69 - Private to Major West

Contact me or Rupert Giles if Ralph Cifaretto bothers either you or Billy again.

Oh, thank you, Mum, I'll get right on that.

You wanted me to do something about it. I did something about it.

You were right, Henry. If I had noticed the conversation sooner I would have spoken sooner, and I should have said more and made fewer excuses.

I can handle Ralph perfectly well. I wanted you to do something about your own behaviour, not tell me to 'tattle' when the nasty bullies say something, but as I'm not in the business of repeating myself any more, I'll leave you to figure the rest out.

What about my behavior? What do you think I've been doing while you were gone?

You were pissed at me for not telling him to shut the fuck up when all he did was TALK, and you're still pissed at me when I actually do. I clearly can't win here.

NO. I'm upset with you for behaving with blatant favouritism of him in public, then telling me it's alright that you've just made me look like your bastard stepchild in front of the others because you 'spoke with him in private,' which, frankly, changes nothing, since as far as anybody else can see, you'd rather jump to his room like a little devoted dog than behave with any modicum of dignity.

You would rather sacrifice my dignity in public to curry favour with him, and I find that pathetic.

I am tired of trying to get you to understand what the problem here is. It's over, I'm going to occupy my time with something else.

You're right.

...

What?

You are absolutely right.

I wasn't good to you, especially not in front of others.

I-- right.

I was nearly out of my mind when you disappeared, Henry. I would have done anything to bring you back, or to at least have someone who could know tell me you were safe, even if they lied when they did it.

When you were back, I didn't give a second thought to the fact that there were still problems with how I was doing things. You've been ~~home~~ here for days now and I haven't even come to see you yet.

You are absolutely right, and I'm sorry.

Well... Thank you. I understand I haven't been the most accessible person since returning.

Do you still want to take Billy to the Enclosure? It's changed by now. But I figure I can let you two in sometime, y'know.

Morgan, are you offering to... chaperon a date?

I'm offering more to let you two in and go about my business elsewhere. So long as you keep your journal on you and contact me if there's trouble, I figure there's no harm in it.

Oh. Right, um, I'll ask him.
