Well, I issued the order and he reluctantly followed it... basically because I locked him in a cupboard and refused to get him out until he agreed. But maybe... he's trying to let... people in?" She sniffed and leaned her head to the side a bit. "I can be really naive sometimes." Cue a bitter scoff, because Joao didn't show such sign with giving Adam such a colorful bruise.

She stayed silent, looking at her legs stretched up in front of them as Paulie laid down the real situation before her eyes. They needed to sort things out... Joao needed to be more civil but it wasn't down to her to do it. The sixteen years old looked at him and hesitated. "You said, back in the garden the other day, that you're not just friends with me because of Adam." Because he might not like what was coming from her mouth, however it'd prove him either right or wrong.

"Sometimes I want Adam to fight back. Show Joao that he'd crossed some red lines. Set some red lines that even someone with Joao's ego can't cross." She looked down and started toying with her bandage, "I think it makes me feel less... pressured. To think that Adam takes a lot of blows on my account without complaining, is making me worried most of the time." Because Adam deserved nothing like that. "It's a great trait to be so selfless and sacrificing but... I want him to be selfish for some time. He almost doesn't acknowledge his desires and needs rather than seeing what fits his friends.." And herself, "..the most." He continues to be so selfless, she was going to continue taking care of him... even drawing the said red lines for him.

Paulie really didn't know what was going on with the Brazil Nut. That boy was a conniving snake for all he knew! "I donno what he's doin', but I'm still totally suspicious about the dude." Yes, Paulie thought he was up to something..... or something. "How do ya think you're naive?" He wasn't agreeing or disagreeing, but he was curious about her answer.

He furrowed his brow and looked down at Louisa's face when she brought up their previous conversation in the topiary garden. He waited to see where this was going..

And then he understood. Paulie nodded slowly as she continued. "I know what you mean," he admitted. "Not that being selfless is a deficiency - definitely not," on the contrary, "But he is very... polite and understanding." Like his habit of tacking on 'if you don't mind' at the ends of his sentences. Though fortunately, he didn't do that with Paulie anymore. "I've had the same thoughts, though. I mean... you and Joao kissed, for Merlin's sake, and he barely raised his voice!" Maybe Paulie just thought this was strange because Paulie would have been suspicious, and possibly mad, at Louisa, and THEN he probably would have gone and hexed the Brazil Nut 'till he was sorry he even looked twice at his girl! He looked down at his hands. "I think he lets too many things pass, but then again, that's just how he is, ya know? Plus, I can't be one to judge 'cause I'm probably a little bit too quick to act." Thus, the whole balance between Adam and Paulie. But the whole sacrificing himself for Louisa thing, Paulie got why she didn't totally want that. Paulie hated owing people, and Louisa probably felt that Adam was doing too many things and making too many sacrifices just for her benefit, and not for his. He looked back to her again. "I do know, though, that he does that stuff just 'cause he loves you and wants you to be happy."
