I don't care! You're not the fucking exception to what they said regardless of who you are! You can't get it through by yourself either! And what the other Attendants meant was with other people! Not just yourself, and every other facet of yourself! Besides, you're interchangeable because you're a Shadow, aren't you? You're still a part of Akira!

[ Terry breathes in, because holy shit. ]

But fine! Whatever! And why the fuck is Akira so hung up on being such a good person?! I didn't treat Akira any differently after the fight with the Daitengu or when we fucking argued or fought. You're just like any other person! You don't have to constantly try to be a good person!

[ Then Terry realizes something. ]

... That's why you kept screaming at me, didn't you? You kept wanting to be the paragon of a good person so when I acted out, you were there to "be the good person". Just be yourself! I told Kido the same thing when she was having trouble about being a leader! You want to be a role model or some shit?! Stop holding yourself to some standards that nobody fucking cares about but you! Do you believe that you're that fucking deprived?! BOTH OF YOU!!
