...this is the neatest thing I've ever seen. I want one for home so bad.

[He can't go to the Huntress with Greed's mess of an aura...and Blue Fish recently installed locks..]
Which ship are you on?

Yes, that'll work.
I'll be over in a little while.

[It doesn't take long to pick Mikleo up and they wait together for Allen, legs swinging as they sit on crates and discuss what Allen might need to talk to them about.]
You know him better than me, right? What do you think it is?
Action
There's still a lot I don't know about him. The same can be said of anyone else here, really. Malevolence, maybe?
[That's the only thing that comes to mind. Allen's reaction to Greed had been telling, and the man was practically soaked in it.]
Action
Hello Sorey, Mikleo [
Goofy]Thank you for seeing me. There was...something I wanted to clarify with you two.

[He crosses his arms.]
I've heard some rumours. Is it true that you two broke into a restaurant kitchen, harassed a cook until she got fired, and then attempted to exorcise her by throwing water at her?

[It’s actually kind of nice, being able fess up to something. Rose and the others were always covering for him and while he appreciated it (and needed it, honestly), he was beginning to feel the protection was a little too one-sided. He’s sheltered, but that doesn’t mean he can’t assume responsibility for his actions, right?]

[He holds up his hand]
Hold on-! I'm not here to punish you two! Nightingale is fine, if anything, she's happy for what you did. And I didn't see any damage in the restaurant-- though it wouldn't hurt if you two helped her find a new job.
[Just saying man.]
I just want to make sure you know that you can't go charging in every time you sense- what's your term for it? Malevolence?
no subject
Normally, we wouldn't have done that. But her level of malevolence was... alarming. We genuinely thought people were in danger.
[His brows furrow, giving Allen a pointed look.]
You recall when we were walking the other day and you reacted badly to the presence of my ship's captain? It was like that.
[Gut-wrenching, about-to-fall-over sort of malevolence just can't be ignored.]
no subject
[He crosses his arms]
But she's not the only person in the fleet that will have that kind of malevolence. There are some who have even more than her, but...would take even less kindly to being attacked.
[He glances at them]
The demons and their kind have been peaceful here. But there's no guarantee they'll stay peaceful if they feel threatened. I don't want the people of the fleet to get caught in the middle of a conflict like that.

And unless we're attacked first, we won't be purifying anyone by force.

[....Huh.]
[He tilts his head a little as he looks at the pair, his expression a bit quizzical. His gloved hand raises up to his chin to rub it a little as he thinks]
I must admit, I'm a little surprised... [This talk almost never goes this easily]
no subject
But are you sure you boys sure can accept that revised approach so easily?
"Only a fool would think things like that could be peaceful", "The only good person with high malevolence is a dead one", "I'll happily destroy every single one of them"....
No one would fault you if you truly felt that way somewhere in your heart. [You wouldn't be the first, or the last]
no subject
He still wishes there had been something he could have done for the Cardinal. Rose may have been the one to end her life, but if they'd just reached her sooner then maybe she wouldn't have been so far gone. He still can't believe that some people simply cannot be purified, not yet.
He wishes Lailah were here. She would be able to explain this so much better, would sound so much wiser than he. He'll just have to make do with his own clumsy words.]
Please don't misunderstand; a Shepard's duty is to purify malevolence, but never like that. I can't become a slave to my duty and sacrifice my own ideals for it. [He softens then, expression gentling into something more vulnerable as he unconsiously leans closer to Mikleo for support. This is a talk they've had many times before.] And I don't wanna hurt anybody.
no subject
He doesn't budge from his spot, allowing Sorey to lean on him as he pleases, and he straightens up as if to make himself taller, his body language visibly protective.]
The fact that you can say something like that shows how little you know of us, so I won't hold it against you. But if you're trying to provoke something, don't waste your time.

You can relax, Mikleo. I'm not trying to provoke. I was simply saying the reasons the words that are often said to me by people about this. I wanted to see if they spoke to you.
[It was a test, in other words. That's all it was. He gives a little laugh, almost out of disbelief]
I must say, you two really are quite the peculiar ones. [Though his tone is one closer to awe than actual insult.]
