Oooh, I know! But there must be... somebody, something, getting close.

I'm not going to hurt anyone. Never again. But... emotions, emotions... I know how this works. Pain, fear, all of that... it just makes things worse, Tiger!
[she takes a breath.]
What we need... is love. Kindness. I'm not giving up on that.
[she's had time to recover, so now she's ready to be sassy about it.]
Then you know it counts as friends and family, too? Or simply bearing love for another living being?
So—I can love you, Tiger, and not want more than to simply have you as my Team Leader. [she crosses her arms.] And I can love everyone else in the Realm right now, and only want to see the best happen for them.
Don't you think that's a little better than just hoping violence works out for the best?

In the meantime... well, I guess that's a pretty good start.
