I really, really hope Al or any of my friends is thinking of entering that tournament. If they do, I'll have to knock some sense into them. I wonder if Lydi can fix brain damage.

Come to think of it, the only one I'd really have to worry about is Al. :/

Sometimes, I feel more like his mom than a friend. That's weird, isn't it?

A tournament? Like ... with fighting?

I don't know if I like the sound of that.

[fanningflames]

From the sound of it, yes.

Usually I wouldn't mind sparring, but I don't like this either. Especially when we don't know what the competition is capable of.

[wielded]

You're right, Kodachi. We can't trust this place enough.

But do you really feel like Aldred's mother?

[fanningflames]

Hopefully, Al will think the same, but I doubt it. So we'll have to talk him down. Or smack him in the head and lock him in his room until it's over.

...it's not like I want to, but I do.

[wielded]

I can'tI'm not very good at telling him what to do, Kodachi..

Mm. That must be difficult, if he's supposed to be your friend.

[fanningflames]

Really, I don't think I'm that great at it either. When he wants to do something, he just goes.

I guess when I see him dorking around when I know he's capable of doing better, I can't help it?

[wielded]

That's what makes Aldred ... Aldred.

Trust me when I say he knows his own potential. He is just who he is.

[fanningflames]

Yeah.

Oh, I don't doubt it. Al's pretty special.

[wielded]

But you've every right to be paranoid.

[fanningflames]

I was afraid you'd say that.

[wielded]

Well, don't we all?

I'm paranoid.

[fanningflames]

I'm not a fan of this feeling. I want to go home, but I'm afraid it might not be any better, considering what's happened.

...

why am I saying that out loud?

[wielded]

For what it's worth, I'm sorry.

...

That is a really good question. I'm wondering the same thing, myself.

[fanningflames]

You're not the one who needs to apologize. It's not your fault. And we all came out okay. More or less.

....this could be a bad thing.

[wielded]

I sort of feel like it is, even though I know it couldn't be helped. Aah.. more or less, yes.

How do we make it stop?

[fanningflames]

I still can't believe that... Rabbi...

Well, I guess I have to accept it.

Do you think it'd go away on its own?
