[There's a Johnny in a tree, Vatheon. He's just sitting there, smoking, looking out over the park. It almost seems like this is an accident until he finally starts speaking, still not looking at the device.]

It's a funny thing: emotions.
Some people run their lives by them while others spend their entire lives running from them.

I used to think it was silly to run from something as natural as feelings; I mean...pretty much everyone has them whether they like it or not. Humans, trolls, vampires, dogs, cats, demons...everyone. Why bother fighting something that isn't trying to attack you?

Of course...I think I get it now.

[A pause and he sighs, smoke making the view hazy for a moment before it dissipates.] Still. Emotions are scary things, aren't they? Perhaps that's why people run from them, they're too afraid of what those feelings mean and do.

[There's another pause and, for just a moment, his mask drops and he looks a bit like a lost child. Another second and it's back again with a smirk as he finally looks at the SFC.]

I'm not going to ask people whether they run from their emotions or not....just giving you all something to think about.

[Because, clearly, this isn't something he's dealing with himself. Nope.]
