[he will take a sip of his tea, and gesture for the shadowy figure to also make something for molly. something to soothe his tummy, even if he's feeling better and also if he doesn't drink it
he hums faintly]
... do look after Shinobu Kocho and Tsurumaru Kuninaga for me, if you are able.
Only that they spent even longer in the camp with Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd than the rest of us. And Tsurumaru Kuninaga in particular is... stubborn, when it comes to grief.
... and so the best way to look after my heart, is to assist in looking after those I love.
[because he feels like he's being lightly fussed over, and he would simply love to redirect that energy]
[ But there's a bit of guilt that crosses his face, because honestly in this instance, he might be here because he wants the comforting feeling of being around Mikazuki for himself this time. a little selfishly. ]
[ a bit of a grin, but it's on this side of manic, and fades away quickly. ]
You know, where he came from, Emet-Selch apparently knew this absolute bastard version of me. So, apparently, he was right to be frightened. Apparently I'm incredibly fucked up, no matter the round.
[ he isn't quite sure what to take from that - it's a kind sentiment, at the very least. ]
Shadow's an interesting word, to me. It's not as if it doesn't hold some shape of you, still. I don't have the convenient excuse of not having any of the other guy's memories this time.

You have my gratitude.
Even though you did give me a few frights today. Even this heart of mine might risk giving out at some point, you know.
[between the poison and the locket. molly please,]

Yeah. [ he goes very quiet for a moment, and then looks up. ] Shite.

... will you tell me more of the weight your heart carries?

[ he doesn't mean to sound snappish, and makes a face like he regrets it as soon as it comes out of his mouth. ]

[but he doesn't seem to mind being snapped at, only smiling faintly as he gives molly's hand a gentle squeeze]
... I am relieved you are still here with me.

... you are as you are. Whether you are a piece belonging to another, or slowly becoming whole all your own.
What the shadows may touch upon you is not reflective of the person I have come to know, and who I will wish to know for as long as my blade remains.
So I am sure.
