   Summary

   Shane didn’t need therapy. He already knew what was healthy. Right? Right. He was fine. His relationship with his parents was completely uncomplicated.

   On the other hand, he had a fucking lot to say to Ilya’s family. Who he would never meet. Irina and Grigori, because they were dead, and Alexei, because Ilya had cut him off.

   Closure, then. Perfect. The exercise applied to Shane, too. He didn’t need a therapist, he could just secretly steal Ilya’s.

   Or, Shane Hollander versus Ilya's family. Or, Shane Hollander versus his own anger.
