And yet you are the kind of person that u am most concerned with, Giovanni. If priests only cares about the blessed and believers, our duties would be easier for certain but we would not be adding to the sacraments we pledged ourselves to.
[ It lasts for a moment but interest settles in how he looks at Giovanni. Kirei rests his hand over the cross around his neck, lightly pressing it against his chest. He looks away, allowing his gaze return to a more neutral one. ]
You have a soul. If you had no soul, I doubt you would be feeling much of anything... frustration and the like. [ His lips press into a thin line. Putting it into those words, it is saying he himself lacks a soul. And perhaps, that is true. Perhaps, there is nothing left but the black mud of the Holy Grail. ]
That will not stop me from trusting you. [ Because it doesn't make him happy or unhappy to trust or be trusted. In the end, it is almost a nonaction for him. When he thinks about that in those terms, he never really is disappointed or angry. Yet he understands (because who with common sense couldn't) that people take joy in trust. Kirei wonders then if his trust will be the leash he needs. Who knows? All he does know is he found an interesting pet and doesn't want someone who lacks imagination to have him. ]
But I have talked your ear off long enough. So... I shall let that be that. I will await with a pail of water when you are ready as that may be all I can do for you now.
