[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker you're doing a
good job. it's a
tough thing to
teach to anyone.

i'm... just happy
you're doing it in
general. i hope it
means less work
for you in the future.

you know how i worry.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

...someone
else has it.

they've got it.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker of course.

is it... what you
expected? training
a protege.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker m'kay. cuddles.

i don't think your
time was wasted
it takes a bit of...
time, to adjust to
the life you have.

and the responsibilities.
it's a way of thinking so
far from normal, for most.
humans.

he should still
applogize. he
was far out of
line.

but give him a
chance to.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker mrrm. true.
i do too.

do you... wanna
talk about it?

or just cuddle.
or both.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker and we could get
a bigger room. a
bigger bed.

more room for
a big bird. and
for cuddles.

...it makes me
happy to think
about. it's so...
domestic.

i like that for us.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker of course.

i'm sure they won't
mind. it... is probably
a bit hard, having so
little room. no time to
yourself.

i never really minded
it, because. i always
love being with you.
but it might not be
the same for them.

kids are complicated.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker a place just
for us. a home.

i think... it's
about time for
a change. a good
change.

money isn't an
issue. somewhere
a bit further from
people would be nice.

we could take walks
together. in the *sun.*

i... haven't done
that in years.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker a house.

we've been living
in this flat for... over
two years, now. and
with everyone we have
in the family, it's a bit
cramped.

we could buy a house.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker i'm serious when
i say that.

i love you too.

...we could
buy a house.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker i shouldn't have
left. i'm sorry.

i'm on my way
back now. i know
i can't change what
i did, but. can we
just hold each other
for a while again?

i'm not leaving
you alone ever
again.

i swear on my life.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker ...dekker?

hey, it's. i'm going
to stop myself, too.
and take care of mags
as best i can.

this isn't all on
you, i promise.
we're a family.

i'm asking you to
look out for me.
and i'll look out
for you, too.

neither of us
have to be alone
in this, you know?

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker been doing my
best. which isn't
enough.

i need to do better
than my best, and
i need. you.

i need you.

to stop me when
i get too stressed.
even if you aren't
sure, stop me.

things are. worse.
i need to be so, so
careful with myself.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker i was trying.

i just. just need
to try harder.

...when you Know
when your loved
ones are in danger
24/7, it's. it can be
difficult.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker yeah.

but then i just...
kept. doing it.
i don't think i
really believed it.

i want to be happy.
i... can't keep.
doing it.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker for the... all
of the saving.

trying to stop
people. physically,
or by just. begging
them to.

it's just hurting
me.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker that's. that's good.

and it's not fine.
i should've been
better. a better dad,
a better partner.

i was right.
i'm not cut
out for this...
this.

i need to relax.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@InternTabby cute bird...

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker i shouldn't have...
said. anything. i
think.

i was stressed.
wish i wasn't.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@InternTabby m'gonna stay with
sasha. for now.

love you too.

[Jon @advancedmimicry]

@AdelardDekker mm.

out on you. i just.
