[It's obvious from all of the blood that Issei's been in a fight. He has a large wound to his stomach - healed through Persona magic, but the blood is still drying on his clothes - and more blood drips down his face.

He looks relatively calm, however.]

Lord El-Melloi II. Waver Velvet. We need to speak, and it would be good for us to do this before your Shadow attacks me again.

I suppose this should serve as a general reminder not to go out alone at night, as well.

There really isn't anything to talk about. I apologize that my Shadow caused you harm, but I'll take care of it.

You won't do it alone. You shouldn't be stupid enough.

I'd prefer to. You, at least, certainly shouldn't accompany me, all things considered.

I can't in good conscience let you go alone and risk probable death.

It's not your decision. This is my Shadow, my problem, and I shall take care of it myself.

That's at least better than nothing. I wouldn't be doing my duty if I allowed you to get hurt in an easily preventable situation.
