It is the most vulnerable that Fang Duobing has been with him--save perhaps for the sharing of their wishes that had been foisted upon them. This feels... both easier and more difficult, partly because he can decide how much to tell and partly because he still has to be the one to tell it. He nods a little to Inigo's smile and his gentle words, his usual buoyance subdued into thoughtfulness.
"...It's not just about fighting, though. For me it's what I aspire to, and maybe for this child you encountered, it's also his dream." It certainly sounds like it is, but there's something about Inigo's push-back from before that he still wants to make clear. "But everyone should have a chance to chase their ideals as far as their ability allows them. I think that's true of all aspirations, so long as they don't cause harm. If you have something else that you dream of, you should be just as free to pursue it."
