[What Marco says is a lot to take in. Even moreso for Beast since, no matter how often he's seen him in passing around Luceti for so long, he has never spoken with him or heard abou him from anybody else. But he knew about pirates. Growing up, he was told that they were bad people who raided villages and stole valuables, yet were also adventurous. He has learned similar things in the books he has read or heard about from Belle. But then he recalls Robin, who has told him is a pirate, and while he never quite knew what that meant, she has always been kind and friendly to him. And from what this man says here, he's thinking that that is what he's trying to imply, that they are not all the same.]

I don't know what it means... but uh, ma, many have told me th-that it's not about... appearance. It's about what's... inside.

[The next part is said with deep weight in his voice, indicating how much confessing it means to him.] Pe... people here tell me... th-that I'm not a monster... because I am good... i-inside.
