I don't have the right kind of thinking to be good at connecting with others. I doubt I ever really will, to be honest—and I don't know if I even want to.
...I used to think that way, too. [They're really wondering if they should be sharing this, but if it'll help it's worth a try.] People never listened to me and I didn't have a lot of friends. But someone came along and gave me a chance to change myself. I took it and I changed myself.
...it still wasn't what I wanted, but someone else came along. Someone really important. It's because of him that I had the chance to really help other people and create bonds. I couldn't have done it without him. Sometimes all it takes is one person, even if you don't always see them.
Maybe you don't think you're going to be good at this and maybe you don't know if you want to, but...please think about it. Okay?
[in a way, love's words hit close to home. ray wasn't entirely accurate before—because he did change. open up his world a little more.
but still, he tells himself, his family is different. the people here are nothing to him, and he's nothing to them. who knows? maybe it's for the best that it stays that way.]
... Fine. I'll think about it. [...] That's why you're the God of Love, huh?
[It's a little more personal than they know they should be sharing, but the tone is still light and sweet when they answer.]
Something like that. [Love is important to them. Maybe someday they'll get to explain everything.] Take all the time you need. I'll be right here if you need my help deciding what to do.
[While Love knows what they'd like their followers to do, Love also believes in letting them pick their own paths. They'll be as supportive as they can.]
