Gee, thanks. Little brat? You really manage to sour a compliment...

[Not that he didn't agree, but come on!]

I get what you're trying to say. But you're right about not giving it to her. Actually giving her a letter would be the worst idea ever. Her reading isn't that good. She'd think it was some kind of jab at her.

Considering how you used to act, little brat is practically a compliment.

If it was any other subject, I'd suggest practising the conversation with someone else first, but I don't think you are going to want to do that.

I try not to think about it. Remembering that makes me cringe. But I think part of the problem is that those memories are still the most recent for Sasha. She still knows more of that Jean than she knows of this Jean. Does that make sense?

And yeah, no. Not happening. I don't think I could even look myself in the mirror and say those things out loud.

[schachmeister]

It's true that Sasha doesn't have the same memories you do, but you shouldn't underestimate the time the two of you've spent here. You've already shown her that you aren't the same boy we remember. We might not have seen you grown into the person you are now, but we've all seen the end result.

Most of the time, I'm glad you guys don't remember the things I do. A lot of it is just... You know. [Traumatizing.] But it'd sure make things easier.

[schachmeister]

I know it's not the same as us having been there and knowing exactly what happened, but if there is ever anything you want to talk about, you know we will listen, right? Not that you have to talk if you rather wouldn't but. You don't have to hold back on our account.

[TRUST ME ARMIN, HE DEFINITELY DOES.]

Trust me, you already know everything I have it in me to tell. The rest is just... actually experiencing it.
