this is

it's not easy to admit

didn't want this to be long term. thought I'd have more bloody will power than that. looks like it'll have to be. more than a month, any road.

bloody fucking hell.

managed to keep my head straight even when I lost my magic. figured that'd mean this thing was behind me for good. and by god, I did it. by the skin of my fucking teeth. she was strong enough for the two of us.

right now we're both just trying not to drown

she needs me just as much as I need her, and I can't drag her down with me.

sorted out that I'd been counting down the days til I'd be done with this last round of potions. if I pick up that bottle, and fuck, I want to

I need to

don't think I realised just how much

it'd

I'd rather cut off my hands than cause her any more pain.

you said to tell you by mid month. bit late for that.

figure it'll be a rough go til you get the next round ready.

my own damn fault.

As it happens, I thought it better to prepare for the necessity and not be called upon, rather than be called upon and not be prepared. I have the ingredients; I will begin the brewing tomorrow.

You do not need to justify yourself to me, nor do you need to make excuses. I am not your conscience; I am your potions master. Were I to judge you for weakness I would be more hypocrite than not, and hypocrisy is one vice I attempt to avoid. Do not berate yourself. The Contravinum is not a crutch; it is a tool. There is no shame in undertaking an honest self-assessment of your state, recognising a deficiency, and acting to shore up that deficency with external support.

I am pleased that I can be of assistance; I am only sorry I cannot be more.

And if you are in need of someone to listen, as well as someone to dispense potions, I will volunteer. While I cannot pretend I am at all competent at providing emotional support, you can at least be assured that anything you tell me, I will take to the grave.
