I get it. Some things don't need to be discussed.
And then I immediately follow up that statement with: So what's the situation with our esteemed Dr. Waldinger? (You can tell me this is another no-go topic. I'm just nosy, it's a fatal character flaw, and I'm betting on our established rapport to learn some extra details that I'm not actually entitled to.)

The annual exam? Yeah, I'll forward them to you. Nothing really unexpected, though. [...] Which is good.
That's allowed.
I'm doing good right now, actually. Mostly dealing with other people's problems. [...] I forgot to tell you about my brother, didn't I?

It's fine. I do it all the time.
Oh, it's not a secret. It's just stupid. He developed liminal abilities about a year ago that let him share bodies with other people and he's been stuck inside his girlfriend's head ever since then because he refuses to learn how to use them. [...] His birthday's later this month and I know it's going to kill our mom if he doesn't answer her calls. He already cancelled on Thanksgiving.
Anyway. How are you?

I've been doing it for years. I'm fine.
Yeah. She's sweet. And I don't think she'd be here if it weren't for Willy.

You should. I think you'd like Eden. I haven't really seen her around much lately. I've been worried about her. [...] You can only see one of them at a time. They sort of swap back and forth.
I'll try to rustle them out of hiding.
I didn't respond to you the first time because you were being condescending.

Generally if you tell someone not to do something and they say "I'm fine" they want you to stop telling them not to do that.

Talk about it whenever you want. My answer's not going to change. I appreciate the help and insight you're giving me and you can offer me advice if you want to, but I'm not under any obligation to follow that advice.
