her feel sick to her stomach. Despite not knowing much about Bailey at all. ]

If I end up hearing any strange rumors, we're going to need to have some words.

I have someone who needs your earliest appointment.

[He gives the young man a humorous grin. There's truth in his remark but maybe not quite as urgent as that sounded.]

Official licensing can take a holiday in our circumstance.

Something like that. Would you be willing and available to come to my office? I have coffee.

[A grinning face pops up, he gives a little wave]

Hey! Not looking for a shrink right now, got all my little thought hamsters in a row so I'm good! Just wanted to say that's an awesome service you're offering there!

[Gives the guy a thumbs up because Encouraging Duo is very Encouraging.]

Keep it up, buddy!

Just figured I'd give some encouragement where encouragement is deserved!

Counselling? That is an excellent service to provide.

I do not think that I have any outstanding issues that need to be addressed, but it is good to have someone to talk about whatever is pressing. Even though we are roomates, I will be respectful of your office hours, once you post them, if I do need to speak about things.
