[What's wrong, sinner? Wish to communicate with Gundam via telepathic amulet or messenger bird or even in person? Then come on over here and specify the format!]

Because everything I've heard and seen of you guys, I can't believe Junko didn't somehow manipulate and twist you into following her.

[ The chill can't get under his skin, because he won't allow it. Where the energy in Gundam's voice dims, Red's increases, the look of his face firming as well with his position. ]

The Gundam I've known since we've been together, the one I've been hanging out all day today with and let use my pokémon -- that's you. You've never lied and hid some side of you that enjoys going around murdering people. That part of your past... that's what you have to deal with. Anyone else can judge you how you want for it, but this is my decision.

The only reason I wanted to talk to you about it was so you knew. You don't have to tell me anything unless you want to. [ His hands lift off the wood, and he spreads them out a little. ] I don't want anything to change between us.

[Gundam pauses for a moment as he looks up at Red. And he considers the himself of the present... the he who is not that person. The chill starts to fade into warmth, the hint of a smile tugging at his cheeks. So, Red truly does accept him.]

...Very well. I will accept your conviction. ...No, I will respect it. The connection between us shall remain a constant! [Basically, nothing has to change.]

Thank you... Red.

[ Where there's only a hint of one on Gundam, a smile blooms upon Red's face in time with the short laugh that escapes him, something just so -- nice, and glad, to feel that tension leave. A tension he invited, but happy to see go all the same.

He approaches Gundam, and without any hesitation pats him on the shoulders in a gesture that's rather playful, matching the expression he looks up at the Ultimate Breeder with, but not before softening to something more genuine. ]

If things get hard, just remember... there's always more to you, and a lot you can do and achieve! That's what I believe!

And I wanna see it: everything you're capable of! -- That means that sleeping spell I showed you too!

[ Have you been practising!! ]

[hamnation]

[Gundam does tense up a bit at the pat on his shoulder, but he otherwise doesn't object, and luckily his barrier doesn't go up. Now he looks amused.]

Hmph... You take far too many risks for a mortal. But your devotion is noted.

[And the air around him feels warmer. He raises a hand.]

Fuhahaha! Do you wish for me to cast Hypnosis upon you? Should I unleash my true power, you would be locked in a nap that lasts for eons!
