Private Finished Today on Dr. Phil

Vinna sat there in a soft office chair while she waited for her young client to speak. Doubting that young Rei would care to use Vinna's name for the first little bit of their visits she would wait until Rei spoke first. She turned to make sure that her note pad and pen were within easy reach for when things were done but Vinna didn't like to begin writing anything in front of her guests. It usually made them self conscious and anxious about what she might be writing down. When Rei did speak up in a sharp to the point way Vinna just gave a soft smile and looked back to the young one.

"They only told me that I would be seeing you every now and again for a little bit, anything else they might have said was irrelevant as that could have ruined our first interactions." Keeping her posture and voice friendly and calm she moved some of her long shiny white hair over one of her ears. "From what I can tell just as of this moment, I'd say that you got into a fight with someone. You don't have to answer this next question if you don't want to, but I want to hear in your words what happened." Vinna let the air begin to grow the tension of a small room with two people being absolutely quiet to grow. Rei seemed nervous to have the silence around so until they said what happened or told her to 'mind her own business' she was going to wait. She had all the time in the world to do so.

Vinna simply listened to Rei, she did not move her head much other than to gently nod and simply let the young one speak his mind. If she interrupted him or if he thought she was not interested in what he was saying than he would probably shut down and nothing she could do for the rest of their sessions together would help in any way. When Rei finished Vinna. "Do you know what this girl said that might have set you off about humans? Like did she say something along the lines that 'humans are superior' or was she degrading others who are human?" Vinna let that sink in for a moment before she continued.

"Now, something else I want you to keep in mind as we talk about this. Are you ashamed of your natural body? Are you using magic to help you mingle with the other students or to run from what you are underneath the magic?" Vinna's words were not meant to harm only to bring the subject up, to let Rei think about those prospects. Even Vinna's tone was almost sad as she said those questions. Being honestly worried that someone as young as Rei would be having this kind of problem.

Rei's voice increased in volume as Vinna could only assume that this was going to be a very sensitive topic for today. All she did was ask them to keep it in mind as they talked but Rei wanted to bring it into the foreground and talk about it directly. It was, a little unfortunate for the young Rei. Anything Vinna would try to say now about it to move to a different subject would only force a barbed arrow to move in the wrong direction and lengthen the process of him healing. With a deep breath to let Rei know she was going to speak Vinna kept her voice calm and level, simply explaining what she meant rather then raising her voice to match. That would only create conflict and they were here to fix that. "I only asked for you to think internally upon this. But a larger percentage than one would think of shape shifting creatures sometimes end up hating or being ashamed of what they actually are."

Vinna pointed to the corner of one of her eyes as she kept eye contact up with Rei. "My eyes allow me to see how people actually look, though with a few size differences if they needed to shrink down to fit. I wanted you to think on this to come to a conclusion as to how you feel about your own body. Now I suppose I should ask this as a follow up since we are talking about it up front. Do you change back to your Original Form when at home? Or did you change your home to fit more into your Glamoured Self?" Vinna's tone was that of caring and worry. A voice that wanted to help, in a way she was asking Rei if he would let her help him by talking with him. Vinna could only hope that he would, if he closed down and wouldn't talk to her than he was going to be in trouble with the school sooner or later.

"You'd actually be surprised how many non-human like beings become ashamed of their true self after extended time looking like a human. It is good that you are comfortable with your natural self, that along with your strong stance against it tells me that isn't the issue then." Vinna smiled gently as she spoke. This wasn't the first time that her gentle words had provoked this kind of response. Though this also did tell Vinna that she was going to need to be a lot less oblique in her questions and to help Rei face them head on. Let them have something to push against to let them grow. "Now, like you said before. What the person said about humans made you become confrontational. Has the topic about humans provoked this before or has this been the first time that it's happened?"

((OOC: sorry for the short post))

It seemed that Rei was at least now responding better to how she was speaking with them. But Vinna still needed to work this out with Rei before it could become a problem. "It's not just the fact that you were defending yourself or a friend Rei. It was the violence and aggression that has the teachers worried." Vinna let out a small quiet sigh as she tried to think of the words she wanted to use with Rei to let them understand.

"How about we try this for now. We'll schedule another visit here for next week, in that time I want you to make note of things that might build up to cause you to react outward again." Vinna reached over to her desk and pulled out a small note pad, small enough to fit into a pocket. "I just want to you carry this around with you. Let you write any thoughts or..." Vinna was about to say feelings but young boys didn't usually like to acknowledge them. "any actions that you would take when you get the rising feeling that you need to act out against someone. Okay?"

She smiled kindly at Rei, "If nothing happens than nothing happens and we can move on. But if something does happen than it is going to be up to you to be honest with me okay? I want to you have this responsibility between us. I'm not going to check in with the teachers, I won't read the reports of what happened in the week if something did happen. It will be up to you to tell me what is going on in your life and to let me know about it." Vinna wasn't going to expect anything for this first week though. She judged that Rei would feel guilty internally after the first week and they could work on the problem in a week or two after they reported in on what was going on with their school life.
