The following day, Sadde goes to town at a reasonable time to buy a tiny cactus with some of the proceeds from his terribly tedious job, and sneaks it into the bag with his clothing he brings to Isabella's room. It is inside a cute little box, which he offers Isabella the following morning when she wakes up, saying, "Happy three-month anniversary!"

Sadde: is bewildered.
He sighs and looks around and wow they've been talking for a while haven't they. Isabella's probably gone.

Yeah, alright. He gets up and goes to work, then pauses work for class, then returns for more work.
During a lull in same (not in itself a rare event), he walks up to a librarian. "Excuse me."

"Do you happen to know where I'd have to look for information about what therapists are or aren't required and allowed to break confidentiality for?"
"Hmm, well, the psychology Dewey Decimal is one fifty, but you might actually want law, three forty, or social services, three sixty..."

He—does not write that down, because he didn't bring pen and paper and also he has the Dewey Decimal almost memorized by now anyway, but he makes mental notes of the suggestions, thanks the librarian, and goes find books about this.
Social services first, probably.
Social services first, probably.
The Dewey Decimal system is pretty good for targeted browsing and not actually that great for finding an exact topic.

Yeah, doesn't he know it. He browses, finds a few likely books, selects one (no use checking them all out, even if he's probably literally the only person who will do so) and, at the end of his shift, checks that one out.
It's dinner time. Is Isabella in the cafeteria?

"Yes but I do have what if I were fictional could be reasonably called a Tragic Backstory, it does give me a certain sense of proportion whenever I feel too much like complaining. It's... oddly cheering, to be quite frank."

"It's, you know how some parents tell their children they should feel lucky, they're privileged, etcetera? It's kinda like that, but a bit more real. I have a gorgeous, hot, smart, ambitious, amazing dom, I'm in a great magic school, I'm going to make everyone immortal, and I'm gonna have to visit an abusive piece of shit for break sometimes and pretend you've converted me into a submissive girl and even that is not, comparatively, that terrible. History class surprises hold no threat to me."
