 Quinn Which came first, the phoenix or the flame?
This was one of Ash's favorite rooms. Not only could she practice piano and sing in a dedicated room, she could also scream really loud because it was soundproofed. The perfect combo. Currently, she was singing the lower part of Elsa's Song by The Amazing Devil bit by bit and trying to figure out how to play it on the piano, if it was even possible. Then she was gonna sing the higher part and try and figure out how to play that too. And then put together. It was hard work, and it kept her distracted. Given the choice between crying and doing this, Ash would pick this. And that was good. That was progress. This was how you healed, not by doing mandatory group therapy assigned by your school. Mandatory anything had the opposite effect from what was desired when it came to Ash. Would she consider doing therapy if Theodore or Claudine or Minjae asked her to? Yeah. Would she go along with mandatory therapy assigned by Hogwarts? Nope. Would she do group therapy ever? ABSOLUTELY NOT. It was bad enough having a therapist know what you were feeling, but the whole school? Including your enemies? Including the people causing her pain? That was traumatic. THIS was much better. Music alone was better. |
