so...this should work?

[selfimage]

You're being selfish.

[inmyothertights]

oh i get it

wow i'm useless

[ you can almost hear his sigh. ]

How is it that you go from point A to point B without looking at what's inbetween? You can't heal someone to satisfy your own guilt. You have to heal someone to truly want to aid them and them alone. Your intentions must align with theirs.

[inmyothertights]

if it helps her how does magic not find that an aligned intention?

[selfimage]

It might not be what she wants. There are nuances in wants and desires, Billy.

[inmyothertights]

okay i clearly need to figure this out

[selfimage]

In healing arts it can never be about what YOU want. It always has to align with what the other person wants, and in that case, also if they wish to be healed at all. You get my drift, don't you?

[ he was never really good at it. ]

[inmyothertights]

yeah, i get it, kind of

[selfimage]

That's the basics of it, the magic words can come later. For now, some things are best left as they are.

[inmyothertights]

i told her i would try and help her but i guess i'll have to explain why i can't

[selfimage]

Or maybe start by asking her in detail what she wants to accomplish.

[inmyothertights]

i can do that

[selfimage]

Good, best to start there.
