Kind Of Healing

So this will be very sad. There is context tho, and it's not just a lazy way to get their stories out of the way (I would've made a one-shot for that/j).

Does/Did anyone else talk about heavy stuff with their friends? Ik my friends and I used to, and it just felt nice to know that someone was listening and we'd never use it against each other. This is basically what that is.

This is...I'm sorry if this is horribly timed. I didn't mean for it to be. Sorry.

SirFrancis: I think we all need some healing

vroomvroom: why do you say that

speck: ^

SirFrancis: because I realized we all have a lot of trauma and it might be best if we dish it out with each other, let us know we're not alone

Nerd: Okay, but what counts as trauma?

Sin/CinnamonRoll: Anything, really

CarrotTopIsOffensive: yeah there shouldn't be a label on what is and isn't scarring to you

SirFrancis: you're valid, Dave

Nerd: :)

vroomvroom: I'll go first!
vroomvroom: so, when I was small, my mom died and I didn't understand that But my dad was so grief ridden and hurt that he took it out on me and just...stopped trying
vroomvroom: so I spent a good amount of my life trying to make him happy

speck: I'm sorry racer

vroomvroom: it's okay Because I've accepted it and I know that it's in the past now so i can move forward.

SirFrancis: thanks for sharing that with us race

WalkingStick: yes thank you

Nerd: We're proud of you for telling us.

vroomvroom: thanks:)

Sin/CinnamonRoll: could I go next?

SirFrancis: of course

Sin/CinnamonRoll: my parents basically neglected me ig
Sin/CinnamonRoll: they already had so many kids so when I was the last one in the house they were off on dates and taking trips
Sin/CinnamonRoll: they just stopped parenting

CarrotTopIsOffensive: Ellie:(

Sin/CinnamonRoll: it's okay al bc I'm talking it through with my family and we're growing into having a better relationship

SirFrancis: hey! There's a bright side to everything
SirFrancis: proud of you, El

pins: wait what's going on?

Nerd: We're sharing our trauma to get a better mental, physical, and emotional understanding of each other. El and Race already went.

pins: oh
pins: okay
