[Sorey writes that down with a cheerfully chirped, "Thanks!"]
Unfortunately, it's true, and innocent people usually get hurt because of it. I try to choose to trust that most people are good in their intentions, but still maintain a healthy amount of caution. That's very much a personal choice, though.
[It's the only way to keep himself from jumping at shadows that might not even be there.]
Perhaps it's because he's never seen that side of you. Still, two people should be more than sufficient for his comfort, but I wouldn't begrudge him a third if he felt he needed to have that many.
Eheh, that's a viewpoint I can respect. I try to be like that, but it works out less than I'd like...
[He's a bit more cynical than people would expect out of him, much to his dismay]
Oh, he has! We took down a monster together earlier this month. I think he just hasn't gotten over that I'm short, I'm used to that from some of my guy students. [Them teenagers in love with their growth spurt] I'll talk to the others about it. Thanks Dr. Rosewood.
There's nothing wrong with that, I don't think. Experiences greatly color our choices. Whether it's good or not depends on how it makes you feel, at the end of the day.
[Ah, yes, that'd do it. Sorey is just glad that he knows size means nothing in terms of whether or not someone can take another person down.]
Hopefully he grows out of it... It's not a problem at all, Elliot! Thank you for asking. I hope it all works out for him, I really do.

[It will at least be considered during his daily bout of undeserved self-ridicule. ]
Here's hoping! Maybe once he grows up and matures some.
Yeah, I hope so too. Still, you've been a great help. You take care, okay?

[And he'll hang up so he can send that email over.]
