Solar X Ruin<3

(Chap 3) The therapy session

(It's now a week after Chapter 2 TW: Mentions of SH, Mentions of Suicidal thoughts)

Solar has been going to more therapy sessions with Earth after they escaped the abandoned place, everyone was worried about Solar's mental health, especially Ruin

Earth's POV:

Solar has just came in for a therapy session, me and the others are worried about him, he's been more....distant, recently.

"Hello Solar"

"Hey Earth"

"How are you doing today?"

"Good...i guess"

"That's good, now, have you had any bad thoughts recently?"

"Sometimes..."

"Okay, have you harmed yourself?"
No response
"Solar, you do know it's alright to have done that, right? It's nothing to be ashamed of"
He slowly nodded
"Can I see? It's completely okay if you don't want to show me"

"I-I guess..."
He took off his gloves, revealing multiple scars all over his wrists.

"Oh...oh dear..."

Solar's POV:

I show Earth the scars on my wrist, she looks in shock, I put my gloves back on

"Solar, I....i honestly don't know what to say, but, I do recommend you try and take care of yourself more, I have been noticing, as well as many others, that you haven't been charging, you've practically been living off of coffee, it isn't healthy at all"

"I just...ive been busy"

"Busy with what? You've been more focused on doing what other people need of you then taking care of your own mental health and well-being"

"Fixing things..."

"For yourself? Or for someone else?"

"someone else..."

"Exactly, you need to start taking care of yourself, you do know you can say no to people,right?"

"Yeah.."

"So why don't you?"

"I wanna help them"

"Is that really the reason?"

"....no...."

"Then what is the reason?"

"Moon, in my dimension, told me it was rude to say no to people that need me for something, I know it isn't true, but....its hard to believe I can say no to people after fully believing I had no choice for so long"

"That's completely understandable, Solar, but why didn't you tell anyone?"

"It never came up"

{3rd Person}

After the therapy session, Solar went back to the theater, he had googled some advice to help stop s3lf h@rm, but most of it didn't help, so what he did, was remove all the knives from around him, he created devices that'd do tasks that required using knives, for the most part, he stopped self-harming, but he couldn't stop the suicidal thoughts running through his head. Every now and then, he'd have small panic or anxiety attacks, that anyone nearby would help with, Ruin and Moon were especially good with helping, but no-one, even Them and Solar, knew why. But Solar appreciated them helping him through his attacks. The next few months were normal, no one got hurt, or kidnapped, or anything of the sort, and Sun, Moon, Ruin, Earth, Monty and Lunar were planning something for Solar
