	Addicts Anonymous. marinanova_npc 2017-05-08 10:03 am UTC (link)
	Alcohol, narcotics, sex or shopping? All of the above? Something else entirely? Whatever you're addicted to, this is the safe space you need to admit to yourself you have a problem. Sobriety badges available on request. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	[He's just going to ... hover ... outside the door. There's no reason for him to go in. Maybe a reason. A small one. It's not a big deal.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2017-05-09 10:41 pm UTC (link)
	[So the alcohol hasn't been a problem. At least... not yet. No sir. Not a problem. It will be in the future... unless Mal does something to stop it. But no. He doesn't have an alcohol issue. Oh look. There's someone to talk to.] Nico. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2017-05-10 04:10 am UTC (link)
	Mal. [He fidgets some, twisting his ring over and over.] So... you're here too, huh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2017-05-11 12:02 am UTC (link)
	[Mal shrugs.] Wouldn't surprise anyone here I drink. A lot. And if we really do end up here for 20 years... at least for some of that time, I'm slotted to be a raging alcoholic. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2017-05-11 03:40 pm UTC (link)
	I know. You got me drunk after that whole pearl thing. [And if the 20 year jump held true, he would credit Mal for his frequency at the bar. And Spike for smoking. Even his family's unending support couldn't banish all the demons.] Do you want to change that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2017-05-15 01:56 am UTC (link)
	Well it seemed the right thing to do. [Okay. So he's an alcoholic. He folds his arms over his chest.] Spending my nights facedown in a park ain't something I'm too keen on experiencing a second time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2017-05-17 04:47 am UTC (link)
	It was fine. Should experience everything at least once, right? [Or ... more than. Spike handed him a bottle of whiskey after Yuuri. But after a night spent bent over a toilet, he vowed never again.] I'm not too keen on you doing that either. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cptn_tightpants 2017-05-18 12:13 am UTC (link)
	[Mal nods then turns a quizzical eye on Nico.] What are you here for though? My one time getting you drunk didn't ruin you for good did it? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	redclayheroics 2017-05-11 09:44 am UTC (link)
	[ Maybe he has more problems than he thought he did. Considering his concerns about sobriety from time to time, this is probably a good group to go to though. Seeing Nico hovering about comes as a surprise, one that makes him pause by the door. ] Nico? You alright? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2017-05-11 05:11 pm UTC (link)
	Hey, Aidan. [He shrugs, unsure if he should even be here.] Um, I think so. I don't know. [He wouldn't say he's addicted to anything, really - though he's found himself nursing a cigarette out his apartment window (he doesn't want Hazel to find out by smelling it when she visits) almost daily. It doesn't seem like a big deal. Maybe it isn't. Maybe it is.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2017-05-13 08:42 pm UTC (link)
	[ Who even knows what counts as addiction - habits are a thing too, right? ] You, uhm... you goin' in? [ Nodding towards the room. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2017-05-16 11:23 pm UTC (link)
	Um, y-yeah. I think so. You? [He hopes so, if only to have a friend there with him.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2017-05-17 07:30 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, I was plannin' on it. Not like I'm worried or nothin', but couldn't hurt to talk some stuff through. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	nico_di_angelo 2017-05-18 05:45 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. You're right. Let's go talk about stuff. [Said with a severe lack of enthusiasm. But he scoots through the door and locates a place to sit.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	redclayheroics 2017-05-19 07:53 am UTC (link)
	[ It does feel better to have a buddy with this, even if Nico is less than enthusiastic. ] So, uhm... why're you here? (Reply to this) (Parent)

[ Reid used to go to meetings like this with some regularity back home. Narcotics anonymous, he still keeps his one year sobriety coin on hand even though it's been far more than a year by now. No relapses, hardly any moments where he wanted to, clean and sober despite it all. Still, he can't help but fidget, turning the coin between his fingers. There's a lot on his mind and hardly any of it has to do with the group therapy sessions. ]

	[With a refill of his own coffee and an extra to match, he holds it out to Reid. It's not that far back that they got on even footing at one of these damn sessions. Time flies.] Hey. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2017-05-14 06:11 pm UTC (link)
	[ It is pretty amazing, looking back on it. They've come so far. ] Thanks. [ He takes the coffee with a grateful smile. ] Guess they're still doing this, huh. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	evilspawn 2017-05-15 02:13 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, only we're not here by force now are we. [He sits, leaning back in his chair in a state of defensive aloofness.] Things okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2017-05-16 08:24 am UTC (link)
	Yeah... things are, uhm. Good, I guess? [ It's weird to say. ] Some people reached out to me about Kitty disappearing, which was uh. Surprising? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	evilspawn 2017-05-17 02:58 am UTC (link)
	In the "I know you keep tabs on your crazy ex" way or the way where they actually think that you're gonna be super hung up on it? Looks like she got shelved at an interesting time, anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2017-05-19 07:03 am UTC (link)
	The latter. [ He would've preferred the former. ] And you're right. I don't like to think that anything here is intentional, but the timing is... something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	evilspawn 2017-05-21 05:57 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. [He has to agree. Code and crap isn't his thing, so he's not even gonna try diving into a discussion about it.] So how do you feel about her finally getting a sleeper shift? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Does it count if you're only here because you have massive potential to screw up and get addicted in a fake future? Or that you grew up with substance abusing parents in the cuckoo nest and are probably heading that way sometime soon... Or both, with a lot of other issues simmering for too long on the stovetop. He doesn't want to be here. Yet here he is, picking at the rim of his coffee cup and staring down at it rather than making eye contact with anyone else in the room.]
