You're right. I did stop saving him, after a time.

I wouldn't do again what I did. Regardless of the role his choices played in his own consequences.

[Hmm. An interesting answer. What's more surprising is that she somewhat regrets asking.

Well, all right. She can change the topic easily enough. So, after a little pause:]

Tell me what I should do to prepare for the lesson.

[roseblooms]

You're trying to make me feel better.

[Which they're both aware of, of course, and which doesn't actually bear commenting on. And yet still, he remarks upon it. Maybe it's just a nice observation to make.]

Your hearing isn't nearly as sensitive as mine. I don't suppose you could find some way of addressing that, while I ready the rest of it for you?

I'm told it's what friends are supposed to do.

And I can certainly try. Simple amplification shouldn't be too much of an issue, though it still might not be as good as yours.

You have many of the traits and behaviors of a friend, Rosalind.

It should prove useful eventually, I would imagine. There are some aspects of the process I simply take for granted, and it wouldn't do to have a lesson interrupted by my asking you to listen for something you're physically incapable of hearing.
