A Question of Expansion

Hey, gang(s).
There's been all sorts of trouble with Auroch and I here lately, and for that I once again do apologize. But I think I may be making some sort of progress. We've spent the last few days in each other's company almost exclusively, and I've been talking with him at length. It's come down to this:
Begrudgingly, he said he would consider actually speaking like a civil human being about his experiences and thoughts (not "feelings" -- he really didn't like that word), but admitted to being wary of what others thought of him and how they would respond. It's not normal insecurity for him -- he just has no desire to reveal information about himself if he's to be replied to in a way that would belittle him.
His past, his life, especially before this body, is very important to him. And since I think it would benefit his attitude to interact sociall with other beings, he's agreed. That, and I have agreed that if he does this, I owe him something he's been aching for: more control, more freedom, and more fronting.
Anyone think this is a good idea?
