We are partners. Locked together, as it should be. I will not allow him to break away from me, whether we're both Weapons, or Meisters, or monsters.

He is equal to me. Not to Mello, or Near, or Matt, but to me.

[He seems almost affronted by the suggestion, agitation creeping into his tone.]

He belongs to me, do you understand? I have that distinction as long as I'm still alive. And as I surpass others, he surpasses others. He surpassed me by killing me, but that won't happen again.
