[There's no real face shown as the video turns on, just a bunch of white hair and the sound of frightened breathing and someone being a whiny bitch in the background.]

I need a healer or something. Probably a fucking therapist, too, but mostly a healer.

Please.

Oh, I'm fucking excellent! My family is a bunch of idiots, s'all.

[seductless]

I see. [She does, too. Maybe not family, but that level of concern? Grace gets it.] Just be sure to look after yourself while you worry about them.

[umbrastaff]

I'm fine. I... I am.

[She has to be.]

[seductless]

All right.

[If Grace is at all skeptical about that declaration, she doesn't show it.]

I realize I am a stranger to you, but if you feel a need to talk, I can listen. Healing is not all about the physical.

[umbrastaff]

Thanks.

[She'll be sorry for the brush-off later, Grace.]
