That's it! Swearing without being really caught out. Anyone questions it? They're just letters, they can't prove shit.
[He's PROUD to be a terrible influence.]
I'm not, no. I like to have a little more faith in people. It's... not a popular opinion these days, honestly. Being suspicious and looking out for yourself is seen as a better survival tactic, but I can help it. I still think humanity deserves a shot at doing this shit together.
Yeah, exactly. They've been hurt pretty bad and wham bam up go those walls to prevent themselves from being hurt again.
[ Look, she might not be one for swearing, but she can certainly appreciate the ingenuity of it. She's still a Ravenclaw after all, aka a nerd. ]
But hasn't this been going on in your world for a long time now? I have to say, it does speak a good deal about your character if you've been like this all that time. It's very admirable, Louis.

I suppose in a way you can't blame him. None of us wants to hurt, do we? But I suppose, from experience, it just requires a little extra patience.
i mean i guess? i don't think we should really be handing out awards here for not being an asshole seems kinda depressing if you think about it for too long
[She's a good egg and he appreciates her a lot!]
nope! and i've got a sledgehammer made of love and friendship ain't no one can stand that
Well, no. You have a good point there. But look at it this way. If it's considered usual to not be kind to others? If it's far easier to be a horrible person rather than a kind one? You're going against the odds of what's expected. Of what's easier.
You don't have to be kind, but you are. That's what makes it more poignant, you know?
.... Do you actually have a sledgehammer made of love and friendship? Considering it's Deerington, after all.
[ Look, nothing's impossible here. But yeah, they're definite in danger. FROM LOVE. ]
i guess? i don't know i just don't think it costs anything to be a decent person, you know? it kinda bugs me that the world doesn't see it that way either
for sure not my world anyway my world is a festering shithole where most people are out for themselves and i just miss kindness honestly
[The world changed and even though the old one was broken too, he's not sure if the new one is any better.]

I guess you've got a point on that one.

Those walls can't stay up forever.
