Group Therapy Follow-Up
Remember the upcoming group therapy event?

Well, the randomizations are in, and boy, are they random! (We hope!) We would like to ask for a volunteer from each group to reply saying they'll make the post. Please step up. Don't be shy! We just want to make sure each group gets off the ground. Feel free to use this post for plotting.

— Xander Harris notapirate
— Komui Lee komurin
— Shadow shadow_step
— Hei bottomless_pit

We also have a few more details to add.

• The location for the meetings will be up to the person posting. (The player, not the character. The characters are just being given their marching orders!) If you want to do it at the beach, then do it at the beach. Feel free to default to a room in the educational center. You can assume chairs have been moved into a circle if you want. There can be coffee, donuts, etc.

• The robots/sentinels will be around to make sure people stay the allotted amount of time.

• The message will make it clear you can leave sooner if you're talking.

• Not all groups will have themes (see also randomized groups). The groups that do have themes will not have explicitly stated themes. The message won't say it's "relationship" therapy. However, you can assume the materials the wardens (you creative people you) have provided do center around that theme, so it won't be hard to guess once you're there.

• Be creative! Have fun. We don't want these comments to limit/restrict you. They are just some supportive guidelines. Just keep in mind the wardens want you rehabilitated and that the robots are following orders to get and keep you there.

Questions.

Okay now that I'm back from my outing I can sit and DO THIS!!

What do you guys want to do? I only know one character's canon on this list okay, so I'm not really sure what kind of "issues" the group has! Or what would be most fun if they were thrown into Group Therapy for A or B!

Where should their meeting be located? If it were up to Sougo it would be a place with booze, but nothing would probably be accomplished either, haha. Do we even WANT things to be accomplished? Haha, all the questions to answer!

I'm not necessarily saying I'll take the lead (Sougo would be a horrible leader), but I can if no one else wants to!

I know everyone's canon but Sougo's! Weird. You don't really have to have a character take the lead or come up with a theme. Not that you can't! But if you don't find one that's totally okay. Someone just needs to put the post up for the tagging to commence.

I don't know that there is anything specific that's going to bind this group. Sougo, Artemis, and Laura are more physical. Garcia is a hacker. Puck is a mischief maker (unless he arrives in his other form.) Yvaine is a star. Literally. A star from space. Not famous. Raven is kind of physical too. Less from her current canon point than she will be though. If that helps at all.

It won't be up to any of them ICly, but we could go somewhere with alcohol if you want. I have the relationships group going to Lyrical in a private room. /is unhelpful. Um...I'm really good with anything! Maybe...pet cafe? Where the pets are part of the therapy? idk

	sadistfaction 2012-12-02 11:36 pm UTC (link)
	Okay cool. That wasn't clear so I wasn't sure! That's why I put things out there, hee!! Yeah Raven is the only one I know because xfc is awesome. But hm! I think I like the pet cafe now that I'm thinking more about everything. Maybe instead of ice breakers they could play truth or dare. HAHA there are so many things we can do and I love everything hehehe!! (Reply to this) (Parent)

Yvaine doesn't have that many issues. I think she's traumatized about being chained and treated like an object, being almost murdered gruesomely, and being captured by pirates, but that was all in the last two days before coming here.

A wish she's had for a while is to have adventures of her own instead of watching other people have them.

She'd probably like a pet cafe, even though the concept of putting her in therapy when she used to sort of give it would be weird. The pets would be a lovely distraction.

	she's traumatized about being chained and treated like an object LMAO well it's a good thing Sougo won't be a leader because that is exactly his idea of a good time. He'll fake gruesome stuff but he doesn't go that far. THAT BEING SAID I think I will go with the Pet Cafe, and I'll probably be putting up the mingle tonight or tomorrow, so look out for it!

	Since we're still sans volunteer, I'd be happy to make the post if nobody else wants to? I certainly don't mind doing so - I'll just have to think on format, content and whatnot. So most certainly open to discussion on that sort of thing here! ♥ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Birds and cellular peptide cakes, mostly... I MEAN UH. This sounds cool with me. XD Not sure about location, but if nobody has preferences, I can pick a nice, big communal space at random ~~that is not occupied by another group already~~. (Reply to this) (Parent)

That sounds good to me. Personally I'm good with everything, but just because the previous speaker mentioned it - why not a dreams themed group (if people do want a specific theme, that is)? What are your hopes and ideals? Want to talk about those pesky nightmares of your past haunting you? Twelve steps program in how to beat those silly dreams about escaping from the prison!

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thirdcriterion 2012-12-04 01:47 am UTC (link)
	Yes, this is totally a neat idea! (And yay, Data can talk about his dream program XD) But yeah, as a prompt, this gives a lot of room to keep conversation (for anyone who cooperates with the idea anyway) pretty open and varied. And before I just go and shove us somewhere, if there are any preferences on a location, I am of course open to input on that as well. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I can write up a post for here but I'd love your own ideas of what you'd like to do. Otherwise, Peggy may throw out everything the wardens have and do a "support group for victims of inter-dimensional trafficking and abuse at the hands of the wardens." Or some such. So, yeah. Ideas. I'd love some. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pure_confidence 2012-12-02 06:21 pm UTC (link)
	I was actually looking at the arts center as a place to have their meeting actually! It was that or the museum. Maybe they could do finger painting, or something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I have a post sketched out for it here. (Don't tag it there!) Let me know if you have additions, suggestions, objections. I'll post it Monday, but that doesn't have to mean it's in the morning.

	I can post this one with Itachi as long as I have an idea what people want. I'm thinking of the beach or training hall? Also ice breakers! Anyone have ideas for them? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	greenerarrow 2012-12-02 10:59 pm UTC (link)
	Both places sound great. If we do training hall maybe some of the ice breakers are more physical? Like...those soft bats for hitting people in therapy? Or if it's on the beach then something like when you catch the frisbee your supposed to say something about yourself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Plotting happens here! I've already volunteered to post the mini-mingle, but does anyone have any preferences about which day? Location? Activities? I was thinking about going with the classic chair-of-circles-and-terrible-coffee but beyond that there are no plans! Talk to me, lovelies! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2012-12-02 07:42 pm UTC (link)
	I think the classic feels very appropriate for this one. No preferences. If you want something even more stark than the educational center, maybe some room in the hospital? Kind of on theme. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	blue_eyed 2012-12-02 10:26 pm UTC (link)
	i'm a little more partial to the educational center setting; a room in the hospital seems kind of?? idk, intimidating? not really a place anyone would be cool with, despite kind of working with the theme. but otherwise i have no real preferences. c: (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I'll post this first thing in the morning (which for most Americans will be late Monday night), but since it will be a small group unless more people join in, is there anything special you would like to see? I've already got a decent number of ice-breakers questions and whatnot specially geared to the theme of the group, but any suggestions are welcome. o/ (Reply to this)
