[Day 237] FAMILY ISSUES GROUP THERAPY MINGLE
[Anyone brought to this group will find that there are tables set up around the perimeter of the room, one with snacks and drinks, some even with art supplies on them, while the chairs are all pushed into a circle in the middle. There is a projector set up to one side and it flashes images every so often onto the wall. Images of children, adults, the elderly with the young--some of them more formal, posed, others candid as the brief moments of life they were. Some of these images might even be familiar to certain inmates. It shouldn't be hard for them to pick out their own families after all.

In the center of the circle of chairs is a table with a large bowl of treats, wrapped candies of various sorts. Hard candies, caramels, chocolates, taffy. Beside the bowl is a set of cards with instructions written on the back of them.

"Select a card and read the question aloud to the group. Whoever answers the question gets to choose a reward from the bowl and then select the next card. Continue until all of the cards have been viewed or the bowl is empty. More than one person can answer--the first to respond gets to select the next card. If no one volunteers, the card picker gets to select a person."

The cards themselves have a variety of questions and tasks, but they all have a very similar theme.]

1. What does "family" mean to you?
2. Draw a picture of your family and describe it to the group.
3. What is your ideal family unit?
4. Do you have any siblings? If so, what are they like? If not, what would you do if you found out you had one you had never met before?
5. Have you ever done something to hurt or upset a member of your family on purpose?
6. What is the strongest memory you have of your mother and/or father?
7. Imitate one of your parents when reprimanding you.
8. Have you ever felt like an outsider in your family?
9. What is something you have done to a member of your family or they had done to you that took a long time to move beyond (if ever)?
10. Who are you closest to in your family?
11. How many close family members have you lost?

{OOC: Mingle! These questions are not the only ones. Feel free to come up with more. Also the candy in the bowl is spiked just like the pastries and coffee, so the more characters eat...you get the picture.}

	[Caliborn slaps down his markers and holds up...] [... he seems very proud of it.] Feast your eyes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He's seen a lot of bad pictures in his lifetime (having spent several years living with Yuuki. This takes the cake.] Explain it now. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[The pride quickly turns into mild annoyance.] It's obviously a picture of me and my so-called "sister." I mean. It's not fully accurate. But it's basically fucking impossible to draw us both at once without being misleading. Also. We aren't chained up anymore. As you can clearly see in my drawing, if you stop being a shit head about it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The only resemblance I see is the colors. [But fine, whatever. If you say it's a picture of you and your sister--who is he to argue.] You have a complicated relationship with your sister, I'm assuming. [He purposely leaves out words of affection because he knows it's possible to love someone but not like them.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Caliborn snorts and sets his drawing down.] No. The only complication is that she stubbornly refuses to fuck off and die and leave me in peace. Until that day comes. And it will. Tormenting her is fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So you'll continue to torture her until she dies? Will that make your life better once that happens? How? What will you do? Why do you want her dead? [Yes, 20 questions. Keeping the attention off Yuuki and her messed up incestual family.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Incest is the least of what he wants to pick at there, but hey. Aliens.]

God. You're all so fucking stupid. I mean. Your collective inability to draw simple conclusions is convenient for keeping secrets. But I can practically spell it out for you. And still. You don't get it?

When she's dead, I get full fucking control of my body. So yeah. It makes my life a whole lot better.

[Just ignores your insults since he doesn't care what you think.]

Are you certain? I would think if two beings truly shared a body--and not just one hosting the other--than they both would die. It isn't like Ichiru and I where he just lives on inside of me, speaking from time to time when he thinks I'm being an idiot--you share a body.

[Did he just say that? Hopefully no one caught that...stupid refreshments.]

[Caliborn has never heard of that happening with humans, which he mistakenly assumes is what Zero is. Still, he files that away and for now latches onto what he thinks is more important: himself.]

It's not going to work. Tricking me into not wanting her dead, I mean.

One of us dies. The other lives. Whatever weird fucking pit you and your "brother" crawled out of doesn't apply to cherubs.

It can only be me who wins. She doesn't stand a chance.

	[Actually it's because he's a hunter--a human. He's unique in even his own race. The ability to devour and obtain his brother's abilities was the reason he was turned into a vampire.] I've wanted a lot of people dead. You can feel or think whatever you want, I'm just curious on how you can kill someone you have no control over and without damaging the body. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He rolls his eyes and wriggles around in his chair until he's laying in it sideways. Caliborn feels so relaxed right now, and he's every bit as much eager to prove how little he cares.] Now that I won't dignify with an answer. Not because I don't know. But it's too complicated and I don't feel like talking about our fucking life story. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	notamasochist 2013-09-18 11:26 pm UTC (link)
	Why not? You had no issues wanting to discuss how other people's family have died. Why not how you plan on killing yours? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-09-18 11:36 pm UTC (link)
	[Caliborn very casually brings his arm up and flips Zero his middle finger.] Compared to slaughtered bloody corpses and trama? It's fucking boring. No mess. No screaming. No lime blood splashed across walls and ruining stupid outfits. One day she'll just be gone. A mundane end to a tedious shrew. (Reply to this) (Parent)
