My dear Citizens of Hadriel,

I'm glad to see that our circumstances haven't prohibited you from forming bonds with each other. On the other hand, aren't those same bonds difficult to navigate at times? I'm not only speaking of romantic bonds, either. Sexual, familial, bonds of camaraderie...

And I've no doubt our predicament is a unique stressor that can strain those bonds as well. And so many of you are suffering in silence. And it isn't just the present bonds, either, is it? Many of you are shadowed by your pasts, as well.

I want to offer myself as a supportive shoulder. If you've been seeking a second opinion, or advice, or anything of the sort, please, consider this an open invitation.

I care not to find out about your secrets; if you'd prefer to speak privately or anonymously, I will not begrudge you, nor doubt the sincerity of your claim.

I only seek to provide succor to those who have been needing it. Love can be...rather difficult to talk about it, can't it?

Bisexual, actually. I would never dream of limiting my options, nor others'.

[pocketspa]

Thanks for your kindly thoughts! You are obviously a warm and supportive person. You're right. It can be difficult to navigate the bonds you speak of, and Hadriel can stress them terribly at times. And yes, it's difficult to speak of these matters.

It is indeed. I do hope that this little project helps at least some people.

Trying to revive the advice column?

( OH lord. )

[perma anon text]

[vocarrah]

Perhaps it needed reviving, all things considered.

Hey fucko, can ya give a translation?? I can't read this shit!

[Voice]

[vocarrah]

[Ah? He can't read? Ianchus keeps comments to himself, though he finds that--and the rude demand--a little charming despite himself.]

I'm trying to help others out with their personal or relationship...hang-ups. [He learned that word here!]

Whether it's in Hadriel, from before, lover, friend, family...I'm just here to hopefully ease some minds.

Does that help?

It's not really love that's bothering me.
I know that my boyfriend loves me.
It's that I think I might be dead back home and I don't know how to cope with it.

[perma anon text]

[vocarrah]

That is certainly troublesome.
You worry that your loved ones are hurting and you've no way of of reassuring them nor giving them closure?

[am_i_a_monster]

I think love and family's easier here than it was back home. Because I've chosen who I bond with here. It can still be scary, but it's better.

What's made you want to help people? Are you having issues with your relationships here?

[perma anon text]

[vocarrah]

Fresh starts are usually easier, aren't they?

As for what made me decide to help. I'd hope my relationships are fine, but I feel that people here...fear speaking about it, I suppose. My hope is to help ease that.

How altruistic of you.

Come now, be honest. Do you really care? Or are you just desperately in need of interesting gossip?

[perma anon text]

[vocarrah]

Believe it or not, I care. Or at least want to help. There's plenty more interesting gossip than the worries of the heart, don't you think?

Bonds, confidants... You're right that these relationships can be difficult to navigate, but
I think it's very selfless of you to want to help us with our concerns, whoever you are.

[perma anon text]

[vocarrah]

I'm glad you think that. If you think that anyone could use a sympathetic ear or a second opinion, please do not hesitate to send them my way.

[demonsional]

I don't know a lot of these words but I think that I am very much agree!

[Yeah!]

I like to talk and be the one who is being talked to so nobody is never ever ever sad! But I don't think I have very much to be, um, giving, um, answers and things.

perma anon text

[vocarrah]

That's incredibly kind! It's okay if you don't always have answers. As long as you're ready to help people be less sad whenever you can, that's what's important. Thank you.

[hellosirs]

That's very thoughtful and nice of you, sir or ma'am!

[vocarrah]

Of course.
If you know anyone who needs an ear, do let them know. That's open to yourself, as well.

Interesting to find someone who actually claims to care.

[Something that Leo finds a hard time with even at the best of times. He just can't find it in himself to really care about the mundane, everyday things that people seem to fret over all the time.]

[vocarrah]

If it's as interesting as everyone is making it out to seem, perhaps it was long overdue, then.

[ DiMA reads the message through twice before deciding that it sounds genuine, which is 1) a lovely sentiment and 2) makes the anonymity a bit disappointing, since his only option is to reply publicly. Anonymously or as himself. He chooses as himself to better facilitate this, since it's not something to be discussed on the network. ]

This is very kind of you, stranger. My confidant is not present in this city so I'd like to take you up on it, but texting is very difficult on my hands. Must you remain anonymous?

[Voice]

[vocarrah]

Is this better?

[Ianchus isn't overly concerned with his 'secret identity', so speaking is no problem--he did it for the lad who couldn't read, he'll do it for this man.]

I prefer to stay anonymous as long as I can, but I suppose it's not the end of the world, if it means I can help.
