[He can't really understand, though he's trying to. The closest he can come to understanding is the Greed in the other world, how his consciousness must have come about-- all of those souls within the Philosopher's Stone that made up his core coming together in one consciousness. But he's certain that there weren't many thoughts in his case-- there was always only the one. The singular hivemind.
What sort of person the other Greed is doesn't matter in the long run because he still strove for his own individuality, something Greed himself had spent his many years struggling to understand and to put words to.
Even with all of his time being a slave to Dante, Greed had never experienced anything like France is describing. The idea is terrifying.]
Then I hope you never go home, for your sake. To live chained to something, to live as a prisoner, that's not something I want anyone to experience. To actually be truly free is something I've yearned for for three hundred years and I've finally found it.
That's the reason I broke the chimera out of prison. That's the reason I saved Kimbley's life. It's why I would save his life again even though he betrayed me. Before coming here, it was the first time I found a kindred connection with a human. It was the first time I realized it was possible. I'm three centuries old and before Kimbley, my only friend had been Envy. Now I know I can be connected to people. Even people who aren't like me.

I don't want that taken away from me.
I can't let that be taken away from you.
