Do assignment 1 before you attempt this one!
Assignment 3: Write a scene where two friends are arguing. It doesn't matter what about, it can be something silly or serious. They may make up at the end, or they may remain upset and refuse to compromise.
Purpose: Handling conflicts between characters without making one evil.
Requirements: The characters need to disagree for longer than a paragraph. The characters need to actually be friends. Don't treat them like they're enemies.
Hard mode: Write a serious argument where neither character is in the wrong. (This means no arguments where one character did something incredibly stupid, hurt an innocent person, etc. It also means no arguing about what Kool-Aid flavor is the best or similar silly things.)

"Like hell you are!"
Kikari glared briefly to Devic, not answering the protest as he picked up a medical kit. As he went to leave however, the demon grabbed onto his arm. He tried to pull free, causing the demon to tug back with a growl.
"The asshole's just going to end up trying to kill you again!" he scowled.
"I don't care." Kikari murmured. "He was bleeding - at this rate he'll die."
"So let him! Scrappy, he tried to kill us!"
"I know that..." Kikari tried to pull free again, and Devic had to let go in order not to cut his arm open. "I know! But I won't let him die either..."
"Why the hell not?" Devic spread his arms. "You know he'll try to attack again. And next time he may actually manage to kill someone. The hell are you going to do if he attacks the kids or your family or some sh*t?"
"He..." Kikari paused for a moment before shaking his head, closing his eyes. "He won't. We'll stop him."
"By killing him."
"I'm not going to let him die!" Kikari glared at Devic before heading outside. The demon followed, growling and reaching to grab his wings before catching himself and stopping.
"And you'd rather risk getting everyone here killed...?" he asked instead, clenching his hands into fists, not noticing that his claws burrowed into his palms.
"Nobody's going to be in danger. I'll protect them."
"Like you did this time?" Devic taunted. "And let me guess, you're excempt from the rule? So he can kick your ass while you're trying to fix him up?"
Kikari nodded idly, heading toward the forest without a word. Devic swore to himself. "It was a joke you goddamn idiot!"
"Still, I don't mind if I get hurt." the robot answered with a light shrug. "I'll be back later..."
Devic swore again as Kikari vanished in among the trees, tail flicking from side to side. "I'm not going to save your goddamn ass this time!" he shouted after him. Still, after a few long moments of just staying there, he followed.
Even if he hated how the bot went about things, there was no way he'd abandon him to get kidnapped or worse just because of his naivéte...

<Lestat>So, let me get this straight. You don't feed from humans, you isolate yourselves, and you sparkle??
<Edward>Well, yes. Drinking the blood of humans is just...monstrous.
<Lestat>...then why call yourself a vampire. You don't even know what it is to be one.
<Edward>Because I'm still a monster for existing.
<Lestat>Get out. Just get out. Now.
