I actually haven't seen much of the man, not since a week prior. I've been only just allowed to leave my room, you see. I got myself into a bit of trouble, but to save face I won't go into it. I haven't received any correspondence from him, which troubles me, but I also understand because of the date.
Please do check up on him, Hestia. I think you'll be of more assistance as you are, being made of flesh and bone to be more precise. And he'll want to see a friendly face, even if he doesn't realise it immediately.

Oh, I see. Right then, a trip to Paris it is. I'll go see how he is. Hopefully not too bad, but you never know. Either way, it won't be anything I can't deal with. Thanks.
Re: Miss Hestiadim_problemJuly 7 2008, 00:25:14 UTC
Not a problem at all. Right, I better get going. Time difference and all. Nine's acceptable, turning up at ten, I might wake the man up. Which would be unfair.
Re: Miss Hestiadim_problemJuly 10 2008, 00:42:27 UTC
Nick, you asked me to get back to you. I'm back, and I'm getting to you. Or something of that nature.
He's alright, you'll be pleased to know. Well, as alright as can be expected, but he hasn't done anything stupid, and was quite grateful to see me, to make sure he didn't. He certainly wasn't all there or prepared to move further than his kitchen, but he was better than I really expected. Testament to you, I'm sure. Even so, I got him in a reasonable state and left him in the trusty hands of someone he works with. That one that drags him out to parties. He turned up at some point yesterday, as apparently, he'd called in sick. That was a bit awkward, but all is well.

Oh, that is wonderful to hear. A step in the right direction at least, which is reassuring. Very reassuring. I'm glad you checked up on him, and thank you for keeping your promise to let me know. I'm sure he was very glad to have some company from you. He is terribly fond of you.
Ah, yes, his work friend. Good. Good, good. I like this man.
Here I was worrying without needing to bother. Other than awkwardness and the forced isolation for a few days, I'm very glad he's alright. Thank you, again.
Re: Miss Hestiagryffin_ghostJuly 10 2008, 01:21:39 UTC
Naturally, I would have done the same. Even still. And yes, now I'll stop thanking you.
He's taken a shine to our Abime. Dragging him out to be social and the like, which I'm sure you approve of as well. He doesn't need to be by himself days and days on end.
I'll write to...no, I'll pay him a visit soon. I'm sure I could. I'd like to see him for myself.
Re: Miss Hestiadim_problemJuly 10 2008, 01:24:26 UTC
I noticed. And yeah, I approve, although I'd like to go with them, dammit. What kind of 19 year old am I when my old teacher has more fun than I do? But you're right, it's good for him. Not to mention, he pulled through when it matters too, so he's not just looking for a party, y'know?
I'm sure he'd like to see you too. Try not to surprise his mate. Whose name I never caught?
Re: Miss Hestiagryffin_ghostJuly 10 2008, 01:31:29 UTC
He's only forced into having fun, though I recommend going out and finding some friends. Or forcing someone into friendship, perhaps with bribery. How much money do you have?
I tease. But honestly, Hestia, don't stop yourself from having fun if that's what you really want to do. You're too damn responsible at times, from what I hear.
I doubt I'll surprise him. I have excellent timing. And if I do surprise him...he's a wizard. He'll live...unless I scare him to death. I'm not surprised that this work friend of his would show up, not surprised at all. If he's willing to make Abime have a social life, then he must like the man.
Re: Miss Hestiadim_problemJuly 10 2008, 01:36:00 UTC
Wait, let me count...not enough.
Oh, I know, but you have to be responsible. These days. Everyone else is too busy being responsible to have any fun too. And more people depend on me than do on half of them.
That's why I said surprise and not terrify. It's reassuring to see it happen, though, isn't it? I don't think Abime gets why he likes him though, but does he ever?
Re: Miss Hestiagryffin_ghostJuly 10 2008, 01:40:12 UTC
People might depend on you, but don't lose yourself, Hestia. You've got to find yourself a good balance, or else life isn't worth living, is it?
No, he never does. Though he might be on his way to valuing his own worth, but it's a bit of a struggle no matter what. He just doesn't understand our attachment to him. Such a shame, especially as we just won't go away.

Oh, and will you tell him that I'm sorry I didn't write to him? That's the last of my requests. Thank you.

He does seem like a nice guy. His enthusiasm is abounding, and that's coming from me, the Welsh ramble-o-matic.
He will be alright, yeah, I don't think there's need to worry. I'm sure he'd like to hear from you, still.

We're like evil friendly limpets. Cling on, no matter what.
