Ouch.

I didn't even know she had your number.

which is to say that she maybe grudgingly kind of believes him, on a probationary basis at least.

after a pause, another text comes.


Nell's been through a lot of shit. In life, and in the past year.

but that doesn't cover what she's trying to convey, even in an unspoken way. so:

Just don't give her the impression that she can lean on you. She's more than you can handle, and I won't watch her get hurt.

she's more than the crains themselves can handle, but at least the margin isn't as wide. at least they've figured out how to deal with it over the years.

Honestly sir, I thought it was a joke because I looked like I was new in town.

I believe you.

addressing that part first, because she's almost not sure if she wants to address the rest of it. but a short pause later:

I know how it seems. I know how she sounds, and how it looks when she has four siblings and she can't get a single one of us on the line.

she's not even going to defend it. she's not innocent here. she screens nell's calls when she just can't be assed after a full day of work. but the crain siblings all cope in their own ways, and trying to help one another through those coping mechanisms just makes everything worse - and they've largely come to realize that this includes nellie, no matter how much they might worry.

While we're on the topic, the mayor wasn't turned into a gorilla, was he?

Networking has such an impersonal connotation.

I know. But I'm choosing to.
