Because when your friends get hurt or die, you're sad. It's a thing that happens. And you'd be losing the life you have now. Like...don't you kinda like it? Maybe you could have another host and another life someday, but I think maybe you should focus on the fact you're alive right now and living with family and friends and whatever. What's the point otherwise?

[ he's not sure how to word it. maybe that works. maybe it doesn't? but. ]

And I'd feel sad that I wouldn't get to talk to you as you are now, you know? I guess that sounds weird probably to you....but I'd miss you.
