Would you consider a new suitemate? For various reasons, it's inadvisable to have Tommy Jones in a suite by himself. You struck both Jean and myself as the most trustworthy candidate in the right age and gender range. Without going into too much detail, there have been incidents - I suppose we should have expected that, given Tommy's former affiliations and his attitude. Your presence, in that sense, would be a deterrent, and I know that we can trust you to keep an eye on Tommy as well, and advise us if there's anything going on with him that we need to know.
I realize this is a lot to ask. I'm basically proposing to stick you with possibly the most difficult suitemate imaginable and a fair amount of extra responsibility. If you don't want to take it, that's perfectly all right; we can find someone else. But you were, as I said, the first and best candidate to come to mind, so I thought we needed to give you the option.

Date: 2005-12-06 02:59 pm (UTC)That's it in a nutshell. You certainly don't have to befriend him - if that happens, so much the better, mind you. Jean believes he may be beginning to understand how difficult deliberately isolating himself from the rest of the students might make things for him, so he may be more receptive over time. In either case, I know that I could trust you to be the responsible party onsite to ensure that we don't see any repeats of the incidents this week.
It would involve moving into his suite, yes. I already have alternative arrangements in mind for Artie and Miles, if we go ahead with this. I'm sure you can understand why it might not be a good idea to expose the boys to him on a daily basis.

I've thought about this overnight, and I accept. Will someone be telling him about the new arrangements, or will I surprise him?

Thank you for agreeing to do this.
