It is the fate that awaits me. [ What I want has never once mattered. ]

[ that is painfully relatable, and it's exactly why she has to press. ]
You do have a choice, though. Now, in this moment. You would not choose to go somewhere else?
no subject
[ softly. ] If I have the chance to go back and grant my nation the chance for peace, I will not leave it.
[ and beyond that, he loves iria. he loves it beyond all things. ]
no subject
[ as does she. which is why she can't ask him to leave it. ]
Then... at least, please do not return merely to resign yourself to "fate."
No matter how fixed your course in life may seem... there is always another path. I want you to be able to believe that.

[ it's hard to really feel that way, anymore. the heavens should have made that better, but it's made things worse - if there's a single lesson that has been repeated to him, over and over and over, it is that he will never, ever, ever escape. dying wasn't the way out - over and over again, he has been chewed up and spat out and reminded that his goal was always redemption. to be redeemed in the eyes of the radiant. to fix the mistakes he made by daring to think that he could be allowed to have any freedom at all. he couldn't escape in death, he couldn't escape in his brief skip to convallaria town. there is no escaping.
he gives her a smile, though, and says none of that, dipping his head in acknowledgement. ]
Well. That is the point of this, isn't it? To have a chance to try again. Perhaps I will find another path, indeed.

Thank you. There is no predicting the future, of course... so. I'll just have to see.

sadly, eupha's third eye cannot read metatext. ]
We will still talk, yes? If we can still use our phones...
no subject
Of course. [ immediately, so hopefully that's a relief? ] That would make me very, very happy - I wrote many letters, before. I will do the same for as long as I am able. I hope that you will tell me all of your adventures, Miss Eupha. I would like to hear of them.
no subject
Oh, but if we can send pictures too, that would be marvelous, wouldn't it?
no subject
[ even if they told the same story three times, it'd be three different viewpoints. there's a little pang in his emotions, something deeply bittersweet, but he nods. ]
It would. I... [ ...cannot get my hopes up. ] ...we shall see, either way. But it would bring me great joy to see the world through your alls' eyes.
