Solus zos Galvus.

[Really? That guy?]

~~Did you just ask your boyfriend who~~

Okay. Hi Sully.

He is not reading this at the moment. Should I permit him to? I suspect he will speak to you at a later date in private.

That's up to you. I told you earlier I was okay with you sharing it with one other person you trust should you need to for assistance understanding what I'm saying or some other respectful reason.

So based on this so far, Era, I have agreed to send you information from my medical journals on PTSD, Cognitive Behavioral Theory and Cognitive restructuring Techniques as soon as I find a method of how to do so, probably tomorrow. You get that no matter what you say next.

My question is, do I have your expressed consent to provide you with tutoring on these topics plus social skills in a manner that is safe and supportive of both of our mental health?

I will be discussing things with my husband as well, however I will not be seeking his input for our conversations.

So long as I maintain the right to rescind said consent if I so choose.

Who is he again? And yeah, I reserve that right as well.

Okay with that out of the way, we have a lot to work out. What would you like to discuss tonight? We shouldn't try to do everything or I might blow my brains out.

Ardbert.

I have an ability I cannot control where I will relive another person's memory, or set of interconnected memories. It happens at random. The other person is fortunately unaffected by this.

In theory my boyfriend should be able to dampen it.

Really, he's one of yours too?

[Those two did not seem like the swinger types, but hey whatever they enjoyed. Either that or it wasn't just sugar and coffee that made Ardy squeamish. When he got the message he stared at it for a long moment unsure what to say to it.]

I meant of our issues, but this might work better.

Just so I know, you're wanting me to help you cope with this ability, right?

They are mine, yes.

I am warning you that I cannot guarantee I will not experience some of your memories as you lived them.

It does not happen too frequently, but it is a possibility that exists.

I see. Just by texting you could experience them?

No, it requires my soul to be within physical proximity of another.

It has only happened four times thus far in this world, which is a significant decrease compared to my home.

Let me get this straight. So you have a condition that you cannot control, that has made you take something that is personal and private from someone else four times without their consent, but you call it 'doesn't affect the other person'. But when I explained I had an issue out of my control that resulted in a breach of confidence but could reassure you that I was doing what I could to minimize any harm that had caused, you said I was.. what? 'Explaining away the issue'?

Explain this to me.

Unaffected. As in physically they are unharmed. Psychologically they do not relive their trauma.

If they did not bear witness to my fits or I did not tell them what I experienced, they would never have known.

I have apologized to those involved, explained, and offered what recompense I could. I was more distressed over the invasion of their privacy than they were. They did not seek to hurt or punish me for it despite my giving them the opportunity.

They were satisfied with apologies.

[Tony thought that over for a few moments. It wasn't precisely what he wanted, but it was damn close. ]

Then you have my apology for your information getting shared to Gladio.

[ She takes longer to respond than a such a short message would need, but she had never expected to receive an apology. ]

Thank you.

[It had been an emotional day, not just because of this but a few things with Gladio too. A lot of things, in fact. As it was, when she didn't respond immediately he figured that was the end of their conversation. He got up and started getting ready for bed.

She caught him brushing his teeth when the thank you came back. He thought of what to say while he finished.]

You're welcome. I'm done for tonight. If you want to/ need to talk more you can message me after noon tomorrow. Good night

[He needed some peace and quiet and time to think during the morning after all of this.]

Undoubtedly the boyfriend will contact you. I will make sure he sleeps in.

[Uh... what? He's just going to choose to believe whatever that means is 'a swinger's thing'.]

Okay.

[He turns off his phone then. Anything that gets sent before like 10 am the next day, he doesn't get until that later time (but he still gets!)]
