...Yeah. Stuff he's said before, it makes a lot more sense now. Why he worried about keeping up, why it was always about...usefulness. Because you keep useful things as long as they're useful, and that's something he did know how to do.
[It had to be you. Your Stand was the only one that could've forced his hand, it had to b—
He doesn't even notice he's slowing down until he's a half-step away from being at a halt, momentarily lost in thought because there's one natural place that logic like that leads, one very obvious connection that puts together Point A and Point B — and he knows there are other points between them, vital ones, things that make a difference, but for a moment there's only two, and the line that connects them is it was how he could be useful.
That really isn't right, is it.
It's just not right. "Useful" isn't enough, it isn't nearly enough.
And he still doesn't know how it is he's supposed to go about this whole...everything, whatever this is, what he's asked for this extra time to consider, but there's one thing he's certain about now, and it's that if he accomplishes nothing else in his life, he's damn well going to convince Kakyoin that what he is, what he means, is worlds above and beyond "useful".]
So I need to tell him, flat-out, what it takes to keep me. He needs to understand it, or he'll be too worried about losing it to just accept it.
