*Nerys is somewhat taken aback at the resemblance, but manages to hide it*
"That's much better. Do you remember what I told you when you were 8 years old, and you said that you hated your brothers?"

"I told you that while they make you mad and make you hate them know, later on you'll get over it and be friends again."

"Yeah...but I don't understand how that pertains to your situation. The Cardassians killed your people. How do you forgive that?"

*nods* "I guess...but it would still be hard, I mean...whenever you look at them, you see resemblances of the people who caused you harm. You never forget."

"That's true. I never will forget what happened. But, I will remember who died and what they died for. And I'll remember that the Cardassians I see are not the ones who are responsible for the Occupation."

"Now, I want you to go out there and apologize to your mother. And before you ask me how I knew you had yelled and argued with your mom, all I can say is that I know what this type of relationship is like."

"It's all right, sweety. I understand. But, I'm an independant woman. I can fight my own battles. Now, go out there and apologize to your mother. I have a certain Changeling to speak to about this matter..."

" 'Think'? No, Sennah, I KNOW he knows. He's been acting fidgety for a few hours now. I didn't know what it was about, but I'm pretty sure I do now. Oh look, he's waiting outside my office."

*snickers* "Okay. I'll let you get to that. Just, don't be too hard on the old guy, alright?"
