Work Text:
Dimitri walks into his therapist’s office. He waves to the therapist, then takes a seat. The two discuss how things have been since their last meeting. They move on to practicing techniques such as positive affirmations, deep breathing, and mental exercises. Dimitri feels better by the time he leaves. He just has to remind himself to keep practicing.
Annette walks into her therapist’s office. She greets her therapist, sits down on the couch, and takes the Sommie plush that’s been laid out for her. Doctor Byleth says plushies help with the therapy sessions. Does Annette think she needs it? No. But she can’t help but see that cute little face and want to cuddle it. Why couldn’t her dad think of her like that?
Felix walks into his therapist’s office. It took a while, but he’s now comfortable enough to say hello to his therapist. He doesn’t discuss much else. Doctor Byleth has her work cut out for her.
Ashe walks into his therapist’s office. He smiles at Doctor Byleth, then takes the seat across from her. Her couch is nice and soft, but still firm enough that he doesn’t sink. He wonders how much money it cost. The two begin to talk about Ashe’s DND character, who may or may not be a self insert thief turned paladin.
Mercedes walks into her therapist’s office. She brings cookies as a present. Doctor Byleth takes one as soon as she sets the basket on the table. Snickerdoodles, she thinks. She knows me well. Am I sure she’s not the therapist here?
Sylvain does not walk into his therapist’s office. He opens the door, strides in, and throws himself onto the couch. He then adjusts himself so he’s lying in a ‘draw me like one of your french girls’ pose. “You are never gonna believe what happened to me this week.”
Doctor Byleth drags a hand down her face.
