How embarrassing. I can't believe I'm doing this.

So... I know a fellow who is rather... down on his luck, I suppose you could say. Now, he is attempting to mend relations with one close to him, but, sadly, either things keep coming up or--despite his excellence with words--he finds it difficult to articulate exactly what he means to say. ...Mostly because it is rather uncomfortable.

Sadly, it seems that this has only caused my son to wish incredible harm on me the rift to widen between the two. What would you suggest this person do to fix things?

Well, it isn't me, but it isn't quite as easy as you're making it seem.

My apologies then. I know too many people who address issues like that and really mean themselves. I must have read your situation wrong.

Besides, this person sounds slightly like a coward, if they can't speak what they really think.

I am not--! I mean... As I said, it isn't so easy as that. W-were you in the same situation as he was, you'd understand.

You think I haven't been in that situation? It happens all the time.

It's better to get things out in the open before things get bad enough that things can't be fixed.

Tell your friend. Trust me on that one.

It's... I...

[sigh] I will do what I can.

You sound as though your friend still isn't convinced. I'm willing to meet him to talk. I may be able to help a bit if I can get the whole picture.

W-well, that's... not necessary, but I suppose I could pass on the message. Where would you be meeting him, exactly?

[voice]

[oi-earthgirl.livejournal.com]

Wherever works, his choice.

The... Cafe Ersestat at H3, perhaps? If you must, I mean.

[oi-earthgirl.livejournal.com]

Deal.

When?

[mysterious-moi.livejournal.com]

Tomorrow afternoon?
