... This what they call a two nickel situation?

[ jeez, talk about funny. not haha funny, just... funny. anna glances away a moment, then back to lessing. ]

There's someone else here who's got some pretty similar circumstances to you, but they're not really interested in the wish, I think -- it definitely can't hurt to try, and even if it doesn't like, work out the way you want it to, maybe the wish'll give you something useful to crack that cold case? Sorry about your friend though, dude.
