[ the answer is yes rattles claude upside down

I suppose I can't say much about that without sounding like a hypocrite. [ ... ] There isn't a right way to do it, other than letting yourself feel it.

[midway]

Letting yourself feel it, huh? Do you do that often?

[ Turning it around. ]

[fried]

[ makes a face. ]

... No, but I did not advertise myself as a role model.

[midway]

Why? What's your excuse?

[fried]

I'm not very capable of feeling anything anymore.

[midway]

What do you mean?

[fried]

Exactly what it sounds like. [ ... ] One morning during the war I woke up, and found I had nothing left.

So all that fussing and worrying over us is an act?

[fried]

No. I care about all of you.

Think of it as becoming more and more immune to spice. It takes more of it to slow me down.

[midway]

Slowing you down in this instance meaning...? Being overcome with emotion?

[fried]

Something like that, yes.

[ like building up an immunity to feeling, only he just shuts down if he feels too much. wow this is just scien, what a terrifying realization ]
