"'S what I don't get." It seems an awful lot to Ginko like the older he gets, the less he can bring himself to do. He knows, of course, that there are still plenty of people who would consider him kind of a stubborn ass, and maybe there's some truth there - but, sometimes, it feels to him like he caves so easily, there's barely a point to trying at all.

The question is whether he's actually ended up easy to put off, or if he just expects himself to be more stubborn. He's not really sure which would be worse, given how badly the times when he doesn't back off can go.

"You said you've chased people for longer than you should, and I get that much. I just don't see how you don't give up."
