I was the same way, back home. Before I got arrested I didn't have a lot of friends- I wasn't like, an outcast but I just kinda coasted through things. So the moment things went bad everyone ditched. And when I moved to Tokyo everyone assumed I was a criminal. I heard people talking all the time. That I was dangerous. That I did drugs or carried a knife... funny, all those things are true now, huh?

But I made some friends who were spat on too, and I was so scared I'd be alone again that I... just always told them what I thought they wanted to hear. Make it my job to fix all their problems. If I had his power I probably woulda ended up kinda like Yoshi. But when I came here... that kinda thing didn't work anymore- I almost got myself killed thinking like that. Really hurt some people I cared about. Even now I... still tend to think like that.

As shitty as this world is, I can't say I hate that I came here. I've grown a lot. But have I grown enough that my living was worth what Sherlock went through? If he got deleted I don't know if I woulda been able to keep going...

[He shakes his head, not used to talking this much, especially about himself]

Sorry, I'm rambling. I guess all we can do is work together and stop it at the source.
