It's only a choice if a spirit can voluntarily become a demon, isn't it? If we're speaking about something that must be a demon from creation, with no option to change its inherent nature... I would say that's not just sympathetic, it's pitiable.

[If L could weep for anyone, it might be a devil, he's so accustomed to trying to see the world through evil eyes.]

I would hope that it doesn't feel dangerous at this time. None of that is going to happen to you just by speaking with me about it, and I put my trust in you to be frank.
