I'm glad we are on the same page in that regard, then. What you think of me is your business and not something I'd care to change, even if I could, because I have my reasons.

If you're asking why I chose you, it's because you are far more closed off than most of your friends back at home. Shrouded in mystery and intrigue with a desire to one day be vulnerable around the people you want to trust... And who better than Bennett to draw that out of you? Someone who doesn't know you or what you've been through, someone so unspeakably earnest. It is quite an interesting matchup, that's for sure.

Of course. It would be a waste of time to attempt to change either of our minds.

I suppose that makes sense. Had you brought someone like Yamada Ichiro or Dice here, I imagine they would take this all in stride. Had I been in your position, I imagine I would choose someone like myself. And as for Bennett... I won't deny that it has been quite the match.

For curiosity's sake, if I may ask, were there any others you considered bringing here?

[instructus]

From your world? Doppo Kannonzaka, perhaps. Maybe even Samatoki Aohitsugi, but admittedly, he'd be too much of a nightmare.

[catarou]

Fascinating.

On the contrary, I'd quite like to see Mr. Hardcore here. He would make things interesting, you know. And isn't it a good thing to add in an unpredictable variable? A wildcard, so to speak.

[instructus]

You make a fair point, but I think we have a fair amount of wildcards in this group as is.
