Stop apologizing, it's not like I actually expect you to backstab me. I'm just being cautious due to the field I work in.
And hush that negativity. If I had more important things that required my attention, I'd be doing them. But I'm on my own clock and doing my own thing, so don't go saying I'm wasting my time, especially when you're such a worrywart about your own.

*Looks at my hands*
Huh?-
*Looks back up at you and blocks the blow with two hands as an instinctive reaction*

If the worst you think you can do is stab me in the back, I really have nothing to worry about. After all you have almost no info on me, and I'm not exactly a blip in any system. Hell, Flicker isn't even my legal name anywhere, nor do I use it in any system.
Also I gain trust from this, the trust of others and potentially even yourself, though that last part is quite doubtful. Regardless, it's far more valuable then anything else, especially on this scale of the multiverse.

Why shouldn't I?

Shadow Matrix, Crystallise! *The magical shadow transforms and turns into millions of tiny rips in the dimension through which the gas flows; the holes eat through the amaranthine until it disappears completely, dissipated out into empty space; due to the filtering of light, the rips look just like shadow, though not all senses are disrupted from now on*
Very clever. Wasting my magic. Art! Science! Ruined! So uncivilised. You know, learning and art are the markers of a truly great society, and you have just destroyed both like you have no taste. I should call you the lesser!
*Swings Vita in a complicated, sinuous form, and bursts of sharp light spring from the sword and shoot through further dimensional rips, appearing at random points very close to you and shooting toward your body*

...you know what, yea, at the start of this I was fulfilling my word and doing my job because I bet my own life on it. I honestly felt that if you were suffering to the point that living was worse then death, and you wanted to off yourself, I would have let you if it wasn't for that promise. Because I can understand that life isn't all flowers and daisies, that to keep someone alive to just save your own heart from loss is a shitty thing to do, especially if they've been through hell.
But at this point, by damn I am not going to let someone I actually somewhat know off themselves because they keep holding a pity party over the past. I am not about to let some aquaintence I care about dig themselves deeper because of stubborn thinking. And I am not going to give you your pity party or let you think that you'll solve your problems by lashing out and doing the same shit until you vaporize into your own misery.
I don't know you well enough to call you a friend, but I am not so heartless to ignore what little connections I have with people, be them family, strangers, or my friends. And you're right, I don't know what shit you went through. And you don't know what shit I've been through. So stop stabbing your own damn will to live and direct that frustration and hurt into a mord productive direction, you dense fuck. Your life isn't over, and your "former friends" have yet to leave you even after the bullshit you've thrown at them.
So if it makes you feel better, cuss me, punch me, consider me your most annoying and twisted enemy, but don't you dare think I'm going to give up or do this halfway, however much you might hate me for it.

*Suddenly comes to a halt not far from you and grins, wagging one finger at you tauntingly, before my entire body becomes super charged with electricity*
