Slobo was only beginning, in essentially, his infancy, to be a kind being. And years of entrapment had taught him that there was good and bad to it, which was why it was coming so slow to him now. He simply stood his ground, albeit in a sympathetic stance.

"When someone takes a path from me, I find a new path." That was all he said, and all he felt needed to be said. He cared about Sheeana, she was a nice person by the standards he was used to, though she wanted to be 'cruel' by the same standards.

"And when ya find a new path, one ya ain't used ya, there're always people who'll join ya. I'm livin' proof."
