Even though I'm the one that killed them?

[damp]

What? You caused the explosion?

[foreverphantom]

Yeah? [ did you not get that from the memory?? ]

[damp]

[ lisa i can't tell if you're gaslighting me or i read the memory wrong ]

... But that was from some sauce. [ which is insane ] Why would you have caused it?

[foreverphantom]

...because I was the only reason they were all there in the first place when it blew up?

[damp]

[ Oh. ]

Dante. That's not your fault. Why would anyone have a reason to think a restaurant could be so dangerous?

[foreverphantom]

That doesn't matter. That's just making up excuses. The fact is, there was a vat of hot sauce ready to blow, and the only reason my family was there at that moment was because of my actions. If not for me, they would have survived.

[damp]

That's not...

[ ... ]

That's not true. But I get why you can't accept that.

[foreverphantom]

You clearly don't, because you still don't accept it as my fault. But that's fine. If that's easier for you.

[damp]

Easier for me? Hard or difficult for me doesn't matter in this case, I'm worried about you.

[foreverphantom]

What? Why?

[ local tsundere doesn't understand being cared about ]

[damp]

Because you're the one that's hurting. [ FROWNS!! ] And why would I want that for you?

[foreverphantom]

Because I'm an asshole and you barely know me?

And it's not like I'm hurting anymore. This was years ago. It's all ancient history.

[damp]

Just because you're kind of an ass doesn't mean you deserve to suffer.

[foreverphantom]

[ he pauses for a moment here. and then just laughs ]

Just "kind of an ass," huh?

I'll take it as a compliment.

[damp]

[ HEY ]

How else am I supposed to describe you?

[foreverphantom]

I mean, the descriptions I used to get were a lot less charitable. So this is an improvement.
