[A combination of his training and general personality gives him almost a saint's patience. Sorey waits, then nods with a small smile.]

That's understandable. It does involve us having a conversation each session, but my job is to help you in those conversations. It won't be a straight path forward, though. You'll take some steps back or go off on a different road for a bit, but that's okay and normal.

If you'd like Sakuya with you each session, that's also perfectly fine by me and my office!

I see. Such is the way of any journey. [Be it literal or figurative. Looking at it in that way made it a little less intimidating. Only a little. There was a difference in seeking new frontiers and the mind palace.

Sakuya being brought up caused the Eevee to hop back up onto the table next to Takame who gave a sort of sympathetic expression.]

Mm. Perhaps I will, if he would like to come. [He gave the Eevee some pet pets.] It won't be very pleasant to hear though, my little friend.

[Sorey's smiling a little at that.]

Pleasant or not, I get the feeling that little Sakuya wants to be there for every step of your journey. Alice was the same way, honestly.

[She chirps and cuddles up to the brunet's cheek. He grins as he carefully pets her little body. His attention returns to Takame, though.]

Do you have a particular day and time you want to have therapy sessions with me?

[hoshikiri]

[As if in response, Sakuya nodded while nuzzling against Takame's scaly hand. His expression softened at the Eevee, as if trying to will a smile that never came.

Unmistakably in Japanese, he thanked his little friend before his attention returned to Sorey.]

Hmm... My nights are often busy with work, and my afternoons often just as much with another job. I am up early every day, so I believe the mornings during the week would be best.
