[ Koharu looks up at him in surprise, but just as quickly her face falls into something more wistful, a hint of regret seeping into the air about them. ]
So he's like that, huh? I think that's a good idea. I wouldn't say you should do something you don't wish, but... sometimes there's something blinding us to another's true feelings, and we don't always notice.
[ Koharu trails off with a hint of reluctance, slowing their movements. She seems to be considering something for a moment before slipping out a gentle, quiet exhale. ]
I was thinking that I was like Claude once. My best friend had feelings for me for a long time, but I was so caught up in my own head that I never noticed. And now I think—if only I had, then maybe we could've...
... So it isn't your fault. Some of us are just really thick-headed.
You mean besides not being super dense? Or giving her a better opportunity to confess...?
I wish I could have done everything differently, but... I mean, I guess what I'm trying to say is if he isn't noticing, he might be like I was. So... if you're up for it, it might be worth saying something to him first.
It's too late for that now, but... it's okay. I have regrets, but I made sure she has someone she can be happy with, and maybe one day I can find the same, too.

[ as far as yves knows anyway ]
But more like... he's one of my best friends here. I just hope that can stay intact. That's more important to me than anything.

[ Koharu trails off, thinking. ]
Even so, do you think you might regret not ever telling him?
no subject
... no? I don't think it's a matter of regrets.
But... I do think I want to tell him, if only to make a point about something.

[ and he'll look thoughtful about this ]
So... now seems as good a time as any to take advantage of feeling all these emotions.

... is it something you've seen a lot, Koharu?
[ he feels that lil bit of regret ]

[ She starts just a little, shaking her head to regain her bearings. ]
Sorry! I got lost in my thoughts there. It's okay...
no subject
No, it's okay...
What was on your mind?

[ gently, because yves genuinely isn't that shy of a person once he's made up his mind about something. he's on the pursuer side of the chart ]
... but maybe you can always ask the angels if you can get a chance to do some things differently when you go back, Koharu.

no subject
I think you can. One way or another. You're a person who deserves all the happiness the world can offer, Koharu.

[ the air grows warm, full of soft and fuzzy feelings ]
But I didn't mean to make this about me. I wanted to encourage you to say something, that's all, but it looks like you have that in mind already.
