The metaphor helps a lot, actually.

[Well. Helps in that he understands exactly what Ezra is getting at here. Whatever he did, it wasn't as complete and final as he'd wanted. Maybe the very act of leaving himself notes after, notes telling himself where not to go and what not to do, ensured he couldn't entirely forget. It had just seemed so stupid to erase something and then leave himself open to making the exact same mistake by virtue of having forgotten. He didn't need to know why he had to stay away from Ford Pines, only that it was bad, and that he was right to leave.

And now he's gone back on that here, hasn't he? And in a weird way that makes him even less keen to remember why he left, because if he does it might destroy the friendship he's just beginning to get back.]

I know it's a complicated sort of situation. It's kind of you to talk through it with me at all and I sure don't expect you to have some sort of magic solution.

[Well. He was hoping, but you always hope for the best, brace for the worst, right?]

Maybe we tackle it in parts instead of trying to handle the whole thing. I'd settle for being able to sleep at night. That'd be a good place to start.

Sleep can only help the rest of the stuff, I agree.

May I ask if you've tried anything in particular, before? Gone to any of the healers here at all?
