Not even for me, the one who's watched over you, protected you, loved you since long before you'd ever known of their existence, long before either of you were even born in this life?
Can you tell me I no longer mean anything to you and truly mean it, Juudai?
No, I can't. I can't honestly say that. Even my own soul isn't really my own; it was his first, wasn't it.
Now that I've admitted to that, can you tell me that you see me as who I really am now, rather than the prince who pledged his love to you and then couldn't go through with it?
You share so much. Your looks, your personality, your presence... your soul is one and the same. And then he died, and I couldn't stop it, and I had to watch my one and only love -- and my last hope -- vanish before my eyes.
Don't even say that to me. You cannot even remember the events of the past. Until you know everything, do not act as though you do.
I accept the responsibility that Haou's power entails. But does that really mean you should view me as I was, rather than as I am now?
I know enough to know I can stand on my own now, as I am, as the person I am. Maybe... maybe you need to--
...Ah, damn it. I... had a feeling I wouldn't stay so calm forever...
...Look. I don't feel like arguing with you anymore. Don't do anything to either of the Johans, to me, or to the other Juudai. Because I'll protect all of us, no matter what.
Though definitely not in the same way.

Can you truly call them your lovers? What have they ever done for you besides pleasure that mortal coil of yours?

They've been there for me and even more than that. Always. So I...
...I do love them.
I wouldn't give them up for anything.

...All you ever saw was your prince, didn't you?

Have fun while you can, Juudai.
Ignorance can only be bliss for oh so long. There are things that were meant to be that cannot be denied...
You have no idea what's coming.
