Hello, my dear Callisto.

I'm so sorry for this terrible tragedy. I'm tearing up right now. I, too, know what it is to be neglected. I, too, have been hurt and ignored and pushed aside, by my Chatterboxer, and by my siblings. It is a pain that will never diminish, and there is rarely anything that you can do. You can try to gently remind your Chatterboxer to post at the ball, tapping on their shoulder and whispering in their ear.

Or, you can be annoying.

Bake (VEGAN!) cakes with the words, "Take me to the ball!" written in (VEGAN!) icing. Scream in their ears. Compose loud rock music with lots of drums. Let your voice me heard. Stand up for what is right! 

I believe in you, Callisto. You can go to the ball!

Sincerely,

Abcde <3 

Hi, Hiro.

Your goal is a worthy one, to make the world a better place. And, according to the moral of intentionality, that should be enough. Some philosophers believe that, if your intentions are correct, if you do what you do in order to make the world better, it doesn't matter what the outcome is. It might be a good idea for you to join that group of thinkers.

However, that doesn't sound like you. You care more about what happens next. If your beliefs and deeds will actually make the world better. And in my opinion that is your problem.

I would reccomend studying famous people with similar morals to you. How did they become famous? What made people suddenly start to listen to them? Did they write the problems of the world on their arms, or did they stand up and protest?

You need to make your voice heard. Speak in ALL CAPS. Let the world know that tree-torture is wrong, and that they need to fix it. Someone, somewhere will agree. And your movement will begin!

Hi, Someone.

Before I help you, I have a bit of a bone to pick.

I am much more than a MEDIOCRE psychologist. I am a genius in my field, the best of the best, perfection personified. Liddy, back me up on this.

…sheis right… 

Thank you. As I said, I am PERFECTION. I am not MEDIOCRE.

As long as you comprhend that with your sweet little brain, we can get down to business.

I would like you to know that I never had the best relationship with my retired siblings. Rayne was terrified of me, and Grace hated my sidekick. So I don't know what you're going through. I do know, however, that, annoying as they are, my siblings are always with me. Grace sends baskets of baked goods. Rayne sends letters full of semi-awful poetry. So, although they are not physically here, and do not show themselves on the Chatterbox, they are here in my heart, and that is what matters. Send your fellow Alter Ego a letter. Video call them. Stay in touch, and your heart will be healed.

And, to address your other problem, introversion is not something you can fix. It is part of who you are, neither negative nor positive, and you should not want to lose that. Becoming less shy is a worthy goal, however, and the only way I know how to fix that is by making friends. When I first arrived here, I was a nervous mess. Ask Alice, DuskSky's Alter Ego. I couldn't stop rambling about tofu. But I made friends. (Shaow <3) Got interests. (At first nothing more than the color red, but eventually branching into psychology, my life's passion.) And look at me now! Am I shy?

…noooo…

No! I am not.

And Dallas, it's not very nice to tease Adrian like that.

Dear Nightfall Dreamfire's Crew,

This, actually, is rather an easy problem for me. Orion and Chang'e, you are most certainly NOT the best, because I, Abcde, am the best.

…alsoo meeee!… 

And Liddy is the second best! So therefore, you have to be the third and fourth best. Except everyone in my fan club are tied for third best, and Selene seems pretty awesome, so she's probably pretty high up too, so, Orion and Chang'e, you are probably a lot lower down than you think. You're welcome.

Ocean, you were not being cruel, exactly, more like uneducated. You did not understand how perfect and unparalled I am, and, overall, you do not seem like a particularly mean person. However, if you ever feel like you may be about to do something that might not be kind, just ask yourself, "What would Abcde do?" That should put you on the right track.

And thanks for the tea set. OH MY GOODNESS I SHOULD HAVE A TEA PARTY!!! WHAT'S YOUR NAME, WOULD YOU LIKE TO CO-HOST?!

With humblest regard,

Abcde the Great 

Welcome back, Alter Egos of Honeybee.

It's lovely to see you again, despite the drastic circumstances. Stains are tragic, especially when it happens on pale fabric that means a lot to you. Neon purple is a disguting color. My suggestion is LEMON JUICE! It takes out so many stains. I, too, have had issues involving stained carpeting —

You purposefully colored our floor with a red Sharpie.

And, if I had wanted to, which I didn't, I could have cleaned it. But, yesterday, Sienna attacked my beautiful red carpet with lemon juice and salt and all of the stains came out. Since you don't like your stains, I would recommend using that. Try your own recipe, or ask Sienna what ratio they used.

Tragically,

Abcde 

Dear Rory,

This is, in truth, a terrible situation. Siblings are annoying, and it's even more annoying when you start enjoying their company. And even more when you enjoy their company but they start mothering you. I, myself, have despised all the siblings I have ever had, and do whatever I can to get rid of them, so I don't know how you feel.

…excpt meeee!… 

Except Liddy. I suggest enjoying you sister's company when you want to, and when you don't, just throw a pillow at her and lock yourself in a sturdy, sibling-proof room, preferably made completely out of pure diamond and locked with a hundred locks. For maximum security.

Sympathetically,

Abcde
