[Kaveh is laying at on a couch in his home, sprawled bonelessly across it, and he's clearly flushed. Given he's staring despondently up at the ceiling and not directly at the camera, this is not because he's having a good time.]

Hey...how are you s'posed to convince people y'care about them? [Kaveh laughs a bit, bitterly.] I'm clearly doing it wrong.

Sometimes you can't. You can say everything and do everything the right way and it'll never get through.

They have to want to accept it first.

Even if someone doesn't want to be swum back to the shore, shouldn't I still try to keep them from drowning?

[makoglow]

It's not that easy. Even if you drag them from the water, they might go back looking to drown. They don't know any other way to be.

[empyrean_mirror]

I'm not just going to give up on him.

Never said you had to. Just said that what you're doing is enough and the problem isn't with you.
