"I think it's lovely." She pushed him down to lay on the bed,
sitting on top of him. Her hands found his own, intertwining
together. "You always have a look of guilt. I want you to genuinely
smile, Kendo. I'll do anything to make that happen."

"Then confess your sins, and I will forgive you. You can tell me
everything on your mind. Why are you so guilty? What do you need to
atone for?" She smiled warmly and stared down at him, nearing her
face to his.

"It ranges from petty crimes, like theft, to literally destroying
entire universes and killing everyone in them. I've committed
genocide, blown things up, started nearly every major war in known
history, killed, destroyed, murdered. I even killed capital-G
god!"
"Simply asking, it's nothing really..." She seemed to radiate a
faint warmth, leaning down farther until she was able to kiss him
softly. "Be free of the things that weigh you down. You can't
change the past, but you can do things differently now, so don't
dwell on it for too long. Remember your roots, not your flaws."

"I can't do things differently. Even if I try to make things right,
Who can guarantee the next version of me will be like me? What's
the point? For someone like me, being alone is better. That way I
can't hurt anyone."
"But you haven't hurt me. Are you really this deadset on trying to
prove my love is invalid? That I should hate you instead? Because
that's never going to happen. I told you before." She giggled.

"You aren't trying to use or abuse me. You haven't gotten tired of
me yet. You don't mind my affections despite me acting childish at
times, you're always keeping me company. You don't resent me. You
even blended in with the Legion soldiers to watch over me." Her
smile grew wider. "Need I go on?"

"Yes." She moved to lay down, facing him and keeping one of her
hands in his. "You wouldn't hurt me with malicious intent. You're
always looking out for me, staying with me despite knowing you can
leave and never have to deal with me ever again. I love that about
you."

"Go ahead and tell her. At the end of the day, what is she going to
do? Stop you?" That made her laugh. "Besides, you're your own
person. She can't force you to not love me."

"If you tell her I told her not to, she won't. But... That probably
only applies to you." She smiled once she heard his laugh, leaning
against him. "So, do you love me?"

She leaned up to kiss him again, holding his cheeks. When she
pulled away, she pressed her forehead against his. "I'm glad." She
moved her hands to his hair, brushing through it with her fingers.
"I love you."
