She did say you were shy about it.

[ scoffs ]

Please. I've got to be one of the least shy people in this entire place. If I want something I just take it, and that includes people to entertain me.

Well, okay. So do you want a friend?

No. Are you friendship propositioning me?

I was, but I assume it's not a successful proposition.

Hey, we're still just getting to know each other! Didn't think I was that easy, did you?

Does it take a lot of getting to know each other to be friends?

Doesn't it? Unless you're Angel or something.

I wasn't sure if Angel was the standard.

She's definitely a special case. The norm is probably the middle ground between me and her?

So you're very difficult to be friends with?

Someone whose only interest is killing doesn't make great "friend" material, forrrr a variety of reasons!

[ he shrugs loosely. ]

According to some people, I've made friends here. And my interests aren't too far off.

What's that supposed to mean, "according to some people"? How do you see it?

I have some people I like spending time with more than others.

But do you care about what happens to them?

[ , ]

Is that a requirement?

Friendship's supposed to be some kind of attachment, isn't it? Not that I'm the expert here.

I don't really know. Different people have told me different things about that.

Eh, that makes sense. It's one of those things where the exact definition varies depending on the person, probably...

So in the end, I guess all that matters is if you think of other people as "friends." I don't.

Do you have a single friend by your own definition?

I just said that I don't.

I wanted to be sure. Does that make you unhappy?

Not at all. I don't need friends. The only thing in this world I can rely on is my own strength.

What about your own unit?
