Having heard all this, Arrian was puzzled, and said so: "I didn't realize you were on such good terms with Alithea, T. I thought she tried to annul some writing of yours (in salt then, too). What changed her mind about you? Or yours about her?".
At that, Arrian blushed and tried not to look away, and said, "Oops. Sorry. My mistake. I didn't think of its happening before… I suppose I'm still not used to thinking out of sequence. I'm sorry you and Alithea fell out, too. She sounds like the sort one would rather have as an ally than an enemy".

I'm not sure what happened. But I'll find out. I always do, whether I want to or not.
