(The text message initially comes in a bit garbled and glitchy, but fortunately Xanadu intervenes and cleans it up in place.)

If you're really finding yourself incapable of trust, I'm not sure that there is a way to force it. Well, other than probably massive amounts of psychiatric help, but then, if you were willing to trust a therapist, chances are good you'd be able to trust the other people you've been dealing with, so that could be a problem.

As for what makes me trust someone? Mostly it's that I can trust myself, and in turn my ability to get a sense for people and where I can expect that they will and won't have reason to try giving me trouble. Can you at least trust yourself? If not, well, that's probably the first thing you'd have to work on.

Hi! :D Yeah, sorry, I've been busy over in this other universe here. Time's a little wonky between here and most of the multiverse I'm used to, so it's been a lot longer for you than me.

Anyway, yeah, not being able to afford a therapist makes things difficult, too. Also, you'd need to find one who can take whatever you've got to say about the weirder elements of your life without calling for the straitjacket. Unless your aforementioned "good folks" know someone -- and if they did, leaving aside the money, would you be willing to trust their recommendation? -- that would mostly leave the Nexus/Xanadu, and I haven't found the track record to be that great there.

(Actually, there was one guy whose rep seemed decent. Never caught his name, don't know if he's still around. Not very helpful, I know, but it's at least nice to know that Jon "GAS THE NEXUS" Crane isn't entirely the face of multiversal psychiatry ( ... )

ill hide that blue shit you like to drink til you come back then.

you hit the nail on the head first off. i dont think i could trust any therapist anyhow. not that i got a lotta secrets worth keeping, not that it wouldnt be great to talk to somebody who wouldnt bat an eye at the whole undead thing, but i put my trust in folks before and got kicked in the face for it. still do.

thing is, i dont trust myself. i couldnt hurt you, itd be fucking hysterical if i tried, but i could hurt lee again. or brody, or anybody else who dont treat me like shit. that fucking terrifies me.

Why, thank you. Something to look forward to ( ... )

im sure 'i have this horrible urge to eat folks' is a pretty unique situation all on its own, so i understand that.
