What's the worst thing that has ever happened to you?

[Please, go into detail. Hearing about the misery of others is a bonding experience for him.]

How did you handle it? Did you get revenge? Could you get revenge?

Oh... I am so sorry to hear this. Incomplete revenge can fester in the heart. I think it too bad that you could not deal with the one whose fault it really was. He deserved a punishment.

My world has some similar system of making people garbage. It is sickening.
Sir, I will tell you... I think, if you keep open mind, you may find your foothold in unexpected place. I think there are many here who want someone
Maybe, someone needs help you can give
Maybe there is a friend who needs a shoulder to cry on
or a stranger who could use a listening ear
Someone needs a strong hand to hold that they know won't hurt them
Right now, there are many children with unfair life crying in the side streets, from the ruined cities
They miss their mother, father
I remember I passed a girl holding a very small brother and small brother said "when is father and mother coming, when, when"
She didn't say anything at all
I realized later why. Those people are never coming... they are dead
I think... it may be easy for people like us to imagine, if we were them, what would make us happy or give relief for a moment
Maybe warm food?

Where are the kids? I'll take care of kids. Daozhang and I can find food for them and beds can be made out of almost anything.

I might be a monster, but I wouldn't toss a kid out. [He used to be one of those kids. It's remarkable he survived - as scarred as he is from it.]

They don't eat much and I've got candy to spare now. They would like a treat, don't you think? Daozhang and I just need to work on finding a big enough place for all of them to get cleaned up and rest.

See? I believe you can help a lot. Even if our past is not very good-- mine isnt-- we can do something good for this world.

I work at a children's care center at the Kaika Theater. They have space outside for the children to play safely. They like to laugh and run and play. Some games are like the type children play where I am from-- chasing or hiding games. It is so interesting.

I work whereever they need me-- usually, I care for one or two babies and a small group of children. But there is always need for more help. If you and Daozhang (I am guessing you speak of Master Xiao Xingchen) care to join me at work I would like that? You can give out treats and show them games.

Children are always a good reason to help!

That's pretty laughable. [All the same, he's thinking about all of those kids. How many have died because no one cared? There's also something...something...about imagining Xiao Xingchen caring for a bunch of bratsbabies. It would be...cute.]

We'll be there. Where? What time? I don't mind looking after babies. Even if they're fussy.

[And this will definitely help his image in the daozhang's eyes.]
