...I don't think I could even if I tried. I understand why Syaoran wants to trust him at least - he's probably reminded of his friend, and he's said as much. But, he's no longer the person he used to know, even if I don't doubt Watanuki has a soft spot for him either.

[ Riku could see that Watanuki is capable of caring. But at the same time, it seemed to him that trusting a witch completely is dangerous. He doesn't think he can convince Syaoran otherwise, but he hoped the others would at least consider being cautious at least. ]

People do stupid things all the time, so I can't say I'm surprised.
