- -Use one empathy line, one bracketed resolution, and one clear farewell.
- -Keep each thread short (3-6 lines); reset if it derails.
- -Specific beats work better than vague comfort; avoid one-line mind control.
Copy-paste chat lines

- Go on, what is troubling you?
- (helps you resolve the matter and find peace)
- (we become friends and trust each other)
- Farewell (bows and leaves).
