Mm... well, probably I could handle most of them—or at least, probably any that you'd want to ask of me. I'll warn you that I'm not very good at giving orders, though that might be a positive.
I mean I think I'd feel a little weirder about it if you were people-shaped right now but that's normal for cats, so I think it sounds less odd.

Mm... I mean, I have something that’s been on my mind, I guess, and I feel like I could talk to you about those things.
I’m in a situation where I want to make amends to someone who I used to be friendly with, but I don’t know that they’ll accept it, and I wish I hadn’t... well, wronged them in the first place, I suppose.
I think part of why it's become difficult is that, ah... for me, it feels like a mistake, but to them it's part of the pattern of their whole life? If I'm reading them right, and I think I am.
I almost... well, I almost convinced them to accept reparations, but I had to rely on another person for the sort of amends I wanted to make, and they refused to help. But they were willing to accept that if it had worked, so maybe there's something I can still do?

I guess, maybe... I don't know if you want to talk about regrets this early in the... whatever time it is.
