I think everyone can change, it takes time. But it's not easy, especially at my age.
[ Century-old habits are hard to break, as much as he wants to be better. It's easy to return to what you know, to what works. Sometimes, that's survival. ]
... But I did something I didn't get to do before. Got rid of those regrets. [ His smile isn't as bright, it's solemn but tender. ] What about you?
...I hope you feel more at ease for it, letting go of that burden. Seems like you may've had it for a long time. [ she offers a quiet smile in return as she studies him for a moment. ]
I didn't come here with any regrets. Just trying to make sure it stays that way, you know? Doing fun things [ as fun as they can be in the UG ], spending time with people.
Those must've been the longest twenty-four years ever.
[ she smiles wryly, and reaches out to very gently honk his nose, unless he dodges. also i'm in tears that he is still in a minion costume as they talk, but maybe she can find something else for him to model... (knivescore...) ]
...Really? I never took you as someone who was particularly afraid of anything.
[ she's only half-kidding. but he sort of has a disregard for his personal well-being? or something like that... anyway, she thinks back through the last few weeks, and nods. ]
Nothing's ever perfect, but I'd say I've done what I can.

[ Well, he thinks he looks like a skunk, but a handsome one, so he pockets that. ]
It'd make a nice farewell, right? To show that things have changed since I came here.
[ At least he's a good sport about it. ]

...A lot has happened, hasn't it? Do you think you've changed at all?
[ the idea of farewells does, surprisingly (or unsurprisingly), make her a little sad to think about. ]

[ A joke because profile. ]
... I think so, but the same fears stay, you know? [ A laugh. ] Or they got worse.
You think you've lived up to that? Afterlived?

I am a burrito. [ Legit. ] Wow! What makes you say that?! I'm scared of plenty of things... Like when I was trapping spiders earlier in the game.

Cozy. [ comfe burrito... she takes the edges of the hood and pulls them tight together so his head is extra swaddled. you're so baby, sir. ]
...Pretending to be scared and actually being scared aren't the same.
