[Faize is quiet as he listens, face unreadable. This is...kinda sad, really. He had no fucking clue just how deep the side effects of shoving Bill into a human meatsack ran. Until now, it's mostly just been...exasperatingly comical. Like dealing with a toddler. Okay well...a little easier than dealing with an actual toddler, since at least Bill's mind remained more or less the same. Developed enough to make him rational, and therefore less infuriating, despite his wide-eyed wonder and lack of common sense.]
[But this is different. Everything Bill is saying just strikes him as so wrong and unfair. Not that anything about this situation has ever been fair. And Faize...Faize has no idea what to say to any of this. Especially not when he kind of agrees: emotions are terrible. It's hard to function logically when you have to "put up with all these...feelings," as Bill so aptly put it.]
I could never take that as anything other than a compliment, frankly. I try not to give others a reason to dislike me. [Because he likes people, despite how detached he seems most of the time.] Though... I will, at least, apologize for putting you in such a difficult position, emotionally.
[HE'S SORRY HE GAVE YOU A FEEL?]
But...it will not be this way forever. All we must do is figure out a way to end this "game", and you will surely be returned to your original state of being. And we will certainly have need of your abilities at that point. So...take it one day at a time, until then? I'm afraid I have no real advice to offer beyond that, as this is admittedly an area in which I also find myself struggling. I believe this is, unfortunately, one of those situations that a friend once described as "something only you can find the answer to".
