I do wish there was a better way of being able to reach the people inside of it. Time is the only thing that does much good in the end, it seems, but we don't have much to spare.
It's not a bad thing to have this kind of confidence, though. He appreciates it - the way that it's grounding to know that she'll always be herself, confidently and unashamedly, regardless of the circumstances.]
I believe that, and I have faith in your ability to find those endings wherever you may look for them.
[Love! He's just a little guy who loves love, but in a way entirely different from Yves.]
To me? I think love can be many things. An evening spent with a precious person, a gentle hand reaching out to guide you, the feeling of God's benevolence... I'd value an ending filled with love like that.

[ she still won't think he's annoying about it until he's annoying about himself. ]
I can't help but want to reach out. I don't know how to stop myself sometimes.

Not trying at all would certainly be the bigger regret, I feel... So I suppose the two of us will have to keep trying together.
no subject
We will. Hand in hand. [ they aren't holding hands right now for once. ] Tt won't become too much for you, Lucas?
no subject
It won't. [He says it with a peaceable sort of confidence.] I'm very good at overcoming trials. And you, my dear?

elysia's expression is fond. ]
I would love for you to have an ending like that. I want all of that for you. A warm and endearing love to guide you to the happiness you deserve.

Lucas just smiles, plenty of warmth to it.]
Thank you very much. I pray that we both find the endings that we're seeking, in due time.
