>>Transcript: Krios … um … fuck. Can't believe I'm doing this. I need your help. I walked into a trap. So stupid. Don't know how long I have before they find me. Some crazy bitch after revenge managed to pull one over on m- [startled gasp] shit.
Human, Amanda Olana. Apparently, I killed her brother a couple of years ago. I don't know how she found out. Don't know how I didn't make the connection before I got here. Oversight of the fucking century. Didn't think anything about being hired by some wannabe warlord. How many criminal empires have I been hired by before this?
She's … um … she's taunting me with calls and messages. She knows I'm here.
I'm fucked, Thane. Stuck in a goddamn closet, just waiting for a literal fucking mercenary army to find me … No way out. Only have one gun and a knife. Was supposed to be a quick in and out job. No games. Ha. So stupid, was gonna "play it safe."
[Sharp inhale, crying]
I sent the coordinates ahead of this. I don't think she'd go through all this trouble if she didn't want to make it last, hurt me real bad first. You know me, I'm a big girl, I can handle pain. It doesn't scare me. It's not my first rodeo with torture.
But fuck, [hard sobbing] I'm scared of dyin'. An assassin who's afraid to die, fuckin' stupidest thing. 'Specially with how we carry on.
[Deep inhale, exhale]
They'll be here soon. I'm gonna take as many out as I can before they get me, so it may end up a moot point if I eat a bullet or piss someone off too much. I don't really expect you to come, but I've got no one else to even ask. If there is an afterlife and you don't come for me, I won't hold it against you. I've more'n earned this fate. I know that.
I know I'm rambling, don't know what else to do. Nice to know someone's going to hear what might be my last words, I guess.
Do me a favor, Thane? If … um … if I don't make it, or you decide not to come for me, will you go visit momma's grave for me? She's buried at Elk Gap Memorial Gardens in Elk Gap, Tennessee, North America. Earth, obviously. [crying] Her name is Hannah Shepard, S-H-E-P-A-R-D in the English alphabet.
There's a honeysuckle plant growin' on a … a fence near her plot. It looks kind of wild, it's a plant with little yellow and white flowers. I know you'll recognize the smell before you see 'em. Put some on her marker for me, they were her favorite. Tell her that Marcy missed her, but I probably didn't get into heaven, she won't see me again.
You have my permission to carve my initials next to her name. Closest I'll ever be to her again. Ah … shit …
[Her voice falters, only crying can be heard.]
Now you know who I am, where I'm from. I tried to hide it … from myself mostly. Sad little orphan from some hick town in the mountains. Seems so stupid now. Who gives a shit where I'm from? Hell, most aliens don't recognize our accents, and I don't have any family to protect. Just my own fuckin' pride. Don't even remember why I started pretendin' to be someone else. It started before I became a killer.
They're getting closer. I'll make every bullet count. Try to hold on as long as I can after they catch me.
I'm sorry, Thane. For puttin' this on you, and for everything else. Hope you'll pray for my soul if things go more fucked than they already are. Kind of hope that your afterlife is real.
Always liked the sea.
Goodbye, Thane. Hope I see you again, and not just because you're the only hope I've got.
[Deep inhale, exhale]
[Singing, shakily] You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray. You'll never know, dear, how much I love you. Please don't take my sunshine away.
[Whispering] Fuck, I'm so scared.

Okay, so this is Tumblr...
Tumblr, hello!
I feel like the polite thing to do is introduce myself to you all!
My name is Ryan or "Dr. Mick" (he/him), and I host [Game] Sessions with a Therapist. Although I may not look like it (and I hear this all the time), I am a licensed couple & family therapist with a PhD
in Human Development.
I stream over on Twitch where I play video games and use them to help illustrate mental health and psychological concepts shown within them. I do a lot of pausing, so be ready for that if you stop by, which I hope you do!
While I am a therapist, I am not YOUR therapist.
Any interactions with me or the information I provide do not constitute professional advice. While I’m more than happy to offer and discuss general mental health information, no one here is bound by or in possession of an official service agreement with me.
What do I plan to do with this blog?
A lot of what you will find here are mental health tidbits from my current or past playthroughs. We have a pretty big backlog of stuff for you all to enjoy! Occasional YouTube playthroughs may pop in here as well, but for the most part, it will be the little short tidbits. Maybe some nice little gifsets eventually 👀
The rest of my socials and all that good stuff:
Discord - stay up to date with the stream and hang out with our amazing community off-stream.
YouTube - watch all my previous playthroughs and also lots of good mental health Q&A's and interviews!
TikTok - get those mental health tidbits immediately!
Instagram
Twitter
Thanks for reading all the way down here and I look forward to sharing my stuff here with you all!

Yeah, so Steam and I are going to have to have a talk about all of these sales they’ve been having... 😲😳😉
I’ve wished I could play Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain for years now, ever since I saw a walkthrough for it. A $4.99 convinced me to pull the trigger but I, um, upgraded to the Definitive Experience for the extra Ground Zeroes campaign as well as a bunch of fun skins/outfits. It was $7.49, so I thought that still was a good deal. 😁👍
Master Chief is still getting the bulk of my love, though, I’m at nearly 330 hours of play on the MCC, lol! I’m at about 4 hours of play on Mass Effect Andromeda. The rest are still waiting their turns.
For my friends with multiple games on Steam, do you typically uninstall games as you finish them to make room for installing new ones? I honestly can’t see it being worth my time to ever uninstall any of the Halo games but I’m not sure if all of the others will have Halo’s impressive replayability. 🤷♀️

Me, to myself: You just dumped close to 70 hours into this Cyberpunk run, you’ve finished the ending and would need to go back at least 10hrs of gameplay to try the secret ending. Play a different game, play Elden Ring, or LOTRO, or—
Also me, with the Cyberpunk brain rot: *hovering over the New Game button, ready to make the same V with 90% of the same choices* but I’d have such a new perspective with finishing the game
