"They're not too hard-" Not when they could keep Alfie safe anyway. "-but if I sell them and then, if they go wrong and something bad happens then I'll be in trouble." he said, and it was clear that he was also warning Alfie in a way, but then he had to say it too. "Please don't ever do that again... it's better for you to have it and hope it works than not having anything at all, but I don't want you to put yourself in danger just to try it out... if anything happened to you-" he cut himself off there because the 'l' word that he hadn't said was a heavy lump blocking up his throat.
