If someone wants to help with a plan, I'm not going to say no, but I just think it's better for everyone if it's a plan I can carry out myself. If there's a connection between my home and everyone else's, and things go wrong... I'm just trying to keep you all safe.
[he sounds honestly appreciative, and after a moment:]
Sometimes - we have to make the hard choice because it's better for everyone else. I really wish it could be different, though. I'd have liked to see you guys again after this is over.

You're not the first one to... I mean, other people have told me they think I'm being stupid about this already. But I can't lose anyone else.

I wish I could tell you that you should let us help, but... I don't know. It's hard to say.

But if we manage to find a way to safely eradicate that danger...

That's probably enough about me. What would you have wished for, if we did?
no subject
Oh... Probably for my hostage to be human.
no subject
Can I ask who they are?

Though I guess I just met the fake version of her? It's a little confusing.

Yeah. She has a way of getting things done. The Nightman would be begging for me to take her back.
no subject
Well, we'll just have to find a way to get you back to her soon so she can kick his butt.
