[ law's frustrations exist outside of fukuda's sadness and steven's disappointment. he feels them but ignores them. though that temper subsides a only a moment when steven looks at him for his opinion on the matter, which is honestly very clear to him. ]
I have no interest feeding into this feedback loop of abuse, but I'm even less interested in how this is going to be pinned on us.
[ because this is a load of bullshit. hello?? does anyone even want to stop and think of the reasoning here?? cue law sliding back to the realm of irritation. he's frankly insulted. ]
The onus is on him right now. I did my part; he did his, and now Steven completed one cycle. If he wants to stop then he'll leave it.
Well, I'm not much help to most people. [So CAN he really afford to be picky??]
But I will talk to him again. I didn't have a proper understanding of the situation because he didn't tell me the full truth. [A rare emotion for Fukuda: he is a little annoyed.]
[ Hm. Steven feels a little less disappointed as he feels the subtle annoyance. He didn't think Fukuda had it in him, so that's nice. ]
We'd appreciate that. I don't have any intentions to continue to fight him -- in fact, I'd been making active efforts to make relative peace with him, up until he came up to and torched Law.
If he's swearing to not take another shot of revenge, then I'm willing to ignore his presence, or maybe even be civil again.
[ law skirts the self-depreciating comment and annoyance and just tempers himself in general. ]
I'll stand with what Steven said with a caveat that if he does go after Steven again I'll make sure that we come up with a way that he'll regret being given the boon of not being able to "die" again.
[ yes, yes, we know who the real murderous person is in the room is, but law can put himself into that role for the moment. but anyway, this is not a threat but a fuckin promise. ]
[Why is the serial killer the person here with the least amount of murderous intent.]
That's fine, I suppose. I think having to die over and over again by drowning is probably pretty much that already, but that's not one of the ways I died in a well so I don't really know. [In any case.]
I just think we'd be better off as a group if everyone could at least sort of get along? Since we don't know how long we're going to be here.
[ the fact that law would and he present for it's implementation is also a thing. anyway given where this conversation is going, law is nearly going to walk himself away from him, but will have a hand on steven's shoulder as he turns from fukuda. ]
I haven't tried, but I haven't been actively seeking to interact with him since I took off his head. [ and extra. ] So, you can tell him that as long as he keeps it that way then we'll have nothing to worry about.
[ law almost says one more thing but then drops that. they're just asking for the bare minimum here. ]

Again, Fukuda.
I said I tried. I didn't hold the fact that he literally murdered me with a shovel overlong and tried to be civil until he came after Law.
Just don't come after either of us, and I won't touch a gray hair on his head. How about that for a statement from me.
