...I can't promise that, just by nature of the thing - and here's why, before you get all up in arms at me.
[That last part is quickly-said, just because he is usually at self-awareness zero but today he's willing to try to be...slightly...less that, maybe. Who knows.]
If I come after anyone in this building, it's not going to be because I have some sort of - I don't know. What do you think I have going on, some sort of insatiable bloodlust? Anyway, I can guarantee you that my issues are nowhere near anything like that. There are a lot of them, but I'm not...I'm not Kira, I don't need to kill people to live my life. We've already verified that I'm a sick fuck and I like to? But I don't need to.
So if I'm coming after anyone, it's because something happened or went wrong in my head hard enough to make me want to try to win this thing. And if I try to win, I'm also going to be going after those people you care about and trying to get them killed.
If you want me to promise not to touch your people, I'm also having to promise not to touch you. Which I can do, sure. I'm not going to try to play the Wordsmith's game, so that much is easy for me. I'm not going to target anybody here.
[...]
But really, if you don't want anyone hurting the people you care about, don't do stuff that's going to get you killed. I'm pissed off at Kira for a lot of reasons, and one of them is that he was stupid enough to try to pull something like that in the first place instead of just sitting down and waiting it out.
