[He scoffs softly.] What difference does it make? [If he drops his grudge against Yuan, his grudge against Kratos, against those who had destroyed him, he would still be alone and miserable.]
Exactly. "What difference does it make" means that it can't make things worse, right? And keeping things the way they are doesn't make anything better.

The day means nothing to me. [He tries not to associate the date with the time he had spent with Silver, Frey, and the others last year, as a child who could trust too easily.]
[Of course not. He doesn't want to be alone on any day; he had never wanted to be alone again. The world never cared what he wanted.] ...I'd rather be left alone than bothered by humans.
[He had been prepared for Silver to press further, ready to block his questions from burrowing underneath his skin. Instead Silver just...backs off. He doesn't know which he hates more, but he scoffs.] I won't.

You're alone here, aren't you? Are you really telling me that you want to be alone on Christmas?
