The Be My Therapist Meme



Your characters have been trapped in a strange but comfortable room, with a big desk and couch, and now have to spend some time either talking about their problems or listening to other people's problems and trying to give good advice. Both is fine, too.

The room itself will compel them to at least try to play those roles, and will only release them after they do what it wants them to do.

The problems can be silly or serious, deep or shallow, it's all up to you.

[The List Of Possible Problems]

1. Small but still sucky problems that are just bothersome- They've gotten bad grades at school, they have a bad hair day, they fought with a friend about something really silly, etc etc.

2. Love, relationships and family problems - They're fighitng with their SO, they think their spouse might be cheating on them, they have Mother/Father Issues, their siblings are their worst enemy, etc etc.

3. Lifechanging problems - They flunked out of school, they find out they have superpowers, they find out they are the only one who can pilot a super robot, etc etc.

4. 'Our world as we know it is in danger' type problems - The Dark Lord is raising and is trying to take over their world, they have zombie problems, the Evil Space Empire is coming for their planet, their experiments with time travel ended up unraveling reality, etc etc.

5. Work related problems - They have to deal with the boss from hell, how are they supposed to defend the Earth with all those budget cuts, etc etc

6. Money problems - They have to deal with budgeting, inheritance problems, etc etc. Or maybe they just can't afford that fancy car...

7. Trauma related problems - Something bad happened to them, be it the deaths of important people or being trapped in a warzone or anything else, and they have to deal with the resulting trauma.

8. Really cracky problems - I hate my superheroine uniform, my brother always chews my slippers when he turns into a werewolf and I wish he'd stop, etc etc.

9. Something else

[How To]

1. Post as your character. (Please write down the name and canon/fandom of the character in the subject line, and also if they're canon, AU, crossover or OC, etc.)

2. Please choose your character's role - Therapist (Counsellor) or Client - and set the first scene. Setting the scenes for both is fine, too. (It is also all right for the characters to take turns being the therapist and the client, if that's what you want to do)

3. Tag, thread and have fun!

Comments

The Master | Doctor Who | Client

[soundsofdrums]

[Oh, does he have problems. The Master has nine hundred years of them. The Time Lord is far from sane, centuries of bitterness and loneliness and the constant drumming in his mind causing him to live in the realm of almost pure insanity.

He does not look very amused to be stuck here, and is loathe to talk about his own issues.]

you want to choose? you being the issues and all lol

[ikkorose]

[Gin is leans forward over his desk, almost snakelike. He interlaces his fingers and tilts his head to the side.]

Y'know, y'feel better about things when you talk about 'em.

Brainiac 3/Lyrl Dox - DC Comics canon - Client

[greenteengenius]

[Lyrl really doesn't need a therapist--or at least no more than his father does--but he has no choice. His father is making him.

Probably as a political ploy of some kind, but nonetheless.

Lyrl sat down and worked out problems in his head. At least talking would not take up all of his concentration. Far from it.]

Baby Doll | Sucker Punch

Ariadne | Inception

[whatisntreal]

[He'd invited Ariadne to his home in hopes of being able to talk dream sharing with her, find out if she's been working any more after the Fischer inception. There was no way he was going to travel with two young children, even if he was growing restless and a little depressed from staying in constantly.

The kids were playing quietly in the living room when he answered the door, inviting Ariadne in with a relieved smile.] Glad to see that you made it in one piece.

Sansa Stark/ Alayne Stone | A Song of Ice and Fire

[songsandstories]

I rolled a 7, because the random number gods like being appropriate?

[noproperlord]

[The Eyrie is starting to empty out for the winter. Most of the household has moved down to the Gates of the Moon to wait out the cold, but Petyr is one of the few who hasn't settled yet. There's still things that he needs to attend to in the higher castle, and he's spent the week prior making trips back and forth between the two to set everything in place.

Just now Petyr is seated in the Crescent Chamber, a piece of parchment in hand. He's studying it with narrowed eyes, as if displeased with the news it brings.]

Rogue | X-Men

[glovedtouch]

Crowley - Good Omens canon - Counselor

[devil_put_aside_for_you]

[Please, come in, he's just watering his plants. Or doing something to them, anyway.]

Edd (Double D) // Ed Edd 'n Eddy // Counsel...ee?

[itsaprototype]

[Shakes a little, then sits down on the couch and begins swaying his legs. It seems like an awfully large room, but in reality, it's actually kind of small. And very nice looking.]


Edd gulps.


[Everything is so peaceful and quiet, just the way he likes it. Usually. Still young, he finds many things to be...untidy.]

gamzee makara • homestuck ( counselor )

[deliracy]

[ only possibly the worst councelor of your life. or the best, if you're needing a bit of humor in your life. nevertheless, the doors are open, and gamzee's sitting on top of the therapist desk, fussing with whatever's on it's surface, curious and fascinated by



everything. ]

[electrically]

[ Mikoto has no idea how she ended up here. She didn't even know until now that she had, well, "problems". Still, all she knows is that she's sitting on one of the chairs, pouring her heart out to this funny-looking shrink. ]

... I- I mean, it's not that I don't like admitting some of the things I like. But some things just has to be kept to yourself, right? And t-that doesn't mean that I like that guy either! Especially for a really stupid person like him who'd go out of his way to save anyone....

[ SO MANY CONFLICTED FEELINGS. But then she looks up at this "counselor". ]

Oi, are you even listening?! Aren't you being paid to do this kind of work?

