So the thing about quartzpebble is meh's listened to far too many bad jokes...
...wait, no. They've listened to more and worse than that, certainly from me.
You've listened when you could, and looked after both of us by rationing when you had to. You've heard things too few people in my life can understand let alone empathise with. You're someone I can talk to about navigating and managing conflict in ways that may need force without things getting all "yeah, kicking ass!", and much as it sucks that any of us have to do that it's important that we support each other the right ways.
I hope I've managed to do some of that on occasion, because you're good people. May we find the places that let us do the most good with the least effort - and may that involve more collaboration than the alternative. Because I've not focused enough on that, and regardless of what helps me I sure see that as more important in you.
