Things are shifting, the ground is soft underfoot. You can't trust where you're stepping, and collapse is imminent. But what does it mean to collapse? To fall, to crumple to the ground? To relax against someone, exhausted and needing that weight against you as comfort? To lose something intangible, something you didn't know was so integral to your …

Lennox knows this and he'll use it to his advantage, she knows that. But he's not the only one who knows, and the shadow grows longer and longer and touch…

"Walk a mile in someone else's shoes and you'll understand them better," that's an approximation of the saying, right? Well, what about their socks? And their pants? And their shirt? And their skin? The feeling of their muscles and bones moving in concert, a feeling you understand but is still completely and utterly foreign to you, because they are…

Another client is looking for closure on a chapter of their life that they want to be done. But closure isn't easy, or wanted, or guaranteed. Sometimes you're left…

Hello, and welcome. Here at Emiel, we like to think of ourselves as a community. A family, even. One not tied through blood - although that is a part of it, in a sense - but through a shared commitment. You help each other. You support each other. You stand by each other. That is how things work here. At the very least, it is the environment we hop…

What flashes before your eyes as you die? Memories, thoughts big and small that nested somewhere in your brain, echoes you ignored. But in those final flashes, the silliest things can be brought to the forefront: Unimportant conversations, odd moments, even cases you never put that much importance in. Now, that last one only really applies if you w…

You can only run for so long. At some point, you have to face your problems head on. Usually, you'd do this in therapy, but Grace is tired of platitudes and obfuscations and questions. She wants answers and there's only one person who can give them to her. But that means no more running, no more avoiding, no more looking away. You have to face your…

The past will always find its way back to you, whether it is the distant or the recent. It comes back with claws, ready to pull you into its embrace. You can't escape the violence that made you. It will always find a way to hook itself into your skin, burrow under, and then wait until you think you're safe. The past Grace has been running from is c…

The worst kind of joke is not one where no one laughs, but one where the joke-teller takes a violent, unyielding umbrage with your lack of mirth. The joke is on Grace when a not-so-funny artefact goes missing and someone from her past makes a sudden return. It's really no laughing matter though when Lennox reappears, leaving her with more questions…
