The innate compulsion, pure and simple, is why I prefer prime friends.
The things that Sythyry has done that prove zie is a true friend include: the endless patience with me and my constant providing of trouble; the general lack of the wish to exploit my powers for zir own gain; the occasional admission that I am a person, however flawed and inferior, and worthy of consideration as one; the unwillingness to abandon me even when it would be convenient; the general lack of fear of me; the similar things. The last century has given Sythyry several chances to break off zir friendship with me, and zie has not taken them.
I will grant that you are a person with flaws, but you are not 'inferior'! :( And you are certainly a person worthy of friendship and respect.
Is the compulsion to befriend Primes connected with the desire to get things from them? Is it kind of like the way Cani emotions of sallafan and dellafan are connected but different? (Sorry, I don't remember how to spell them.)
The Cani emotions of salaffan and deffa are more dignified and noble. The compulsions on me are as like and unlike them as blind drunken lust is like the purest love.
