Do I even want to know what that journal entry was about? And the stuff I've been getting down the link all day? I'd ask the source, except he's doing my thing and hiding.

Manuel and I are going to be working together on some remedial academic stuff as well as the empathy training. The Professor's idea, since Manuel didn't do so well on his courses this year (I'm assuming you probably knew that), and not an idea that Manuel particularly liked, as you could probably tell from your link.

You'll have to get him to tell you anything more... he has to be able to trust that I'm not going to start divulging details, even to you. I promise, though, that I'm going to do my best to make sure there aren't any more mornings when you get stuff like that down the link.

That makes a whole lot of sense - we've already disagreed on the school stuff before, and I had a feeling it was going to bite him on the arse, even with Ms Frost off doing her own thing.

No need to tell me any more - I understand the trust part. I'll talk to him later, if he wants talking. Or whatever.

Maybe it'd be an idea to give me a copy of your timetable with him? Strange wants me practicing my shielding any way and that's a perfect way to test it.

I suspect he'll need to, and I certainly can't be any kind of sounding board for him. (Which maybe makes me a bad person to be doing what I'm doing with him, but beggars can't be choosers and I'm a masochist.)

It'll be mornings between 9-12. Maybe not right until 12, depending on what we're doing that day, but every weekend morning, barring holidays. Nice, regular schedule.
