there is still that whisper of a feeling, that part of him that would betray the whole world for love. adolphe is the anchor that keeps him in place from careening off the cliff edge after her, unafraid of the ending as long as he can hold onto her hand. he knows that this is what she wants, and a long life with adolphe is what he wants too—
he just doesn't know how to let go of love. ]
What can I give you, Ellie? [ softly wondering ] Is there anything left I can grant for the most beautiful and loveliest girl in the world?
[ if she were truly, truly honest, she wouldn't hate it if yves would follow her to the end, and that's what she thinks is one of the most dangerous things about herself, in how she would accept that kind of insanity born out of love. it's only her greater love for everyone she reaches out to and reaches back that reminds her of what she wants to protect and fight for.
it has only ever been love. ]
Is there? When every moment with you is already paradise? It would only make letting go that much harder.
[ . . . he really would still give her more. it's difficult, when it feels like there is still so much left to want. a life together. a happy ending. a chance to be in love for more than just a few hours, and to get to act like it.
in the end, this is what they decided on, though. to have even received one beautiful night with her feels like a dream. ]

... I wanted to ask, to be sure.
I don't want to say goodbye with any regrets.
