[He's bony and tall, like hugging a scarecrow. She's not even altogether sure if she's reassuring him or grounding herself, anymore. He makes promises that sound like he's doing set dressing on a stage before the curtain rises, sculpting a reality as false as Seiko's. I'll do this. You'll do this. It'll be like this. It'll be all right.
But maybe it's not so bad to lie to each other. And anyway, she's used to assuming promises are falsehoods so she can't be disappointed by them when they're broken — but sometimes they don't break. Abbacchio said I won't abandon you and didn't. Prompto Argentum said I'll protect you and did.
She wonders if he can manage it, Noriaki Kakyoin who wants a man who lived when he didn't, a man who went on to get married and have a daughter while his corpse was discarded like garbage. It's doubtful that he has any room to want anything else, when he's already preoccupied with wanting someone who's already lost to him so much.
But maybe he'll end up doing it, anyway.]
I want to apologize to Hierophant-kun. Will you tell me how to do that?
