I think he might eventually, but I'm not afraid of it.

Pitch teaches me shit. A lot of shit.

[combatking]

Hmm.. well hopefully it'll be later than sooner if ever. It sounds like he kinda took the roleve a parent to put it in my races terms.

[dicey]

Don't tell him that.

[combatking]

Don't worry, I won't. [Though there could be a chance in all the never that they talk to eachother.] I don't want to get you in trouble!

[dicey]

Thanks.

I don't know how I feel about this.

[combatking]

It seems really confusing..

[dicey]

It is! The only kind of love trolls have is romantic love, but I know that's not it. But I still feel like I kind of love him, I think.

[combatking]

Well.. you can borrow someve the loves from my race if you want. We've got romantic love, familial love, friendly love, brothers-in-arms love... there's alotta them. It's confusing, but you get the hang of it.

[dicey]

Isn't friendly love just a euphemism for really liking someone? There's a big difference between "You're awesome, I love you!" and "I seriously love you".

[combatking]

Well kindve. You can love a friend an' want to be around them constantly without wanting a romantic entanglement with 'em.

[dicey]

And it can be a serious love?

[combatking]

Yea, I think so. There's this trio in the Garden, who.. [Followed their friend into the mouth of hell when he became the enemy Sorceress' Knight..] well.. anyway they were notorious for alotta things, but no matter where one went, the other two followed. An' when their friend became public enemy number 1, they didn't abandon him, they went straight over an' continued to protect eachother. It wasn't about sides or anything, it was because they really care a lot about eachother, even with all their faults. Raijin straight up told us that. [Raijin, Fujin an' Seifer really were somethin' else.]

[dicey]

Are you sure they weren't a thing?

[combatking]

Yep. Pretty sure they weren't a thing. Their friend had a total romantic attachment to the Sorceress Adel. Well.. I think it was more've a romantic attachment to having a romantic attachment to a Sorceress.. if that makes any sense.. anyway, yeaaa.. friends can have a pretty serious love for eachother without the kissing an' stuff.

[dicey]

But is romance still more? Is family still more?

[combatking]

What do you mean by more? They're different types, so while people'll feel different levels of 'em, theyre each on a different sortve tier.. like different typesa fruit, I guess.

[dicey]

But one's top-tier, right?

[combatking]

I guess it depends on the person. Some people value each one more. Like oneve my Cell, Irvine, definitely values romantic love more, an' then Selphie seems to really value friendship. You put the importance yourself.

[dicey]

I bet Selphie would feel different if they started dating someone.

[combatking]

Irvines not dating anyone either. But yea, people change it all the time.

[dicey]

What a pain.

... But. Yeah. I never thought I'd love anyone in a non-romantic way.

[combatking]

Well it doesn't sound like it's part of your culture from what i've heard so far, y'know?

[dicey]

Then why am I feeling it! Do you think maybe it's fake and imaginary? Maybe I'm hanging around humans so much that I'm hallucinating that I have their feelings.

[combatking]

I... don't think that's it. I meant it's not part as in you're raised different, an' everythings classed differently. But like.. ah man I'm not sure how to explain what I'm sayin'. ..uhh.. you can feel or see or hear things without having been exposed to 'em before, y'know? Like uhh.. [He thinks for a moment, trying to figure out a good way to explain it..] Sorceresses! Our friend Rinoa had heard of the whole Sorceress thing, but one day when she woke up AS one, she was super confused, but the thing is that the potential to BE a Sorceress was in her, just.. you know.. she never really was exposed to it exactly..

[dicey]

You really think that's it?