Chell | Portal | Client

[1498]

[ Good luck getting so much as a word out of this one. She does have a pen and notepad to scribble thing down on, though, and she's at least vaguely willing to do so, no matter how vacant she might seem. ]

Itsuki Koizumi | The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya | OTA

[dontmindmepleasecontinue]

[Counselor]

barnaby brooks jr | tiger & bunny

[ex_bandai157]

[ either way works! either he will be the worst client ever or the worst therapist ever so uh pick your poison |D ]

[virtualunknown]

[Instead of a notepad, MakubeX sits in a chair with a laptop.]

Feel free to begin whenever you're ready.

((OOC: Just randomly went with the counselor role, but we can swap, if that works better. ^^)

Sabriel | Old Kingdom Trilogy | client or counselor

[bindsthedead]

As a client: [Sabriel could understand that she had gone through things most people her age hadn't. Like fighting the Dead, losing her father, and finding out that she was the latest in a line of people expected to dedicate their lives to fighting the Dead and Free Magic. She was also aware that her nightmares had been getting worse ever since her brush with death at the hands of Kerrigor, and there were dark circles clearly visible under her eyes.

Still, she leaned back on the couch, and carefully removed her sword-belt and bell bandolier, setting them aside, and giving the individual at the desk an exhausted smile.]

As a counselor: [Sabriel sits down at the desk, looking like the awkward teenager she is. Just ignore that she's reading a spellbook instead of anything related to therapy.]

Sabriel *v*

[waitforthewheel]

[Zhaan gives her client a small, serene smile before her expression is replaced with concern at the obvious exhaustion.]

My child, what is troubling you?

Jackson Whittemore | Teen Wolf

[deserves]

[This is Jackson, he needs years of therapy.]

Re: Jackson Whittemore | Teen Wolf

[maskedbreathing]

[This man in a gas mask is tapping one gloved hand on the arm of the chair.]

We can sit in silence if you want.

Loki Laufeyson | MCU | Either role is fine!

[you_have_heart]

Hope you don't mind me crashing? RNG -> 4, Client

[peterparker]

[Come home with too many bruises for too many days in a row and your guardian sends you to a councilor in a funny suit with lady-hair: got it. Lesson learned.

Slouching in a seated position on the couch rather than laying down, Peter gives Loki a discomfited, lopsided look before just deciding to be honest with the guy.

He could take it as he would.]

Look, Doc, no offense-- but unless you have a PhD in biology and minored in 'crazy monsters try to take over New York'-ology, you're really not going to understand my special, specific brand of 'problem'.

Rose Lalonde | Homestuck

[thorny]

[come on in, everyone, and help Rose get the field experience necessary to pursue the profession of her choice.]

fhjsd long time no see! 2

[fuckincakewake]

[ This couch feels funny. like nobody's ever broke it in before. Drums her fingers against her stomach, breaking her gaze from the ceiling to look over at the wannabe therapist. ]

Okayyyy. Before we start, we agree this is kinda like a conflict of interests, right? Snd the only reason I'm doing it is because you have a problem with my totally normal booze consumption and I want us to be friends. I totally want that on the record.

Carol Peletier | The Walking Dead | Client

[losteveryone]

[Yep, losing both her abusive husband and her young daughter has definitely taken it's toll on her...]

Stuart Bayldon | Sirens | OTA | Client

[fuckinghateadrenaline]

This is just fucking ridiculous.

[Stuart will be sat in a chair, arms folded defiantly.]

I don't need any therapy. I'm a master of my own emotions, and there's nothing you can do or say to prove me wrong.

lal mirch • katekyo hitman reborn! ( client )

[centipede]

[ emotional problems including curses, dead boyfriend trauma, and crippling regret! it might be difficult to get something easy out of her, but in due time. soon. all she needs is one more person. ]

I don't need this, damn it--

Marquise Spinneret Mindfang | Homestuck | Counselor

[octet]

[ Regardless, she took that fancy couch for herself. ]

2 damn

[executor]

[ He didn't want it anyway; he'd likely just break it in a fit of frustration. So sitting on the carpet and leaning back against the bulky leather counselor chair it is. ]

I do not pity her pity her. I never did. Her pedigree was middling at best and she kept reprehensible company besides. I simply could not. [ Slooowly kneading his temples. ] And because I... only saw her for a few moments before she fled into rabble, of course.

Austria | Hetalia

[edle_gestalt]

As a therapist: expect some Freud

As a client: .... except some Freud

oooh... Freud.

[itachi_san]

A masked man walks into your office. His white armor is splattered with blood. His sword, still unsheathed, is covered in blood as well. He's shaking. He's... sobbing...

"They... they're dead... all of them... dead... I... I killed them..."

The sword clatters on the ground.

Goro Majima | YAKUZA | Client or Counselor

[bewareofdog]

Tohru Adachi // Persona 4 // Either is fine~!

[cabbagehead]

i'm sure this is just going to go well either way

just be prepared for potentially triggery terrible things????

Dr. Pilgrim is in

[heardramonasing]

[Scott spins around several times in his office swivel chair. He was a big time shrink, he could do whatever he wanted, like spin around in a swivel chair as much as he wanted to before he'd puke.

However, now was not the time for such childish antics. His next patient would be arriving shortly, so now was the time to put on his "big boy" pants and get to work.

Pressing a button on the intercom on his desk, Scott chimed in on his secretary.]

"Miss Flowers, when Mister Tohru arrives, send him straight in, please?"

russia | 1942 - 1943 ( hetalia )

[hoarfrosted]

[therapist]

Doctor Ichiro Irabu | Kuuchuu Buranko | Psychiatrist

[doctorupsidedown]

[ Yeah this office is made up of ridiculous colors, there are toys scattered on the floor, and your new Psychiatrist has a bear eared headband, a bright jumpsuit under his labcoat... and floral patterned hair?

You can't be in the right place can you? I mean this looks crazy on so many levels here. ]
