... 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?

I'd be alright! As long as they stopped being mean to you.

But how do you know that would make them stop? What if it only encouraged them to come back and do something even worse? What if they wanted to take their revenge against you out on those around you instead?

[Sound familiar yet?]

... I wouldn't let them.

[ Ion stop that you're making her feel bad about wanting to protect you 8( ]

I know you would try, but even still, you can't predict what might happen. That's why you need to think about your actions and the consequences they might have before you do them.

[He smiles, setting a hand on her shoulder -- he doesn't want to sound like he's scolding her, after all. He's just trying to teach her something.]

You wouldn't want me worrying about you, would you?

[wildlittlegirl]

No!

[ OHGOSH NO NEVER D8 ]

You shouldn't have to worry about me. That's why I'm protecting you...

[ well theoretically ]

But if you're only protecting me, who's going to protect you? You're my friend, and it worries me when I hear you say things like that. I don't want to see you get hurt any more than I want to get hurt myself.
