[ that.

this change of tone? ]

You can.

[yamantaka]

I'm not saying this to change your mind, or anything along the lines. Just... to let you know.

[ giving her a tight smile ]

Somewhere along the way, my feelings for you became serious.

[sacredchants]

Wh, what is that supposed to mean!?

[ if she's angry it's because WHAT THE FUCK SHIMA!? ]

Somewhere along the way?

[yamantaka]

Well, I don't know when it actually happened.

But, I realized it and shouldn't hide it anymore.

[sacredchants]

[ NO ACTUALLY WHAT THE FUCK!??? ]

Why bother telling me at all? Back then—from what I can remember—were your feelings serious then?

[yamantaka]

--They were, yeah.

[ not spoken, he realizes it now ]

[sacredchants]

[ THAT MAKES IT ALL THE MORE WORSE!? ]

...and, again, why bother telling me this now?

[yamantaka]

[ L I S T E N. i never said i was smart ]

You deserve more honesty.

[sacredchants]

[ .... ]

Did dying teach you all of this?

[yamantaka]

It certainly helped.

[sacredchants]

This won't change my mind about anything—you said it yourself.

[ ..... ]

If anything, I want to believe in what you told me so I might have to chance to see Alphinaud again after this.

[yamantaka]

Yeah, I know. And that's fine. [ mostly. ALLOW ME ONE PETTY MOMENT AND I'LL BE FINE ]

You'll be fine. Things... won't turn out how you want them, but it'll be the best that it can be.

[ a beat ]

We have good friends.

[sacredchants]

[ HARM HIM AND SHE'LL HARM YOU SHIMA. ]

...you're calling them friends now?

[yamantaka]

Are you?

[sacredchants]

I haven't thought that far yet.
