What did I say about consequences?

His memory of the past two years will be restored when I choose for it to be. I work on my own schedule.

Time is hardly relevant to me.

Unfortunately, most of us do not have the luxury of immortality. Josiah is a valued member of the Refugees. He's an asset. It is an inconvenience to have him in his current state, and if you are not going to tell us why you need him like this, then I at least ask you to restore those memories within a reasonably short amount of time. You owe us more than that, but I don't expect to get much cooperation from you.

I know how oppressive the chains of morality can be - perhaps more than you know.

You have my apologies, then, for failing to meet your ideal standards.

Was that a freudian slip? Morality instead of mortality?

Whatever the case, I think you're being pompous and disrespectful, and I think you have distanced yourself from humanity more than is healthy.
Coming from me, that's an inch away from hypocrisy, but it's true. I don't want to be your enemy. I would rather understand you and even help you, if what you're trying to accomplish isn't harmful. You are using my friend, so you cannot say that it's none of my business.

It would seem so.

I fail to see what's so good about humanity that I would want to keep myself close to it.

Maybe we can speak on another occasion, if you so care to.

Trust me, I know what you mean, because I've often argued the same, but humanity does have a few good points. The ability to care about others so much that you would endanger yourself to protect them, for instance.
Humans are social creatures. It's instinct, and if you were ever human, than there must be some need for companionship in you, even if it's buried deep. I will offer that, if your goal does not go too far against my moral standards.

I will speak to you whenever you wish. I would rather that than put up with your silence while you reside within my friend.

Consider my interests piqued.

Soon, then.

Your manner of speech is beginning to remind me of the last humanity-begrudging immortal with questionable motives whom I befriended. I hope for the sake of your own well-being as much as mine that you are less corrupted than Xemnas was.
