(Good to hear that you aren't trying to fight me anymore.)

(While we may not have the same overall goals, I do want to make sure that you are alive and healthy.)

(I'm still not happy about you existing, and would rather not hear you ever. But I have to accept that this is how things are now)

Feeling that Izaya had stopped struggling, Roth released his grip.

"You think that you are the only one that has faced difficulty because of their powers? You think that it is some great thing to be alone? I have watched friends die a hundred, hundred times, over and over again, while I had to search the Timestream for the one way, the one future in which they survived. And once I had, once I had charted a course, they would remember nothing. Who would believe me? Who would believe me if I told them I had witnessed them die in a thousand different ways, each more gruesome than the last? They do not remember them. Only I remember them, only I have witnessed them, and the only constant, the only thing that is always the same, is the questioning look on their faces as they gaze at me with dying eyes. 'Why? Why didn't you stop it? Why didn't you save me?'," Roth said sadly. "That is my burden to bear. Mine alone. So believe me when I say that I know perfectly well that these powers are just as much of a curse as they are a blessing."

"But cousin, understand, I am not trying to make you like me," he said, grabbing him by the shoulders and turning him around. Roth looked at him in the face with kind eyes. "I am trying to help you be a better man. My Master of Drills told me, he said, A man must be many things, Roth. He must be swift as the coursing river. He must possess all the force of a great typhoon, and all the strength of a raging fire. A man must by mysterious, like unto the dark side of the moon. But a man must also be tranquil as the forest, though a fire burns within! That is the difference between a man and a monster, Roth. Both possess great strength and swiftness, both are mysterious and forceful, but while a monster rages and rampages, a man retains control," he said. As he finished, his eyes were slightly wet.

"You must determine what it means to be a man to you. To me, it is to be a fortress, and though I have, perhaps, walled myself off, every fortress has a gate," he said. "Stand up for yourself! Do not hide behind others! Do not let the wicked words of your enemies enrage and upset you! Be a man!," he said, trying to be inspiring.

"Now, I believe that is enough of a lesson for today. Let's get things back to how they were," he said, waving a hand over Izaya as his wounds and injuries simply disappeared.

"There, it's like you were never hurt at all. Because...you weren't," he grinned.

Izaya smiled at his cousin "You're right, and I'm sorry that I didn't think about what it was like for you"

He placed a hand on his shoulder "I'll make sure to do my best to make sure you don't have to do that for me. I'll fight tooth and nail to stay alive....I have family...I really was dumb back there"

"I have all this anger inside of me, I just....I can channel it in a fight. I can use it to help us win! But....You're right. I need to work on still being in control when I do that. The other me is still me. I have to accept that"

When Ayazi spoke, Izaya frowned "It seems something has made it into town. Want to help me take care of it?"

"There is no need to apologize. After all, I was insulting you repeatedly, hah," he said with a grin. "I am glad to know that some of what I said got through to you. Just make sure that Little Devil doesn't get the better of you," he finished with a laugh.

"But, yes, I would gladly accompany you. Give me a moment to retrieve my armor," Roth left, and a moment later he returned, healed and fully clad in his battle plate, cloak clasped around his neck, shield slung over his back, and sword sheathed on his hip.

"I was made to put on my armor and take it off again several times a day for weeks on end, so that I might be able to swiftly garb myself for battle," he said with a grin. He prided himself on how little time it took for him to prepare. "Now, let us go and see what dares trespass so close to these headquarters," he said, whistling for Hogun. The large Arcanine hopped up, padding over to him.

"Lead on, cousin."
