[ Well, since you know it's Knives, with it comes a sense of being annoyed with his twin younger brother. He thought that his addition to the score was unnecessary, but he played along because he is the older brother. Playing this song together... Being together—the symphony was complete. It was whole, much to his chagrin.
He was happy and hoped nothing changes. This was his paradise.
What does he even say after that? ]
... He's a fool.
[ There's a tinge of resentment yet also longing. He misses him. ]
It is true that I cannot understand... I have not had to endure longstanding persecution.
But continuing to view the world such harshness seems as though it only serves to hold onto one's hurt.
[ Funny enough, RNG did spit out a Terence memory. Enjoy this awkward gay breakup, Knives.
There was a time that you believed that without Terence, you would crumble. You are glad to bear the burdens of prince and Dominant of Sanbreque, glad to obey your father's orders, and glad to give your blood to the protection of your people.
But you're not always strong enough, and you believe with full certainty in your heart that it's in those moments that it was only Terence who has kept you alive.
Just as now, you're certain that you will die.
There is only one path forward for you, and you've no choice but to walk it, but you cannot do it with Terence waiting for you. It might still be less cruel than this, but you have never claimed to be a good man.

Indeed, naivete can be foolish, but there are some that value the quality of their years over the quantity.

So you ease at least one debt from your ledger, and bid Terence farewell.
Excited for Knives to be like wow I do not care about this at all. ]

HE WAS GOING TO SAY SOMETHING, but then this memory is harshing his vibe. ]
This does not speak to your optimism.

You could have not. It would have saved you and this man tears.
... But I wouldn't say what you did was unlike my brother. You two can both strive for a naive view.

You would choose a relationship over dying while fighting a god? You are quite the romantic, Callisto.
no subject
SO YEAH, HE GLARES AT DION. Knives would be single forever, honestly. ]
I would choose to protect my own without giving them up. I won't accept death as a choice I'll make out of my own volition.
[ He will struggle to survive for as long as possible until/unless there's nothing left for him to live for. ]
no subject
[ sorry dion is so like sometimes people should just die (for their own good) ]
But I will not argue this with you further. It is a noble cause to protect the lives of those one holds dear.
no subject
[ shut up he still wants to fight no i'm kidding he doesn't ]
That cause is to fight a god?
[ he loves the bible............ ]
no subject
well, anyway. he frowns. ]
Indeed, Ultima... It is a being that arrived on Valisthea eons ago and gave rise to humanity. Now it means to sacrifice us for its own purposes.
If we do not fight, then our destruction is assured.
