[Dirk is surprised but he lets Dave take the shades, assuming it's the whole 'worrying about when Dirk decides to break them' thing (HE ONLY DID IT TWICE) and is more surprised when Dave removes his own. But okay. Dave can have their sunglasses.]

I would prefer if you didn't stop asking me for dumb things, since I genuinely enjoy building them for you. I've always enjoyed building things for the people I care about.

[Brobot was a mistake, but it was still a labour of love. Lil Seb to Jane. Every single thing he could make for his friends, he did, he wanted to. He likes doing that.]

That used to be true for me, but for a while now I've started to doubt my own judgement call on what's best for someone else's sake. To be more clear about it, if I'm absolutely certain that it's bad for someone, I can say 'no' readily. But I've also made a number of very bad mistakes in thinking I know best for others. It can be paralysing for me to try to work out what kind of call to make on your behalf, or Roxy's or Rose's or Jake's, just because I've tried to make those calls before and I've ended up really hurting people. I've hurt you makin' calls like that, even. [specifically] The Lil Cal situation.
