What do you all think of the term, "an eye for an eye"?

It may not hurt on the outside. But it hides in your heart, and hurts you later.

[Therefore, it doesn't effect me. Somehow. Childlike invincibility.]

Half a heart still beats, as much as a vessel still feels.

[This one takes a few minutes...]

I can't help but worry about my friends... so I guess it would hurt me.

[And so does his own response.]

[But the next one follows shortly, like an afterthought.]

You worried about me and helped me. And I want to do the same for you. I like talking to you, because you make me see a side of things I hadn't thought about before.

We are friends.

[If only she could see the look on his face; well, the range of looks. Feelings are honestly so foreign and he still doesn't understand them, but this ... just the words, just looking at them makes his chest feel warm.

It's embarrassing, even though no one can see him and no one is around, and he was actually feeling cold up until a few moments ago. The warm was creeping through and it took a long time for him to respond, simply... without words.]

[Actually, it's a bit frightening. There is a bond and he doesn't want to smash it, like he knows he would have done in the past. And all it's doing is leaving him open, but that little bit of warmth is... nice.]

That's why I don't mind if worrying hurts me a little. Friends smile a lot more after that.

I will still be here after you take that eye you want back... even if I don't think it will help. Trusting is what counts!

[His fingers typed it out and sent before he realized how earnest it sounded.]

Yes.

[It was a small answer... but no more words were needed to say what she wanted.]

[It's almost a shame she can't see how much he's struggling with this warm feeling.]

I'd never break my word!

[And just the smallest bit of who he used to be sinks through;]

You're welcome, you're welcome! Have a good night, Vanitas!
