[And that gets a laugh out of Sora.]

I think I can do that, too!

[devoutish]

And it'll distract you from coming after me, eh?

[He's actually mostly kidding here - he does see Sora as the type to 100% disapprove of his activities, but at this point he's pretty sure he doesn't take him seriously as a potential obstacle like he does Steve (and maybe Watson). Sorry, Sora.]

[seekthelight]

...Is there a reason I should be coming after you?

[He doesn't have his keyblade or magic. He's about as threatening as a kitten here, let's be honest.]

[devoutish]

Nah, mate, don't trouble yourself with it. Me and him, we're cut from the same sort of cloth, that's all - only him with a fair bit more denial of having anything good in his life.

[seekthelight]

That's not very reassuring, you know that right? [Royce did threaten to kill them.] Yeah he really doesn't like to see the good in anything does he?

[devoutish]

It was only a joke. I don't need your powers of friendship.

He's got his reasons. I'm not gonna tell 'em to you, even here in a place where it doesn't count for anything, but they're there.

[seekthelight]

Oh so you're one of those types too, huh?

I didn't expect you to tell me. I just don't see the point in pushing what good stuff you might have away.

[devoutish]

Which type would that be?

Well - I know a bit more about his life than you do, so I've got the context for it.

[seekthelight]

The type that don't think friendship means anything.

Bad things happen to everyone. Nothing is ever easy. But that's why it's important to hang onto the good things.

[devoutish]

Ah, nope. That's not me.

Listen, all right - don't make judgements if you don't know, yeah? And you do not know.

[seekthelight]

Great.

I'm not making judgments! He's the one that likes to judge people. All I'm saying is that every bad thing has something good that can help counter it.

[devoutish]

And that's not a statement of how you think he should handle his own fucking problems?

[seekthelight]

He makes them everyone else's problems by treating people like crap just because he can and because he feels justified in doing so. He's not handling them. He's just bottling them up and using it as an excuse to be mean.

So yeah, fine. It is a statement on how I think he should handle things because it'd be a lot better if he actually handled them instead of being a brat about it!

[devoutish]

Then you are completely free not to talk to the man, aren't you? Yeah.

[seekthelight]

He's the one that got in my face first!

[devoutish]

Did he?

[Okay, fine, Alfie's kind of been making assumptions about the situation.]

Well.

Then I expect you'll be leaving your judgements to that event and that event alone, won't you? How he handled that situation, not how he handles his situation in general.

[seekthelight]

[Sora huffs.]

If he stops acting like most people my age do, then yeah, I will.

[devoutish]

Lecture him all you want about how he acts. Words, actions, yeah; all of that's fair game. But stay out of telling him how he should think about his bad and his good. If he wants to bottle up even to the point that it's unwise, that's his own business.

That's fair, innit.

[seekthelight]

If he takes it out on other people, then it's not just his business. So as long as he doesn't do that? Then I'll leave him be.

[And insert innocent smile here.]

Maybe I just need to show him what it means to have a friend!

[devoutish]

I'm not sure you understand the difference between addressing actions and addressing the thoughts and feelings behind them, yeah? The first is yours to address if it's directed at you, and the second is not.

He will wipe the floor with you, kid.

[seekthelight]

I understand what you're saying. All I'm saying is that he has no right to take his anger out on other people just because he's emotionally stunted!

I've fought people a lot more threatening and dangerous than him and walked away from it.

[devoutish]

If you understand, then we won't have a problem, will we.

How do you know how dangerous he is?

[seekthelight]

Guess we won't.

Has he ever destroyed entire worlds and taken over people's bodies and used them as pawns in a huge war that's been going on for years?

[Dry tone is dry.]

[devoutish]

Nah, mate, I'd expect not. How do you fight somebody like that?

[seekthelight]

It's not easy, especially since he has the means to place parts of himself inside other people. He can be everywhere at once it seems like.
