Strike in a place unexpected

[One of the transports carrying goods to Alhambra deposits a weary-looking person in a nun's habit. Except that nuns don't normally have horns, betraying that it's actually Ren.]

Ahh, it's good to be back! This place starts to feel like home for me, you know? I'm happy to report that the refugees received as much help and assistance as they should. There's still a lot of labor awaiting them, but that's something they have to do themselves. Their lives and well-being are no longer in any danger.

I must admit, that was some hard work. The living conditions were not ideal, though I'm used to it a little. Still, I don't regret it. In fact...

[Ren smiles embarassingly. Wait, is that blush on their face?]

I'm glad, and not only for those people. I mean, for myself. I had the pleasure of meeting a wonderful individual.

So, what happened while I was gone?

Probably. It was a rather...pointless thing...

They have requested I see the base's therapist now, which I shall. If you have any advice, for dealing with others...

Hmm...

[Ren can't recommend "treat everyone with kindness and optimism". It's not Eva's style, obviously.]

I'll say this: don't escalate. Even if you have to deal with someone you don't like, don't make the situation worse by saying or doing things that will anger them, or by trying to pick a fight. It's okay if you don't let them walk all over you, but don't try to walk over them, either.

At least, that's my advice. The therapist will probably be able to help you a lot more.
