If you are speaking of my instruction, the point was to demonstrate the folly, the irrationality, of hatred. You are aware of this. You aided me in the speech.

Well, of that I understand... I wouldn't say I exactly aided in the colloquial part of it, but as I had said, I did lend my aid. That doesn't necessarily mean I'm exactly... blind, Cyrus.

You knew of the subject matter. You knew my intention to pull examples from those present.

...I'm not in the position to question your methods and reasoning, but are you sure you should have done it the way you did? I think I might have...

...Nothing. Never mind.

I'm pretty sure I'm not the wisest acre around, but I don't think you should force yourself if you don't want to.

So you didn't do as what you promised and people didn't expected you as what they believe, it's no big deal, it's not the end of the world. They'd eventually accept it.

I'm not so certain about that. Sure, some people wouldn't have a difficult time getting past it, but I imagine holding grudges is a very human thing to do. Lots of people likely do it, even if they claim they don't. In the end, I think I'd feel bad if I didn't fulfill things that I said I would.

It is, and sometimes you'll still feel guilty no matter what choice you pick. Because there's always someone whose gonna hate you, but at the same time, there's always someone who'll like you too.

You don't think it's possible for me to make it so people don't hate me?

...I... suppose logically that's true. I'd still like to avoid it, though.

He's not mean, per se. He's just... misunderstood. I'll apologise on his behalf.

What class is this? The school teaches so many different topics that it's close to impossible for me to take all of them at once...

Oh... I'm not actually in the class. I assist the professor. It's the ethics class, though. There's a lot of philosophy spoken of and different various things that impact the world.

I see... I heard some things about the ethics class teacher from some people before, so I wasn't really up for attending that class... But the topic looks like it'd have a lot of disagreeing between people, especially in a school with people from so many different places like here. I remember having an argument with some weird guy who thought Pokéballs were horrible

The topics aren't bad ones. He comes up with some really great things to discuss based on perspective and personal interpretation. The instructor's not too terribly bad either. I feel like he's really misunderstood, though.

I wouldn't let it bother you. He always brings up awkward stuff that folks don't really like talking about much. Whether that's got anything to do with ethics, I dunno. But it's interesting and makes you think if nothing else.

You OK?

I guess I am. I don't know, really. I wish I could say without uncertainty that I am, Knuckles. I just... feel apprehensive, I suppose. It's like a situation where you know you're in trouble and you'd be better off just leaving, but you don't for whatever reason. I suppose I deserve anything that comes my way.

I can't help feeling like I'm missing something. What happened in class that's got you so on edge, buddy?

You know you can tell me, right? I'll do what I can to help. And I can do a whole lot, you know!

It was just something that came up. I shouldn't be so odd about it. He was doing what he was supposed to be doing, and so was I. As long as no one's hurt, that's really all that matters. I generally don't believe in prying into one's private moments, so I try not to...

Sometimes it's necessary, though.
