...if you go... who's going to help me practice not being so... [So much? She's a lot. It's selfish, but she can't think of many other people who have gone out of their way to try and help her the way Ludger has, and she's a little scared to lose that.
But - isn't that what he was trying to teach her this whole time?]

[ and that's. that, i guess. ]
I promise I'll come visit you - you're not getting out of practice that easily. And if I get the chance at the end, I'll come back, okay?

...I'll be waiting for you. Don't disappoint me.
[jUST SAY "THANK YOU" LIKE A NORMAL PERSON AMBITION]

[ he'll do everything in his power not to be.
but before he pulls away, he's got one last box to tick. ]
I know you can't tell me who did it. So I'll ask instead - what faction do you think I should focus on eliminating?
IF ANYONE KILLS LUDGER I WILL CRY. NOT AMBITION, JUST ME.
[well.]
Ruin.

I did. If I break my promise, feel free to curse me, okay?
[ ludger n o ]
