Won't you ease my mind?

    Is anything ever really yours?  Have you ever really thought about it?  I mean, look around you.  Name one thing that you can truly possess, that isn't going to die, isn't going to fall apart.

People pass away, object break, get lost or stolen.  What is truly yours?  It's easy to not care about the material things, and sometimes, even people.  But when you give yourself the impression that something is actually yours?  Losing them is the scariest thing in the whole world.

Maybe Elizabeth Blake was wrong, the art of losing isn't easy.  It's just something we all get use to.

On a more metaphysical note, Jonba is asleep in a box.



Call me, call me,
Let me know it's all right.
Call me, call me,
Don'cha think it's 'bout time?

Do not threaten me. The consequences are unimaginable.

According to you. However, I understand that you projecting here.

What are you going to do, little boy? You don't scare me. Nothing does.

*Laughs.* You really think it was she who left me?! It is most assuredly the other way around.

*Hiro's eyes are flat and black and his smile is colder than ice.* That is because you have no imagination, sir.

Is that why you had her locked away? If you do not want her, then why can her parents not take care of her, take her off your hands? Surely, it must be a burden to care for a woman you do not want. You have her child, there is no reason for you to hang onto her.

Neither do you, I'm afraid. I've faced bigger, and tougher men then you and I'm still the one left standing.

Are you talking about my wife? We're married, it's my husbandly duty to take care of her, and there's no way I would ever divorce her. I love her too much, I am more then happy to take care of my wife.

What's mine is mine, no one else's.

*Hiro gives a bit of a sad sigh, like Liam's too stupid to understand.* I would hardly box with you, sir. You are far larger than I and you have kept yourself in good shape.

So, who left you? Your daughter? If so, then you have even less of a hold than you assume. You have no right to tell your daughter what to do, especially since she is now of age. She is not yours; she is her own person.

At least your smart enough to understand that, it would hardly be a fair fight since you are a rather short, chubby thing aren't you? *Cruel sneer.*

That's where you're wrong. She likes to go and play, but always comes back home. She is mine, she will always be mine.

Unfortunately, my people seem to go with 2 builds - small and thin or somewhat round. Obviously I am of the second type.

For a man who accuses his daughter of attempting to seduce him, you seem very adamant in holding onto her in a manner I find quite disturbing. Would it not be better for you to have her marry someone else and deflect those desires from you? It would also allow you more time with your wife.

Well it's good to see that you know your weaknesses.

Have you ever thought I'm trying to protect you?

I also know my strengths, sir.

I know how to protect myself. You need not worry about me when it comes to your daughter and you need not worry about her when it comes to me.
