[Dearest Coco, if you ever meet his man please don't judge Lorenz too harshly for his taste in mean little gremlins who don't wear shoes...
Odd: it is actually surprisingly harrowing to, ah, tell a dear friend about his Relationship, so her polite surprise is a huge relief. Once again he is not shamed out of existence for not being married with children... wonders never cease.
Anyway, friendship is beautiful, he's so glad, what an excellent afternoon tea after all!!]
Oh, um— thank you. I... hope so as well.
[But before he gets too soft and sappy, ahem--]
You are of course more than welcome to come to me whenever you need something. Anything! It would embarrass the Gloucester name if I were unable to offer sound advice to a dear friend.
[Just "sound" because "expert" is too much of a stretch even for him. Halfway decent advice at no cost except, perhaps, social anxiety. It happens.]
