They haven't told me much about the other person but um
they used the word "abduct"
so...

[understood]

Did your friend tell you how their abductor responded after the influence wore off?

[headrushed]

still talking but um, i'll ask

i'm hoping it's better now

[understood]

Well, I know it's not much of an answer, but I would say that you shouldn't jump to a conclusion one way or another until you know more.

[headrushed]

thanks

I knew you'd have like, good advice so I'm glad I reached out before I went too hard either way

[understood]

Perhaps you can remind your friend that, even if they don't hold their abductor responsible for their actions because of the city's influence, they can still prioritize their own safety and well-being. They don't have to blame the other person to decide to create some distance, especially if this is the way that other person tends to behave when pushed to the extremes of their temperament.

[headrushed]

that's a good idea

and like, is it my business to encourage them to talk it through if they haven't?
idk what's overstepping and what's not

[understood]

I think you can encourage them, but let them know you recognize it's their choice and tell them you can let the matter rest if that's what they need from you as a friend.

This city's so weird
I hope weird stuff doesn't happen to us any time soon

[understood]

That would be nice.

[headrushed]

Sorry in advance if I ever act weird or mean or anything

[Ironic, since he's meaning because of the city when it might be more in line with being because of the whole possession thing.]

[understood]

Forgiven in advance. And, likewise.
