...being bound means that your lives are also bound. So. If someone dies...their partner will die, too. But with this ability you can stop that and bind them to someone else.
Ow! [The one time he actually sounds like a 16 year old boy. He rubs his arm on reflex.] I'm not! You told me to be straightforward with you and I'm trying.
I wasn't lying! Why does everyone keep saying that!? [UGH!!!] Lune and I got here first, you were brought in by the universe after that, and it wasn't with the intention of people dying. But we don't know how the darkness is going to spread and change now that everyone's here.
It's a "just in case." [Don't shoot the messenger :(]
No, I've been saying the same thing. [Frowning. Not that she can see it.] ...I want to be patient for Lune because being mad about it isn't gonna make this any easier for anybody, but the universe hasn't been telling us much of anything for a while now. We just keep asking.
[There's a nod though.] Nobody's going to die if I can help it. [...] That's not what you're here for. We can't let it happen.
I'm not here to ask for anybody's forgiveness. But I'll do my job as best as I can until it's done, even if I don't have the answers and can't stop things. I hope you'll understand that.
The job is to guide you to the right answer without interfering. For us, it's a balance, too. Lune and I have our own wishes for the universe and how to control the darkness, but the universe has told us we can't directly change anything that you choose to do.
[...] Lune and I were called here, and we volunteered to stay behind. But we're still learning. To both of us, I think, a mission must be completed no matter what.
All we can do is hope that everyone here finds the best solution, and that things don't get worse.
Everything I'm telling you is what I know. And Lune and I have an agreement to tell you all what we learn as soon as we learn it. It's the best way we can help you now.
I don't want anyone to die. Neither does Lune. Why would we?
Just because you actively don't want anyone to die doesn't mean that you won't turn a blind eye when it happens for the sake of some greater goal or convenience.
[she's seen it happen - from her own father at that.
prioritizing protection is something that has to be consciously done]

Don't mess with me.

Everything is conflicting with each other - you can't blame us for thinking that something must be wrong in the delivery!
[she dOESN'T LIKE IT]
... whatever. Fine. I'll hold onto it then - but you have to make sure no one dies so I don't have to use it.

That's right. You can't.
I won't forgive you if people get hurt here.
[arguable. she can forgive a lot, depending on the circumstances, despite all her fuss]

What is that job?
To oversee all of us?
And what does that job mean to you?

.... I don't want things to get worse, and this isn't my home, but I also can't leave people behind if something could be going wrong.
If you need help... be clear about it, and I'll give you what you need.
But you better not be tricking us.
