It's alright Hope.

[A pause. Hm...] Well, I guess I could explain more if you would like...

You... you don't owe me anything Amaterasu. I was wrong to be scared of you. Yeah, I wish you would've been more upfront about it instead of pretending to be someone else, but I hid something from you too.

Let's.... let's just call it even.

I'd... actually like to go back to being friends with you... if I haven't already blown my chance.

[He smiles, relief flooding through him.]

That's good. You were one of the first friends I made here.

I never wanted to stop being friends with you.

[Hey, there's smiling and then there's baring fangs. She learned the difference]

No, it's not dumb. You were scared for a reason. You thought I might be like the fal'Cie... At least you didn't try for a different confrontation.

[He chuckles.]

[He's joking obviously. He knew deep down that you were harmless to him.]

But... thanks for letting me have a second chance.
