[Lea's sitting on the couch in his apartment, looking thoughtful. His Growlithe, Fireball, is laying next to him with his head in Lea's lap, and Lea idly scratches the Pokémon's ears as he talks.]
...What kinds of things do people do when they're feeling down or lonely? Sparring is a good distraction for awhile, but that only goes so far, so I'm looking for ideas.

[He learned the hard way. Gee Ted, ya think?]
The effectiveness of that remedy depends on whether you love wisdom as, say, a Greek might. Contemplating things of divinity and the promise of future happiness ought to do better than, say, one like Plutarch or Aurelius.

Re: Text
[That makes a bit more sense, but not a whole lot. At least it's enough for Lea to answer promptly.]
Ah, OK. I'll probably take a pass on those books though; they all sound pretty academic, and as any of my teachers would tell you, academics were never really my strong suit.
