There's a long pause after Mizuki finishes talking. Wolfwood has been facing away the entire time, but unlike before, he isn't breaking things while they talk. He's stopped everything else to hear what he has to say.
Only when he's done does Wolfwood actually look at Mizuki directly for the first time since he came in.]
...it does. Yeah.
[It actually, really does. It basically describes all the problems he has with dealing with Vash, the problems Vash has dealing with other people, because he's so convinced he's undeserving of anything that he has to make that reality. In his mind, the longer Wolfwood stays, the more likely it is he'll get hurt, or worse. He gets that.
But that isn't what he cares about. And that's where they fail, every time.
Wolfwood exhales slowly, walking back over to the table still sitting up unbroken in the middle of the room, leaning the sledgehammer up next to it.]
I really don't wanna give up. It's just...talking to a brick wall gets to you after a while.
[But maybe that won't happen if he refuses to play its game.]
