did you feel like soeki and i were like, ganging up on you? i'm sorry. we weren't trying to. i know i'm like, always on soeki's side or whatever, but that doesn't mean i don't like you. soeki's just... i've never met someone who was so much like me before.
I don't think you're ganging up on me. I can handle someone disagreeing with me without thinking they don't like me.
I just wanted to make sure this is what you want and that you actually understand the risks involved. I figured it would be easier to think about the downsides away from someone you really look up to.
So do I. So does he actually. If he can forgive me for some of the stuff I've told him about then I really don't know what you could ever do that would change how he feels about you. As far as he's concerned the way he cares about you is unconditional.
i love him too, but it's just scary. there's no way he was looking to end up with a messed up little sister. he's already got a sister back home and i bet she's way better than me.

I thought it might be easier to talk to you one on one.
I thought maybe you'd be more open to conversation that way.

He loves you.
I think he's happy you admire him that much.

Trust me.
You'd have to do something really terrible to mess things up with him.

I know you have a hard time with insecurities, but he loves you.
He'd be upset if he thought you didn't know that.

Soeki doesn't change the way you feel about your brother, right?

<oliver>
It's really not about competition.
