What do you do when you make a mistake and anger someone close to you? How do you make it right? Besides saying 'I'm sorry,' of course.

Well, I can say from experience that walking away because they're clearly better off without you is NOT the right answer to that problem.

[Even when statistically it seems like it.]

You know, I've got a slightly suspicious feeling I know what this is about. He's still pissed?

I would suggest to work towards reversing the damage done by your mistake, sir. Which, of course, depends on what the mistake was and what can be done about it.

Right. Who are you n' what'd you do with Sherlock?

[acclimatized]

You can promise to never make a mistake like that again.

That or buy some more milk.

[thevictoriandetective]

So you're saying if I buy more milk, that gives me a free pass to make the same mistake again?

[thevictoriandetective]

I have no intention of doing that.

I severed two fingers of an immortal volunteer I offered pilfered opiates to, for a scientific experiment, in the kitchen of the place I live with my roommate/colleague. Said colleague walked in on said event. I also got blood everywhere and the cat almost got into it.

[acclimatized]

You're hilarious. No, it doesn't mean that at all.

[thevictoriandetective]

Was worth a shot.

Contrary to popular belief, I have learned some things over the years in human interaction.

:)

Where are you anyway? We need to talk.

[thevictoriandetective]

Out for a walk. Helps me think sometimes. Care to join me?

We should have put down more tarps. That wouldn't have solved everything, but it would have kept you out of the doghouse.

[acclimatized]

Sure. I'll just get my coat.

[thevictoriandetective]

I'm at the park, just down the road. By the benches.

[acclimatized]

See you in a bit.

[thevictoriandetective]

Obviously.

You're decidedly much more helpful when you're not high.

[thevictoriandetective]

I don't know.
