Lycoris Anger Management:

Chisato

Alright everyone, let's start with deep breathing exercises.

Bakugo

This is stupid! I'm not some weakling who needs therapy! I want to blow up something!!!

Revy

Look at the pretty instructor trying to tame us. This should be fun.

Prince

Kakarot sent me here as a joke. I don't need human coping mechanisms. Also put out that damn cigarette, it stinks somehow worse than you.

Bakugo

Seriously, Revy that cigarettes makes you sweaty ass smell worse.

Revy

What did you both say? Want a hole in your heads? I've killed for A LOT LESS!!!!!

Chisato

(This is exactly what headquarters warned me about... but maybe if I can survive this, I can actually help them)

Chisato

You know what? You're all angry because you're scared. Scared that someone might actually understand you.

Revy

Understand? Understand this: I'm about to bust a cap on this failed prince.

Prince

FAILED PRINCE!!!???? YOU'RE A SHITTY GUNMEN AND A FAILED DAUGHTER. THAT'S WHY YOUR DAD GOT DRUNK AND LET YOU GET TOUCHED BY THE COPS!!!!

Chisato

Let's try something different. I'm going to show you why you're all here.

Bakugo

These losers couldn't handle my training regimen. That's why they're stuck in therapy.

Revy

You think you're tough, explosion boy? I've buried tougher punks than you in the sea.

Prince

Pathetic humans. I'll show you the power of a true Saiyan elite!

Bakugo

DIE! DIE! DIE! KILL YOU ALL!

Revy

(Time to put these freaks down)

Prince

GALICK GUN!

Chisato

You want to know why you're really angry? Let me show you something.

Chisato

(Bakugo at age 5, crying because he couldn't save his friend... Revy at 8, holding a photo of the family she lost... Vegeta at 10, watching his planet burn...)

Bakugo

What? How did you know about that?

Revy

No, that's from the welfare office I ran away from. After I shot my dad...

Prince

How dare you!!!!!! I don't want to live this memory again!!!! I should BLAST YOU ALL NOW!!!!

Chisato

Now that we're all on the same page... who wants to talk about their real problem?

Revy

My dad... he used to come home drunk every night. First it was my mom, then when she couldn't take it anymore... it was me. Even the cops took me too.

Bakugo

I was supposed to be the best! But when my friend was getting hurt, I just stood there like a coward while my mom screamed at me to be stronger!

Prince

I served the monster who murdered my people. Every mission, every planet destroyed... I told myself it was for survival, but I was just too weak to fight back.

Revy

The cops? They laughed when I begged for help. Said a girl like me deserved worse. So I learned to shoot first, cry never. The cop also took my virtue

Bakugo

I CAN'T BE WEAK! I CAN'T BE LIKE THEM! I'LL KILL ANYONE WHO SEES ME LIKE THIS!

Prince

I let my entire race die! My father, my people... all because I was too proud to run, too scared to die like them!

Chisato

You're not weak. You're survivors. Every scar you carry means you're still fighting.

Revy

My dad and the cops. They made me feel less like a person. They stole my innocence and I just wanted the world to burn for it. I hurt so many people.

Bakugo

I... I don't want to be the kid who couldn't save anyone anymore.

Prince

Perhaps... perhaps there is strength in admitting weakness. Kakarot learned this long ago.

Chisato

Next week, we start over. Not as patients and therapist, but as people who understand each other's pain.

Chisato

Final exercise. One minute. No explosions, no gunfire, no ki blasts. Just words.

Chisato

Show me you've learned to channel that anger into strength.

Revy

(Three weeks ago, I would've shot the instructor for this. Now...)

Revy

My anger was drowning me. Now it's fuel. For protecting people, not hurting them.

Bakugo

(Being the strongest doesn't mean destroying everything that scares me...)

Bakugo

I used to think weakness was the enemy. Turns out, refusing to face your trauma is the real weakness.

Prince

(Kakarot was right. There's strength in vulnerability. Who knew?)

Prince

I spent my life proving I was the strongest. But the strongest thing I've done? Admitting I needed help.

Chisato

You three have come so far. From wanting to kill each other to...

Chisato

Actually becoming friends? I'm tearing up.

Revy

(Old habits. But I'm not that person anymore.)

Revy

Hey, explosion boy. Think you can teach me that breathing technique? Might help when the memories hit.

Bakugo

Only if you promise not to shoot me when I mess up the first few times. Deal?

Bakugo

Also, the name's Bakugo. Not explosion boy.

Prince

(This feeling... it's not weakness. It's connection.)

Prince

Perhaps we can train together. I know a gravity chamber that could help us all channel that anger productively.

Chisato

(Sometimes the most explosive personalities create the strongest bonds. Who knew anger management would turn into friendship management?)
