Hello, fellow abductees,

It has come to my attention that a number of you do not like Dr. Sweets. I did not like him either when I first met him, so this is understandable.

In an effort to help strengthen his standing within the community, I am requesting that you please state if you do or do not like Dr. Sweets, and why. Please also respond if you are indifferent on him, as more data will allow me to form a more complete and accurate conclusion.

Thank you for your assistance.

I'm both personally and professional better at gauging and analyzing relationships and social situations.

[Are you really gonna argue with him on this. >:c]

[He's changed his mind. No need for stressing out about what to do about the gods and the Null and whatever else; death can just take him. He's ready.]

Fine.

[He knows when he's lost a battle. But, switching over to a private connection--]

I probably could've just told you while people don't like me. I'm usually aware.

[And sure, sometimes the reasons he's 'aware' of don't actually exist, but that's a minor side problem.]

Everything about this subject is biased on all sides.

[SO THERE.]

That's not really possible, for one thing, which is why we prefer blind studies in psychology.

For another, everyone who responds has a bias.

[Lance had been trying to figure out if he should say anything; on one hand, wow this is all really awkward and he doesn't like how pointed that comments had gotten, but on the other Brennan doesn't need him intervening on her behalf and it's good for her to work out this sort of interaction on her own.

But now he feels like he really should have said something, because it's clear enough why Brennan's attitude had changed in this message.]


It's okay, Dr. Brennan. Really.

[He's entirely capable of standing up for himself, and he would've been more forceful if he'd thought it was really important. She doesn't need to apologize.]
