...I mean you shouldn't have to apologize. [so there's that.] But...maybe being persistent isn't bad. Depending on what's said. I think...if someone saw a memory of mine that I really, really didn't want them to, I'd be pretty mortified and probably lash out myself.
Maybe treating it like nothing's changed and slowly trying again is the best answer.
[she does, later, but right now, she absolutely does not want to apologize.]
I just - the... [she pauses, and bites her bottom lip.] What I felt from them, in that memory - I've felt like it. Not even just that, but I've never let this stop me before. The harder they push away, the more help they need.
Yeah...I can't say I disagree with you there. When you really convince yourself you're unwanted, or that you're trash, or that you're a detriment, undesired...whatever word you want, it's too hard to recognize that people might actually think that's not true.
...it'll work out. Just a little patience, even if it sucks.

Yeah. Hoo boy. I am not a patient woman. [a beat.] But I can be, if I have to.
[with a patience she had no choice but to learn.] Thanks, Aquarius.
