“I merely care about your wellbeing.” Neo rolled his eyes.

“I’m touched, but can you not for like today please?”

“I think it is my responsibility as your God.” Neo grinned.

"Don't you have other more important things to worry about?"

“Yes, but I find you rather important, too.”

"Go! Do your other things! Don't pay attention to me i'll be fine!"

“I don’t really have anything else to do.” Neo tilted his head at her.

“Please Neo. I can’t even come up with anymore reasons you should let me go but pleeease.”

“No. Go with someone else. I’m sure Xanthe would be delighted to come with you, North.”

“Why are you so insistent on me going with someone? I can take care of myself.”

Neo shook his head. “Because it’s important to keep you safe in the rough times.”

“You don’t have to keep me safe. I’m not that important.”

Neo sighed. “Yes you are. You’re important to a lot of people.”

“But I won’t get hurt!”

“With that confidence you will.”

“I’ll be careful I promise!”

“Carefulness doesn’t always work, Noorth…”

“But it might this time. Please I’ve lived in cities all my life. I know how they work. I know there are bad people and I know how to avoid them.”

“There are a lot more bad people than there were. Carefulness might work, you said it yourself.”

“It usually does!”

“What if there’s the one occurrence it doesn’t?”

“Then I’ll have to deal with it. Alone. Like I always have been.”

“You cannot deal with everything the city throws at you alone.”

"But I have been since I was little!"

“That was years ago, North, things have changed.”

"It's been like a year and a half!"

“Yes. Crime rates have flown up. Please don’t be rash.”

"What if..I get someone to go with me once i'm there?"

“At least have someone come with you to find your first choice.”

"No I don't need to!"
