I once hid in the safety of another name, too.

[His eyes soften as he reaches for Teal's shoulder.]

But look at yourself... Look at him. You both need each to be whole. He denies what you've contributed, but I speak from experience. The courage to keep moving forward comes from recognizing just how precious life is...

And you know that firsthand, don't you..?

[Teal listens to Atem, considering his words. He wishes there were some truth to it. But eventually, he shakes his head.]

I've been trying for weeks, but we still fractured and he still stabbed someone.

[Oh yeah. He looks to Joshua.]

I'm so sorry about that. You didn't do anything wrong.

Why did you not tell anyone here? In your final moments... you say you regretted to tell the truth. Do you realize you're repeating the same mistakes..?

Because it's all I know how to do. I'm not strong, I'm not good with words...Smarts really aren't that useful without the charisma to get people to listen to you. And...I never really trusted any of you with the truth before. I didn't have anyone I felt like I could tell in the first place.

[Mostly because he keeps people at an arm's length anyway.]

I can't speak for others... but I am sorry for letting you down... I should've reached out to you.

Friendship takes more than one person to work. So does communication...

No, it's not your fault! I could have reached out sooner too.

Then when we get out of this... When we save you--- both of you...

Let's be friends, okay? And we'll go somewhere to eat... just like we always do.

So keep living, Teal. Until the very end.

...I would like that, yes.

[How could he not be friends with someone who went through the worst parts of him to save him.]

[ waves off the apology because 1.) eh, it was just another tuesday (friday, actually), 2.) he is not used to apologies, h e l p ]

It's fine. I'm surprised it only took 4 weeks, I think my own partner wanted to stab me on the second day or something~

[ NOT THE POINT BUT OK ]
