[ sitting at her desk, legs crossed & a hand resting lazily on a pile of papers (charts) on her desk, a finger tapping at it rather impatiently. ]

[ silence. ponders. ]

... I am not sure. He started yelling about their family trip when I asked where they were going this time. I wonder if he does not like Disneyland...

[needleinreserve.livejournal.com]

Oh, I don't know if that boy likes anything but his laptop.

[adamtheshrink.livejournal.com]

Perhaps. He still has an affinity for Damon, it seems. His presence continues to put him in a good mood... but this is nothing new.

[needleinreserve.livejournal.com]

Who can say? Damon never stays around long enough to see if they can tolerate each other on regular basis.

[adamtheshrink.livejournal.com]

Ah... that's true. He does speak highly of him, nonetheless.

[needleinreserve.livejournal.com]

And the other three?

[adamtheshrink.livejournal.com]

Nothing other than the usual.

[needleinreserve.livejournal.com]

Aw, is that disappointment I hear?

[adamtheshrink.livejournal.com]

[ blinks a few times, thinking. ]

Ah... no, I don't think so. I'd still rather them feel free to talk to me than avoid me.

[ chuckles. picks up the chart that she was looking at, shifting around in her chair to hit his head with it gently. ]

That's a good attitude. Anyway, here. Their updated physicals.

[adamtheshrink.livejournal.com]

[ closes his eyes within the contact, peering up at the chart before taking it. looks it over, head tilted to the side. when he starts again it is obvious on who he is speaking of: ]

... ah. He has grown again. I wonder if he will reach Albert's height by the time he's eighteen.

[needleinreserve.livejournal.com]

We'll see by next summer.

[adamtheshrink.livejournal.com]

[ doesn't answer for a while, too busy looking it over a few more times. murmurs a delayed response. ]

Indeed.

[needleinreserve.livejournal.com]

Planning on putting any of them on medication?

[adamtheshrink.livejournal.com]

... no. [ sets the chart on top of the desk. ] I do not think medication is the answer to any of their problems.

[needleinreserve.livejournal.com]

[ jots something down on her copy of the charts & smiles. ]

Excellent.

[adamtheshrink.livejournal.com]

[ finally allows his gaze to return to her, a very small hint of curiosity in his voice. ]

You agree with my decision?

[needleinreserve.livejournal.com]

[ raises an eyebrow. ]

You expected otherwise?

[adamtheshrink.livejournal.com]

Ah, not especially. I was just curious, I suppose.

[needleinreserve.livejournal.com]

[ takes another sip of her pepsi before she answers. ]

It is, however, still an option. Just keep that in mind.

[adamtheshrink.livejournal.com]

[ nods once, almost obediently. ]

Of course.

[needleinreserve.livejournal.com]

Alright, then. I think that's it... heh, until the kids come home, anyway.

[adamtheshrink.livejournal.com]

[ nods a few more times, as if simply making the motions out of habit. ]

Yes, I do hope they return with some good news. I still believe their time together is of vital importance towards, ah... "recovery", if you will.

[needleinreserve.livejournal.com]

[ shrugs with a small 'hm'. ]

Either that or they do more harm than good.

[ shakes his head slightly. ]

Avoidance is just as bad. If only they could open up to one another...
