your hope is twisted and gross.
it's ugly and dirty.
uglier than warts or rats or wrinkly old ladies.
dirtier than worms or public toilets or swamps.
uglier and dirtier than anything.
because you're a demon, you don't know what real hope is like anymore.
so you shouldn't talk about it like you do.
once someone becomes a demon, their hope doesn't mean anything anymore.
their hope and your hope is no better than despair.
it's even worse than despair.
that's why demons only deserve to live and die in despair.

Do not

Do not say such things to me. Such cruel things. I'm trying to be nice to you, don't you see? I am. I'm giving you everything you want. I will touch neither you nor your friend. I will harm no children.

you're only trying to be nice because you're scared now.
because you're an adult and i'm a child, but i hurt you really bad, and i killed you, and i could hang your body up all by myself.
or you want to hide that you're a demon, so no one else can see it.
that's what you demons do.
you don't want to look bad, you don't want anyone to see you as the awful person you are.
that's the only reason demons are nice.
if everyone else thinks you're a good person, then i get in trouble, and nobody cares if you hurt a child, or they won't even believe it.
they'll say i'm lying, because nice, good adults never lie.
nice, good adults would never hurt children.

[There's no way this could be anything else. It's one or the other, or maybe both. But there's just no way he's actually being nice for the sake of being nice or making amends.]

but okay.
if you really mean that and you really won't hurt any children, i'll stop talking.
even if you're the one who wanted to talk to me first.
if you're lying though and you hurt a child, i'll do even worse to you than what i already did.
and if you're lying and you hurt my friend again, i'll make you beg fog-sama to stop bringing you back.
you'll beg her to just get rid of you.

[Both Jataro. It's both.]

You've made your position abundantly clear.

How many people know what you did to me?

i don't know.
i only showed it to my friend, but i did put you up in a park.
maybe lots of people know.
maybe lots of people saw you, or maybe not a lot of people did.
i didn't stay to see.

[He doesn't really care either way.]

Thank you. Your honesty is refreshing.

Do we have any other unfinished business? Any more promises I need to keep?
