That's alright. The answers don't need to be anything beyond "I'm trying to figure this out, too". Honestly, I'm glad you're giving this a chance. I can't guarantee anything will change after the first session or anything like that, and realistically, even if this is just a session to help loosen your nerves about doing this, I consider that a successful session. Besides, I'm sure just talking about things will gradually help.
And, of course, if there's anything you don't want to answer, you don't have to. You can just tell me you want a different question or something like that, okay? Your comfort takes precedent.
[ And Mizuki jots down a few more things here. ] That's good to hear! How are things going with them? Are they helping you adjust?
[Thank god for Mizuki, honestly. He's truly out here working to Wolfwood's strengths, which are "I have a hard time talking about myself because I don't really want to ever, also I don't like people", soooo
We're getting somewhere, if by millimeters instead of inches.
So he nods, and dare I say his expression actually manages to look a little fond.]
They're goin'...great. I never really thought I'd be in a place where I'd get t'have 'em both, and be livin' with 'em both.
[Like, he saw Livio die in his own timeline. He doesn't like to think about it, though.]
And they are, yeah. They've been real patient with me.
[ Just don't tell him that out loud, he'll get nervous and shut down- ]
That's fantastic, then! Is there anything specifically you want to see changed, then? Anything that maybe you'd like to take the steps toward in improving? Beyond, of course, the forest. But that's an entirely different fish to fry, I feel.
Well, generally when someone says they want to be kinder, it's because it's affecting something in their life they want to change. Like, for example, if someone consistently argued with their family, or if someone keeps losing their job because of their behavior, or something like that. What are the ends you want to see, Father Wolfwood?
I know I'm...constantly gettin' into it with people. If they're gonna dish it out, I'm gonna give as good as I get. But that ain't always the right call...and it ain't just with other people. I feel like if I weren't so shitty at dealing with shit like that, it'd be easier. Same goes for my boyfriends, too.
[He isn't pointing to a specific instance but, uh. Their shit is MESSY and he knows it.]

[Yes Wolfwood, that's what therapy is for.]
