“I don’t understand.” A phrase he commonly used with other Kaitous, usually disapproving ones. “We’re just having fun… they knew what they signed up for when they joined the police force…” A sort of forced justification.
Pandora rested in his heart both physically and emotionally. Tonight was when it was its most vulnerable. And its most powerful. It hummed quietly under his suit with its arcane power, whispering to them both, hush boys, don’t fight.
“I can have fun, too, and it doesn’t have to involve death. Even if being an officer comes with danger, that doesn’t mean it gives you the excuse to be the one that brings it. It’s one thing just causing harmless trouble, giving a show and a chase, but hurting people shouldn’t be fun. Why did that suddenly change?”
More scolding than any actual fire behind the words. Knew what they signed up for… That’s more an excuse to the ones suffering than a reason to cause death. Like a thief should be prepared to be caught if he chose that line of work. Yes, he’s prepared, that doesn’t mean he wants it to happen. People who do try and catch him don’t care about that, they do it for their own reasons, just him and people who care about him that should use that kind of thinking…
Else you just try to shift blame to something never meant to be taken that way.
“Maju-Kai… do you hate me? Is that why you’re treating me like this?” Tears streak down his face, but that’s normal during full moons. “I don’t understand why you aren’t happier for me or my double.”
He’s frighteningly sincere.
“…I don’t hate you entirely, no. I’m not happy about the influence and what you’ve done.”
Overall, he’s more sad or scared of the gem possessed ones than angry. Yeah, not liking blatant uncaring for people dying, but he’s fairly certain the Kaitos, if they weren’t possessed, wouldn’t like it either. So… it’s hard to be entirely angry.

“…That motorcycle stunt really is still physically impossible, you know… Fire catches onto spilled gasoline too slowly and actually moving on the thing spreads the leaked gas too thin for the fire to catch. Not to mention, even if it did make it to the tank, it wouldn’t blow up…”
See why he doesn’t really take physics into account when dealing with tantei-kun? Impossible explosion is why. Not fun.
“What if oyaji did break it? …Never any word he found it, but never anything saying he didn’t either… But he didn’t have all this mess of crossing over dimensions either. …I don’t know how, or why it ended up spread so far… But… I take it that stone doesn’t tell anything about how it came to be broken, does it?”
And he doesn’t plan on asking it himself. Ever.
“…If Pandora messes with your mind that badly… then I’m definitely going to to everything in my power to destroy my piece when I find it. Did you forget why? Do you want to make more people like us? Broken families and doubts, hating those who took the people they loved from them? It’s not wrong to care. It’s not starting a cycle. People dying, people changing… I don’t want that to happen. If you’ve forgotten what it was like, how painful it was, how wrong it felt… then I can’t help you. But I’m not going to follow your path.”
