[Yeah, he thought he was. He isn't sure why he's bothering trying to help, he knows he's total dogshit at this.

When he replies he's a little quieter.]

... Sorry. I'm not sure what you wanted to hear from me.

I wanted to find common ground, so we could talk again. Now? I don't know. Feels scorched.

If you still care about me at all, please don't tell anyone this. I can't deal with the idea everyone might look at me the same way you will.

[A disappointment.]

[levelshift]

You get used to it.

[He's saying that dully, even though it isn't totally true. Yeah, this has happened often enough that he expects it, but if he were truly numb to it then he wouldn't be feeling bad right now.]

I won't tell anyone. I get it, this is personal and nobody else's business.

[I don't want to get used to it.]

Thanks.

[And now this time, he doesn't answer further.]
