[ she can't even bring herself to use voice for this - just sending this message out in general is already embarassing enough, but she can't think of it by herself, so.. have some written text, Luceti. ]

So, let's say there's a person who did a lot for you, and even though you still can't really take it in you feel like you should at the very least try to do something back for them in return. Since it's only natural, and maybe you want to show you care as well or whatever. Something like that.

But all the things they did are so big combined that you can't even start to think of something that would be big enough or of equal value to give in return. So.. what should you even do in a situation like that?

... Purely hypothetical, I mean.

......

This is stupid.

[ good to finally have a tsun-blind person to speak to.. ]

Yeah, they're a really nice hypothetical person. You don't have many of those around anymore, but this one's a special case. [ she's saying it with a deadpan tone, but it's probably some sort of joke. ]

But.. what sort of little things should that be, then?

...I'm not sure. I guess it'd depend what kind of things they did to help you and what you're good at.

If it was me, I guess I'd make things to help them, or help out when they had things they needed to do.

Unfortunately I don't really have many creative skills. Or any useful skills that could help me with making something for him, either way. What kind of thing would you make to help them then?

[kindofamouthful.livejournal.com]

Huh, If I didn't have alchemy, then I guess I'd try to find out what they need help with. And if I could help out with that I'd do it. If I couldn't, I guess I'd try to find someone who could. And if they didn't need anything then-

-I guess I'd try to find some special way just to tell the how grateful I was. Like a thank you party or something.

Yeah, I get what you mean. I just wonder what would be big enough to represent all the gratitude I feel for it. I feel like everything I come up with isn't big enough.

You're putting a lot of thought into this, for a hypothetical situation...

But I guess it's nice to think about someone being that helpful, isn't it?

Maybe I just had a well thought out hypothetical situation. [ totally nothing else. ]

It's.. exactly because they would - hypothetically - be so helpful that I want to do something back. I'd feel bad if I wouldn't.

I think if someone was that helpful, though, they wouldn't expect anything back. Maybe it'd make them happier if you let them know how much they'd helped you, rather than giving them something. Or maybe you could let them know that if they ever need help, you want to be able to be there for them like they were for you.

Yeah, I guess you're right.. It's not like there's much else I can do in comparison. It's just weird in general when people give you that much out of nowhere when you didn't even ask for it, you know?
