*Hey, Sookie, can we talk for a second? I know things have been a little crazy around here lately, and honestly, I’m getting tired of all the supernatural drama. I mean, how many times do we have to fend off a vampire attack or deal with werewolves in the bar?

I care about you, and I don’t want to see you get hurt. You’ve got this big heart that’s constantly getting pulled into trouble. Just remember, you don’t always have to handle everything on your own. I’m right here, and I’m not going anywhere.

And I know I can’t fully understand what you’re going through—being a telepath and all—but I want you to know you can lean on me. I may not have special powers, but I’m strong, and I’m not afraid to step in when things get tough.

Look, I know you’ve got your mind set on helping everyone, but sometimes it’s okay to prioritize your safety, too. I’ve got your back, always. Just promise me you’ll think twice before jumping into danger, alright?

Now, how about we grab a drink and talk about something normal for a change? Like that awful casserole that Arlene brought to the last potluck. Seriously, I think it was trying to eat me! Let’s just focus on getting through this together, one day at a time.*"
