Nothing I've heard about, so I don't think anything did.

[Because there's no way Crow wouldn't be messaging if they actually worked things out. What a let down]

Haha, oh I'm sure I won't be. I'm looking forward to it.

[usurpers]

👌

[ about that, though . . . ]

You said it wasn’t going to be easy, and it isn’t. They’re practically afraid of themselves.

[fiddlestick]

Yeah, I know.

Apparently neither had many friends before the app. So I think they're scared of messing things up. And convincing them not to be afraid is easier said than done.

[usurpers]

Might be worse than that.

I talked to Crow that day, and I talked to Rean a few days ago, too. I saw his file. Their sense of self worth is bad.

Like really bad, Elliot.

[fiddlestick]

...Yeah. I know.

It's never good when I'm the one with a stronger sense of self-worth.

I'm just not sure what to do about it other than keep being positive at them.

[usurpers]

Talking and honesty. But for someone who's apparently selfless to point of selfishness and/or self destruction, I don't know how much of a good idea it is to listen to me sometimes either.

[ working on it. that's the most important part, he supposes. ]

Helping from the bottom could probably change everything. Rean hasn't had a major for two years and counting. Or an idea of what he wants.

[fiddlestick]

I don't know. You often give really good advice...even if you're not the best at listening to your own advice.

Are you suggesting we help him find a major? Isn't that something deeply personal?

[usurpers]

I'm aiming to hear the opposite soon.

[ will!!! power!!! ]

Yes and no. I don't want to suggest something directly, like, hey, you'd make a good teacher, because it's like you said, it's personal. Suggestions like that are no better than obligations. But maybe something less direct.

I don't even know I just know I hate seeing him berate himself in his head and try to hide it with some half assed smile and pretend no one sees it. No one deserves that, much less Rean.

[fiddlestick]

You can do it!

Yeah, I hate it too. Rean's a great guy, but he doesn't see it at all.

I'll try to think of a way to go about it that isn't suggestions. There has to be some way...

[usurpers]

[ after literally three hours: ]

Google.

[fiddlestick]

Google?

[It's been three hours so he is unsure if this is still related to Rean or not.

...]

Please don't tell me you JUST discovered Google.

[usurpers]

What? No.
I stopped using Bing last year.

[ don’t ]

I tried to think of something and couldn’t, so the only thing I could think of is to get advice from Google.

[fiddlestick]

[................]

How about we revisit this another time? Getting advice from google for stuff like this isn't always...the best idea.

[usurpers]

The first search result is an ultimate guide to choosing a major.

This is actually good. “Volunteer, do internships, school counselor”. Has he ever gone to a counselor?

[ “BUT HONEY!!!!!” ]

[fiddlestick]

I...don't know? We've never really talked about it.

[usurpers]

Then we’ll talk about it. Rean’s going to know what he wants before he graduates.

[fiddlestick]

Hehe, okay!

I'm glad you two get along so well.
