[ By the time Al gets into the room, Luca's apparently made the smart decision to
not

Instead, he's sitting silently on top of it, fidgeting and watching the door nervously. ]

I'm not mad at you.
[Al's voice is much softer, now. He strokes his hair with a sigh.]

[ For a little while, he doesn't say anything else. Then-- ]
I just wanna bring Negi back for you. So we can all be together, an' you'll be happy again.

... I know you do, dear one.
But when someone goes... you just have to let them go. Even if it hurts. We can't play God.

I know. But when someone goes away like this... we have to let them go.

"It's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all."
He plays with Luca's hair.
"I'd rather have had just a few years with him than have never known him at all."
