I'm not going to cheat on him. Not with Kid, not with Shirou. I would never cheat on him, even with a person I loved, because I also love him and you don't cheat on people you love.

But apparently, you can't love two or three or four people equally! You can only love one the most. And of course that person isn't the one you're dating. You're being disloyal just by dating anyone at all.

And if you love two people, you're fated to cheat on them. There's no such thing as self control! If you have to love more than one person, you might as well just never date anyone for your entire life to keep yourself from harming them! Who cares if you're unloved forever, if they're safe from you?

In fact, why don't you just go ahead and DIE FOR THEM?! It's the only way to prove that your love isn't just a selfish emotion, it's the only way to date them and not eventually betray them! Go ahead! I know I would!

'Take what you want from me, strip me bare, send me into certain death.' If you can't even respect my loyalty, which is the entirety of my being, how can you respect me at all?!

((Hakuba really made Issei flip out with his assertion that Issei couldn't love two people at the same time. Replies will be voice, he's not well enough to type correctly.))

...Oh.

That's what's going on.

How do you know you really love them both?

I'd die for the both of them.

Meaning you'd leave one for the other. I don't think it can work that way.

Not you as well... please, I don't want anyone else to tell me I'm a liar...

I'm not against you, Issei. I've been there, sort of.

I can do it. If anyone here can manage loving more than one person, I can.

Who do you know that has?

[Silence for a bit.]

...Shirou was in love with two people for a while, before one died?

Loved them how?

Romantically.

And you know that for sure?

Yes.

I don't think I'll question how you think you can do it because you think someone else has. And I probably don't have this right - I don't feel like you humans do - but this thing with loving other people... I don't think you can love more than one person that way. I sometimes get jealous when it comes to Ichigo, because he really cares about other people, but I know there's something different when it comes to me.

As for me... regardless of what you think, when you're in that kind of position, like it or not you end up choosing. Maybe it'll be different for you, but I really think you'll just end up hurting yourself trying to be loyal to both.

I would by far rather hurt myself being loyal than hurt them being disloyal.

That's not true!

What?

I don't hate Issei. I just don't think that you can love two person the *same* way.

I agree, mostly, but why is this making you so angry?

I don't want him saying those thing about me if they're not true.

He sounds pretty upset, did you threaten him or something?

No, why would I do that? We are friends. In fact, I told him to forget about it.

Then why's he upset? What's been going on?

I have no idea.
