The Pledge binds, and a sweet-smelling Spring breeze blows past the both of them, carrying the Pledge on the Wyrd.

"I appreciate your apologies, dear boy, and I know you won't do it again. All is forgiven."

A small smile.

"I've been meaning to tell you- the phones have a text to speech and speech to text functionality. Erin mostly makes use of it, but I don't see any reason why you couldn't; I imagine it might make life a little easier for you in that respect?"
midnightroads: (wtf)

Blink. Blink-blink.

"Oh. Uh, maybe. Would people think it's weird, though? I mean, shit like that, it's made for folks like Erin, it wouldn't be some kinda...appropriation or nothing?"

"Here's a question for you; what threshold of suffering or discomfort with this part of your life would be 'sufficient' before you'd be 'allowed' to use the accessibility tools that come standard with these phones? That I should remind you, cost nothing, impact nobody else, and do not need to be disclosed to anyone?"
midnightroads: (toast)

"I'm not suffering, I'm just stupid." He shrugs like that's a foregone conclusion.

"I'm daft as they come, so you're in good company there. But does that mean I don't have the right to make my life easier, if there's something I'm struggling with?"

Empathy for others is so much easier than sympathy for oneself after all.

"'Snot the same."

He pulls the lid off his coffee to look into the cup, as if he could scry in the liquid's surface. Or perhaps so he can dunk a pastry in it.

Ossie sighs. Rather like arguing with himself shortly after he dropped out of university. Bash will sit on this metaphorical nail until he's good and ready to get up off it, and there's nothing Ossie can much do about it.

"Thank you for telling me about this, in any case. This was... nasty business, soup to nuts, I can only hope we're not in for a repeat."
midnightroads: (press x to doubt)

"Yeah. Definitely want to avoid this shit. Like holy shit it's awful." He siiiighs. "How do we make this all okay again? Move forward?"

"Give me some time and a little grace, and I'm certain I'll find it in me to forgive you."

Ossie stands to give Bash a gentle pat on the arm.

"I'm not the sort that holds grudges against genuine mistakes, old thing. We'll be alright."
