If that happens, I'll be sure to tell them I don't appreciate what they've done and insist that they apologize.

[Ion can give a very stern lecture when he wants to.]

But something mean will still happen to you... Oh! You should let me know, so I can look to see if there's anything hiding behind you again.

[ Arietta I'm pretty sure that's not how that works-- ]

I think that sounds like a wonderful idea. [Shush it's totally how it works now!!]

I'm sure with you looking out for me, I won't have to worry about having a prank like this pulled on me again.

Do you think someone else is going to try, too? You said more people might...

No, I don't think I'll have to worry about anyone else doing something like this. Otherwise I wouldn't be as sure as I am about who may have done this in the first place.

Of course, I'll need to ask them myself and give them a chance to apologize before doing anything else.

What if they don't apologize? [ Can she beat them up then? ]

Oh, I don't think that will be an issue.

[Between Nephry and Anise, if he did try something worse, no doubt one of them would eventually force him to apologize -- even if only in his own way.]

I'm sure if it were one of my friends doing it, they'd apologize if they knew they really upset me. Though they'd have to do more than put a sign on my back to do that.

Maybe they're not really your friend.

[ She just wants to be thrown a bone here, Ion, don't mind her too much. ]

[She's not going to get one in this case, it seems.]

Oh, I'm sure that's not the case at all. [...you know, mostly sure.] I don't think they would have done this at all if we weren't friends -- they know I wouldn't be upset about it because we're friends.

... You're too nice sometimes, Ion. If it happened to me, I'd be really mad.

[ You should only be nice to her. Those were the good days. 8( ]

You wouldn't be the first person to tell me that. [It's probably his one biggest fault -- you know, next to the whole painfully-too-trusting thing.]

I suppose I don't see it as something worth being upset about. It didn't cause any real harm, and I'm sure there was no malicious intent involved.

What if it did? I can't forgive anyone who would hurt you, Ion.

[ Self totally exempt oops ]

[Oh yes, he's aware of that.]

...if it was an accident and they felt remorse for what they did, then I would forgive them for it. Even if it had been malicious, if they apologized, I would see no reason not to forgive them.

Can you really get them to apologize?

[ After all, apologizing is hard! ]

Well, that would depend on them. If they didn't want my forgiveness, then they wouldn't apologize in the first place.

But sometimes it can be difficult for people to apologize. It can take a lot of courage for someone to face their own mistakes. So the least I can do is accept that apology when they give it.

So what if they don't...

Then I would be patient, and wait until they do. I'm sure they would be able to find it in themselves to apologize if they truly wished to make up for what they did.

But what if they don't!

[Arietta if you're waiting for the answer "then I'd let you go maul them for me" to come up, you're gonna be waiting awhile.]

Well... if they still didn't apologize after all that, it wouldn't be very nice of them, would it?

[ SHE CAN BE PATIENT ]

It wouldn't! It would be really mean.

But I can't think of anyone I would consider a friend who would do something like that. And if they weren't my friend, it wouldn't have been a harmless prank, like this one.

But...!

[ Give her a second, Ion. She can defeat your logic and get you to ask her to go fight someone for you!

... Possibly. ]

I still think they shouldn't have done it at all.

No, perhaps they shouldn't have. But I don't think there's any point in worrying about it anymore.

[Especially since there's no hope of convincing Arietta it wasn't a big deal anyway...]

... Can I hurt them if they do it again?

[ But she won't try to do it now. Look Ion, victory! ]

[He's not outright saying no. But only because he knows she won't learn anything if he does that.]

...if you hurt them, what do you think would happen? What if they came back and tried to hurt you?
