    How to be kinder to yourself in 5 simple steps;
    Step 1) masturbate
    Step 2) answer the phone by accident while completing step 1
    Step 3) recognize that it was a mistake and it does not define you
    Step 4) stop blaming yourself for the occurrence of this mistake, and the one after that, and the one after that…and the one after that…
    Perhaps this may in fact be defining you and it is possible that you aren't worthy of kindness? You may also have significant feelings towards your former childhood friend.
    Step 5) revisit and make corrections to the aforementioned steps.

    The end of the war leaves Katsuki with zero excuses not to seek out therapy and in his second year at UA he finally does just that. Going to therapy has allowed him to start dealing with the negative feelings he feels towards himself and his actions towards others. To further improve his emotional regulation, he embarks on a journey of self care through various forms; masturbation being one of them. One day during one of his "sessions" he is interrupted by a phone call. It goes down hill after that.

    A story of guilt, self love, and raw indulgence struggling to co-exist tolerably together.
