"Yeah, pretty much. I'm really good at creepy staring, though. If it ever comes up." He sounds kind of delighted when he says that, which is maybe creepy on its own.
"Hey, it's okay. There's no... path to this. Not a straight one. And that therapist sounds really fucking bad, if you don't mind my saying. That's not funny. And it's not a good test."
Caduceus can't see the point in a comment like that beyond callousness at best, cruelty at worst. He sips his tea, seeming to mull over that for a few moments while he has the space to do so. Yeah, he doesn't like the sound of Jack's last therapist at all. He ponders briefly that he's more of a counselor than a therapist (based on what he's come to understand about the difference), but maybe that distinction isn't super important right this second.
"How'd you feel about that?" he asks after a moment, curious as to how that kind of comment impacted Jack and maybe also trying to open up some space to talk about it more.
