...I guess. [Where does he even start with that? ...] ...He said he was sorry.

[agoodname]

"I should hope so, if he was in the wrong." [gently, but...] "That's unusual, though. For you."

[enigmaster]

...No one's ever apologized for this before. [Or. Well. People haven't really apologized to him much in general, but. Elijah can probably guess as much.]

[agoodname]

"Why is an apology important?"

[enigmaster]

...People just never really seem to care about betraying my trust, I guess. They just act like it's no big deal or they were right to do it or... whatever. [...] I'm still angry about it, but I kind of expected him to just brush it off completely.

[agoodname]

"And he didn't." [Elijah considers that] "And...what are your thoughts on that?"

[enigmaster]

I don't know. It's... weird.

[agoodname]

"It's weird that your opinion and thoughts mean something to him enough that he realized he had misstepped in a big way?"

[enigmaster]

[Well, if you're just gonna come out and say it...] ...Yes.

[agoodname]

"...is it a good weird or a bad weird?"

[enigmaster]

I... [He... trails off. That should be an easy one, but.] I'm not... sure...

[agoodname]

"Both, then?" [gently] "Good because it's nice to know that your opinions and thoughts are important but bad because it's different?"

[enigmaster]

[... damn it Elijah stop making sense?] ...I guess. I'm not really sure what to do with it.

[agoodname]

"That makes sense if you've never dealt with it before." [he considers again, for a minute] "....what do you want the result to be, once you talk to him?"

[enigmaster]

... I don't know.

[agoodname]

"So it's all one big...unknown."

[enigmaster]

Yeah. Kind of.

[agoodname]

"I can see why that would be rather confusing and stressful."

[enigmaster]

Kinda.

[...]

I don't know. I guess I'll just talk to him and... we'll see.

[agoodname]

"That's probably your best bet, yes. If you're not sure how you want the situation to pan out."

[enigmaster]

Mhm.

...Sure.

[He doesn't know... what he's expecting out of this. Just. Wait and see. Okay.]

[agoodname]

"....it doesn't make the wait time any easier, does it."

[enigmaster]

No. Not really. [Knowing his luck it'll go poorly. So, you know.]

[agoodname]

"....do you want to play chess in the mean time?"

[enigmaster]

[Edward kind of raises his head at that.] ...Yeah. Sure. [That'll keep him occupied.]
