[She walks in, decidedly happier than last week.] Mr. Crane... do you have time for me today?

"Certainly CJ," he says standing and motionign for her to sit down, "How can I help you today. You seem to be in... much better spirits than the last time we saw eachother."

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

I am. My daughter encouraged me to come clean, and I think it helped. [She sits] Are you doing well today?

[master-of-fear.livejournal.com]

"Very well actually," he tells her, "So, you talked to your daughter about what happened? How did that go?"

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

I, um...threw up. But Shane was completly wonderful. Everyone was. I couldn't believe how many people wanted to avenge my...thing. No one quite got that I wasn't really hurt this time. It just brought all that back. You know?

"Well, it's understandable that people feel strongly about it," he tells her, "Especially those closest to you. Dis you tell them everything?"

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Ah...um...no. I told them it was a misunderstanding. And I told them I'd been raped before. And that was all I said. [Suddenly, her cheerful mood has gone away and she slips her shoes off and pulls her feet up underneath herself.]

"Did you not feel comfortable saying anything more CJ?" he asks, "And was everyone okay with an abridged version of the events?"

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

[Quietly] I really just didn't think they needed the details to understand why I was upset.

Jonathan nods in an understanding way, "That makes sense CJ. And how did you feel afterwards, after teloing them."

[prof-cregg.livejournal.com]

Calmer. But...[She sighs and looks down at her fingers]...nothing.

[master-of-fear.livejournal.com]

"Nothing?" Jonathan asks confused, "You didn't feel anything after telling them?"
