radiodust: The unlikely duo

early morning and... therapy? part 2

Later on angel and alastor went to Charlie's office and alasyor knocked politely on the door stating out loud "Princess Charlie! May angeldust and I enter your office?" The door opened by her assistants and guardians or familiars she had as a royal hier razzle and dazzle one of em had to use his wings to reach the door knob while the other was there to catch him in case his twin fell. Charlie was heard "Sorry I'm just trying to clean up my breakfast I had earlier in here! Figured I would eat while I got started on some paperwork and early!" She said giving her paper plate to razzle to throw away in the garbage and continued with, "So how can I help my friends today?"

Alastor looked at angel saying "Um angel would you like to explain?" Angel nervously asked "Charlie? Uh listen. Alastor has helped me and my family through a lot of shit lately I'm sure you probably noticed. In return I talked with Alastor and since you done pretty well so far with the psychological therapeutic shit or whatever it's called I wanted to see if you can help me with alastor's touch phobia in a way?" Charlie nodded with "Okay but what do you mean by helping you help him?"

Charlie nodded with "Only if alastor agrees to the treatment and the term is chiraphobia your looking for angel." Alastor nodded with a awkward smile "Okay um how does this thing work anyway?" Charlie said "Well I am free right now! I can do a introductory session to figure out the plan of action of what yo do? Its gonna be personal questions and you and i gave to sign a paper."

Charlie snapped her fingers razzle handling her a clipboard and pen with "I already signed my end with the patient confidentiality agreement  stating that nothing leaves this room without your permission. You just have to sign the part saying that you understand you got the right to take me to court but only if I do but you have to warn me if something you said you don't want told."

Charlie sat back onto a chair as alastor read it carefully angel then asked "Does that paper have like lawyer talk in it? You the kind right?" Alastor nodded looking through his monocle to read closely since it wasn't all just for show with. "Yes. In fact it does. It all seems good nothing on the downside at all Charlie just fee's which I don't mind paying." Alastor stopped reading and stated "Very well!"

Charlie was about to give a plastic pen but alastor interrupted with "No thank you dear! A good businessman always has his own!" He said pulling a fancy portable Dip Pen (like a old fashioned pen you gave to dip in ink every so often but a portable which does exist and is expensive) it was almost fully black marble but had a engraving in cursive French in gold saying "laissez les bon temps rouler" etched on it he was done and put it in his pocket.

Charlie then stated "First we need to talk about your life until your death to get a idea of where exactly your chiraphobia comes from then we can talk about how we can start the process of helping you cope or deal with it." Alastor sighed with "This is gonna be hard. Angel? I will warn you. Some of the men I killed were I think were hitman or bootleggers like the business your family took part in the same era we lived. It was New Orleans not Chicago sure but well I ain't exactly sure about the difference?"

Angel nodded saying "Appreciate your concern but get this Back then Al Capone himself wanted to expand to New Orleans right? He said to the mob down there Either have a partnership or go to war. They chose war and where one of the few in organized crime to ever have touch him and send his ass packing back to chicago!" Angel laughed at it with "Funniest part about it was in retaliation they had my hooked up with my pops crew and started using us as a distribution pipeline to expand in chicago! The only reason we never got attacked or in a war was the feds grabbed Al Capone before he could! We all know what happened after that!"

Alastor enjoyed Angel's story and was laughing with him here and there despite the fact they still had a session to do before Charlie cleared her throat interrupting with alastor apologising with his New Orleans slang at the end with. "Oh! Right! Therapy! My apologies cher." The nodded with "okay so do I start from my childhood or what?"
