[He shrugs] And even if you liked me enough to sit out here braiding daisy chains, at the end of the day?
[he smiles, points at him like he'd love to tap him on the nose if he was close enough] You'd still side with those who want to kill me. I'm happy with you not liking me. It keeps you honest. I mean, I have plenty of high-minded throat-slitters in my own family, Al, why would I want you?
Rhode. And it was for a purpose. It's not like we just decided to do it for fun. I don't blame you for hating her for it, but don't pretend there wasn't a reason for it.
According to who? You? You're so afraid of making things worse that you'll tolerate anything that anyone does to you. Sorry, Al, but I just can't live by those standards.

It's a little more important to me than you having all your Littlest Pet Shop animals in a row.

Date: 2012-06-01 11:15 pm (UTC)[There's no harm talking about Rhode. She's not here, there's literally nothing Al can do with the information.]
It's a 'you don't remember me, but I remember you' gift. For whenever we break out of this cage, and I go find my sister.

[Offline]
Date: 2012-06-01 11:20 pm (UTC)[He says it quietly. Yes, a few weeks ago he would have tried to barter or bribe, but this is easier and he's tired of wasting his time.
Besides, there is no cow, so he's not going to get his feathers ruffled over this.]

Date: 2012-06-01 11:42 pm (UTC)[Al just looks... tired.]
No matter what values you have, I can't work past that one.

Michael. The only justification he has.
No one will ever, ever convince him it's not good enough.]

Date: 2012-06-02 03:19 am (UTC)Explain to me. Please. What hurting Negi had to do with saving your brother.

What, did you think I was just giving them a surprise mud bath?
