Yes, well this time I'm expecting to get stabbed, so I suspect a rush decision will go much differently.
[he said, still clinging to his boyfriend rather than start throwing things from the armiger]
You realize that's incentive enough for myself and my family to end up clear across however many galaxies it takes for me to forget today's ever happened, right?
Okay, King Issues, you know that's not gonna happen. We'll end up wherever we end up, and it's gonna have nothing to do with what he's doing or where he is.
[Izunia, being the cowardly brother himself, knows that's unlikely to happen.
Especially because that would mean that Church and everyone else would never get their free shot.]
If you want to never see my face again, that's your absolute prerogative at this point. I...
[He fidgets. Admitting what he wants is hard when he knows the last thing he deserves is to get it, but - Ardyn doesn't seem to be putting anything on the table, does he? So if Izunia says nothing, they'll just continue circling around each other like this.]
...I would like to keep in contact, even if only in some small way to know that you're alive.
[the point being 'i will literally cross this universe if if means never having to see you again']
And why should I? My life is no longer your concern, and I'm not all that inclined to keep in touch with someone who stubbornly haunts the nightmares I unfortunately have as a mortal.
How the fuck is that not the--?! [He shuts his mouth instantly with a clack of teeth and set jaw and decides, okay, so, best course of action, pretend you're not here.]

Have a shrug, Ardyn.]
Well, you don't seem to know what you want.
[Make up your messy two thousand year old mind!]
If you don't want to, I have neither the desire nor the ability to force you.
[Because he does realize that Ardyn isn't likely to take desire alone as proof, not from his mouth.]
