[He had jumped to conclusions. It was hard to believe anything that Pokey could say. But was Pokey here in this town, powerless, and separated from the real world just as much as he was? And if he was helpless, REALLY helpless.. Would it be the right thing to do?]
You've still got that head of yours, Pokey. That's dangerous enough, more than any weapon you could control..
[Do I take him out? Do I put an end to him here? What am I thinking? I can't do that! No matter how evil he is.. But.. But he'll be free. He was my neighbor, once. Maybe I can help him. Maybe this is an opportunity to try and be friends again.. ?]
But if you're stuck here like I am, maybe you aren't as dangerous as I think you are.
[He relaxes, trying to calm himself down in thought. His fists unclench, his knees standing straight, but he can't completely let his guard down. No, not in front of Pokey.]
