[another moment of hesitation. A part of him wants to say something, having never met anyone else with that sort of evil mind lurking within before, and yet...]
Why do you want to know? You didn't have to tell me anything. You could have just avoided the subject altogether. Why didn't you? [he genuinely doesn't get it. That's what he's always done. Why would someone else be so forthright?]
Nothing. It's nothing. I was guessing and... You're the one who said everything to begin with! Who... who made me have to worry like that. [his voice grows in intensity, so confused at this point that all he can do is toss out blame] Everything that you said was all a lie, wasn't it! Just because someone says that it's true doesn't make it true! You and that... Almost losing everything... It doesn't have to take over. It can just stay away. There's no erosion or danger or anything like that!
That power... That damn power is useless! It's useless!
