    Yeah, but...

    When law enforcement went in where we used to live, it was hardly ever to help.

    *sighs* Well... I feel you there. I got my first friends at, well, age fifty thousand, thereabouts. As in, this year.

    But I think being genuinely adored is pretty nice.
    So... he'd prefer what I do with Pap and Sunshine, how I fault Pap for his innocence and tell them that his beautiful dreams won't actually work out? And how I exploded on Sunshine 'cause I misunderstood something Ford said and thought he'd hurt me? He'd prefer that?
    Well, then... honesty can suck my dick. *sticks his tongue out playfully*

    Alternia got subspace tech, sylladexes for regular item shenanigans, and specialised strife specibi for quickdraw and combat purposes. No troll is ever unarmed.

    ... Considering what our Empress gets up to, if there's anyone who's managed to weaponise kindness, it's her. Regarding Norm... Trying to get the emotional intimacy thing into his grey cerebral matter is like rolling a boulder up a hill.

    Not to help you. Probably were a lot of other people thought they were helpin' them a whole lot. Like I said: risk and reward. If you don't get food, you'll die - but tomorrow, maybe. If you steal, some places that means a death sentence - and they're good at catchin' ya, too.

    You'll have better luck hitting on honesty than Sev, at least.

    Some of them were good people! But. Not enough.

    Being adored can be... a thing. A good thing. But, as you asked-

    ...yyyyes?
    I vastly prefer people who are willing to call me on my bullshit. I'm fully capable of fighting back if I think they're being wrong or unfair. I'm not always good at stopping myself from doing the Grand But Ultimately Terrible Idea.

    Kill them with kindness? That is delightfully fucked up and I kinda love the marketing that must've went into that.

    *fistbump of fuck da police sympathy* I know that feel, bro

    He's not kidding @Norm the Genie . Not doing the Dramatic Thing is not something that comes with the Human 2.0 feature pack, and he's pretty resilient to all patch attempts so far. :/

    Well... I'm pretty new to it, you know...
    *sighs* So, you're saying I'd have better luck with an abstract concept than an actual living, breathing person?

    Fuck. I'm owned.
    Yeah. But isn't it nice to just relax and let yourself be adored? Step away from the bullshit and the criticism and everything you need to do, and just be somewhere warm and soft and loved?

    No. I mean, I have exploded on Ford when I was really, really angry, but that's not what I meant. I'm talking about how Ford is incredibly exasperating sometimes and yet it only makes me love him more because he needs me and I need him. Gentle exasperation can be a deeper expression of love than flattery or endearments, because it carries the meaning that you know everything that is messed up about someone and you love them anyway, because they're them and they wouldn't be them if they weren't messed up.

    I've never met a cop worth liking. Their existence in theory is rather cold comfort to the mechs resorting to siphoning out of fear of retribution, and even that rarely saved them.

    No. That sounds fucking terrifying, honestly.

    ...it's entirely possible that I have Issues.

    Dude, you're getting lucky with at least two actual living breathing people last I counted. It's not like you're not getting action and affection. Sometimes you get turned down, and it blows, but you'll get past it. And Sev's not being a dick about it, at least, which might make it harder to get over him, but will probably do less damage in the long run.

    And maybe you haven't gotten the chance to see it yet, but he's totally got it in him. From talking to the trolls, I don't think he's had a relationship that wasn't black quadrant in his life, for real. In case that helps you understand.

    When someone very clearly knows everything that's wrong with you and still adores you, you can trust that.

    Blind adoration is terrifying. You have to live up to it. You wonder whether they'll still like you when they find out what a fuckup you are. And you can't rely on them to stop you if you're heading for the light at the end of a tunnel and they see that it's really a train.

    That is surprisingly poetic and just made me realize something absolutely disgusting about myself, so thank you for that.

    I can confirm blind adoration is uncomfortable for everyone involved though. Hemce the hints to maybe tone it down.
