...I think something like that is impossible in any world, Nanase.
[He says it as gently as he can, but there is nothing that will make everyone in the world happy, and certainly not everyone.
But he drops it, listening to what else he has to say.]
...That's what we're trying to change about The Foundation, Nanase. They see us as tools - and we want to make it so that they realize we're more than that.
And - I'm sure Red, at least, would listen to you. Maybe even Archer, if you phrased it the right way, but - you're better off with Red.
But - I'm glad. I'm glad that you realize that you don't want to do what they tell you, for the 'greater good.' Not if it comes at a cost to you.
[He looks over, placing his hand on Yoshi's head.]
You're a lot more valuable than just a tool they can use up and throw away.

..."We?"
[Who's "we?" Is there a group within the Foundation like that...?]
...Mm. I don't know if it's really because of the cost to myself. [He'd like to live a long life of course, but...]
...I want to make people happy. I'd do anything for it! But... tracking people down for the Foundation like that...
That's not the kind of happiness I want to give people.
[Not the joy of ending a life.]
