[Jack R, Bruce W, Sam A]
[Early afternoon. Loose and messy, as if she just woke up.]

[Jack R]
I would like to request a favor, if that is alright.

[Bruce W]
I know we didn't
There's no danger this time that I forced you to
I was just wondering
How are you?

[Sam A]
[After checking with Jack.]

I will likely be able to arrive early Saturday afternoon. Sometime after 1:30 p.m.

	I'm fine. How are you? Were you at the party? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I was. I wanted to check, since I know the last party went [...] poorly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

~~I don't have~~ Sam wishes to meet, and of course I have agreed to go. I managed to arrange the time with my doctor, even though it is rude to continue asking so much of him. But he has agreed to transport me there and pick me up again. I admit that I'm not anticipating that this visit will end in my being forgiven. I fear I will likely come away still being cast out from their family, but I would never disagree to meet if they ask. Her especially.

	[Almost instantly after the previous.] And I just realized that was likely far more of an answer than you were expecting. My apologies. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: bruce w/iris r onerule 2013-11-07 02:07 pm UTC (link)
	You don't need to apologize for giving an answer to a question I asked. [...] He is your doctor. I doubt it's asking too much of him. A meeting is a start, isn't it? She's certainly not obligated to see you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I believe there is a difference between attending our usual meetings and asking him to escort me to and from places on his personal time. Though my other option is to not go places. If it were only me, I would not worry, but I cannot keep from going through the door. It seems unfair to ask that. Though this meeting is not a trip through the door, and it will once again be on my doctor's personal time.

[...] Perhaps you are right. I admit that I cannot see how that might be, but she was the one that asked. Of course, it came after my name appeared on one of her entries, as I remain unable to keep control of my pen and any bit of ink makes me appear. And this, after I was attempting to avoid accosting her with my presence in her life.

	I doubt he minds, Iris. Have you asked him? [...] Regardless, she could have ignored your name. She had the choice to either do so or acknowledge you, and since she chose the latter there must be a reason. [...] Accosting her? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: bruce w/iris r soundofwings 2013-11-14 03:47 pm UTC (link)
	[Finally realized that IJ never posted this wtf.] I do not believe he is the type to say if he minds. I need to be responsible enough myself to not abuse his good nature. [...] Perhaps you are right. I still think I will not be too optimistic, however. [...] Forcing myself where I am neither needed nor wanted? It's not physical, but it's still an invasion.

	Re: bruce w/iris r onerule 2013-11-15 04:07 pm UTC (link)
	[IJ is pure eeeevil.] You're hardly abusing his good nature by asking for such small favors. [...] No, I understand. Optimism often leads to disappointment. [...] You've kept your distance, you mean. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[It is! Boo!]

I [...] fear we are simply going to have to disagree. I do not see them as small favors. I see it as abusing his kindness.

Yes, quite. ~~They~~ [Pause, crossed out.] I realize I am no longer a part of the family. So I have done my best to respect that with my absence. Though I have made several missteps in attempting to check to see how they fare. Sam, most especially. I have contacted other people [Pause, press of pen to page. Finally slowly. Admitting it.] I believe I may have stalked her a bit.

	I'll let her know. [...] She wants to meet at Neil's home. He lives in the Aria Suites. Is that alright as well? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Jack R/Iris M soundofwings 2013-11-05 01:17 am UTC (link)
	Oh, no. I don't anticipate needing to go anywhere else. Not at the moment, at least. I know that I already monopolize quite a bit of your time as it is. I promise that I am not making plans to further snatch away hours on end of your personal time. I realize that asking for part of your weekend is already out of line, but it was the time she requested. (Reply to this) (Parent)
