Dearest -

The talk with Dai, well, we are talking again finally, so that’s progress. Took an awful lot of yelling (more me than him) though. Hurrah for the amazing powers of sheer bloody-minded stubbornness, I guess.

Still at the Guild - Georg’s plying me with coffee and comets, and he says he’ll walk me home when I’m ready. Could be another hour or three, since I may as well check a few things in the library while I’m here. (And is that the first time I’ve actually called Spence home? Might be.)

And love? This argument, it made it so very clear how you’ve changed me for the better. Thank you for that and your patience.

Good to hear it went well, love. If things had gone pear-shaped, I'd hardly be able to do much about it- except pour you a drink, of course. But honestly, yelling? I don't fault you for trying, but see here, you've shifted the life-story he envisioned for himself, yeah? You know, the one where the two of you end up together. And blokes who are proud, they don't give up easily on that sort of thing. I expect he won't truly budge until he knows that his vision is just the stuff of fancy, which might not be until well after we're married. Or never at all.

I have a hard time seeing how I've changed you for the better. I'm sceptical, see, because you were pretty close to perfect when we met. Plus there's all those comments I get now about how a "good woman" has finally brought out the best in me and whatnot. So far as I can tell, the situation is quite reversed.
