After what seems an impossible delay, he takes in a deep breath - he is emboldened by his new powers and the changes with which he must now deal and he is inspired for a moment to let the whole thing fly out of his mouth.  How he feels - exactly! Well, Payne, the problem is that when I look into those eyes of yours I can't help but have feelings for you. Feelings I didn't think I'd feel again.  The eyes are the mirror  of the soul they say and when I look into yours...I want to come inside and share the space if you'd let me.  I can make you happy for once in your life - that is if you want to be...?  What is happiness - hell, who knows, the feel of a few coins in ones purse as he rolls into town, revenge extorted on ones enemies, and even happiness between two people who share a few fleeting moments of passion in this world of ours.  That passion need not be physical, at first, but the shared passion of two people who enjoy each others time and appreciate one another's ideas.  That's where I get to my problem Payne....  I think you know how I really feel about you Payne so don't play with my heart...or at least I thought you did till you sided with Kol, of all people, down in that complex.  I felt betrayed Payne - you broke my heart.  I thought you we were on the verge of closeness and then I screwed it up with silly practicality and orcish pragmatism.   I think, or at least hope you know, I would have never made you do anything you didn't want to do.  I could never do that to you.  Sure, I know what I said but I was just being dramatic I guess trying to make a point - I don't even remember what it was.   Anyway, there it is for the record - my problem.  Perhaps you feel nothing for me, perhaps nothing more than you feel for any other member of this crew, perhaps you loath me - now is the time to say it.  And for the sake of any possible future friendship on any level - please don't hide behind your tough girl image with me - I know you are a survivor, it is one of your most endearing qualities.  We share the survival background, when you speak to me as if I know nothing about it I find it insulting.  Just this once...let someone inside there with you...you may find it surprisingly pleasant.  I am no master here to subjugate you - I want only to walk with you and discover what is in this world.  </blockquote>
