I've word from Amanda that Artie's been exceptionally anxious in art class. Now, I don't think it's Piotr and Shiro /unless/ Yana's said something to him. He only saw Yana get kidnapped and doesn't have clue one about any other connections. Artie /needs/ art class. It's really good for him on so many levels. I'm wondering if his concerns and bad dreams are cropping up in his art and that's causing distress? What do you think?
I don't want to make a deal of this, but I want to give him whatever support he needs. Do you think it might help if Miles went too? Would you be willing to kind of observe Artie for a few classes? I trust your instincts about this sort of thing.
On the other hand, I know you've been trying to regroup after being burnt out. Please be honest if you're not up to this, I don't want to burden you. I'll go myself and would be happy to do so, but it seems less disruptive to Artie if I weren't the one to go. Me being there would easily red-flag him to there possibly being a problem.
Feedback is much appreciated either way. Thanks in advance, Alison.

re: Bobby
Spent a fair amount of time with him after we brought him back, and then Mexico and all... and I - don't want to break trust. But just... be there? Now that you're talking again and all?

(ps - also, need your help. I want to get him back on a regular team training schedule. Just not sure when yet. But soon.)

re: Bobby
I understand completely. Being there, I can do, as long as he'll let me.
re: training. Here's the deal. After Stanley, I haven't really trusted myself to train around anyone else and God, I miss it. I did the Danger Room with Scott and Logan the other night, though, and no one got hurt, and I've been there with Pete and Piotr in the days. I've only starting training around /anyone/ this month and it's not always clean. That's why I've been ducking any group training, so I don't have to risk anyone or share my less than noble moments with them. Also, I've changed so much, I don't even know where I fit anymore.
You mentioned a morning team session. When's that? I'm usually training with Logan from 6:30-8:00am, but I can make exceptions. Do you think it would work if I asked Bobby to come with me, for my sake? I wouldn't be lying to say I'm nervous as hell to train around other people.

Re: training. Best way to find out how you fit in now is to join us. (Note - how you fit in now, not fitting back in - meant that.)
We usually do it around nine, but if you'd like a breather between training sessions (and because Hank will go "arg" but with lots more longer words if you don't pace yourself) we can set it for something like 10am?
That'd work, I'd say. Maybe in a few weeks, and we can start slow... methinks Bobby will hear you on that one, too...
