Hey, you've reached the great Zelos Wilder! Leave me a message and I'll get back to you when I can. And if you're one of my hunnies, I'll get back to you even sooner ~ ♥

[Kratos had been about to hang up, honestly. He's reached the point in the conversation where he's mostly speculating to himself, or so he thought. Zelos starts talking, and he keeps talking. If someone had told him last night that he'd be having a heart-to-heart with Tethe'alla's Chosen, he probably would have thought that they were the one who'd had one too many drinks instead of Lloyd. It's not as if he likes Zelos - in fact, he has an intense dislike of the man that he's become, even if he pities the child that he once was. What he's saying now makes sense, though...

Is it really that simple? If he just tells Lloyd honestly how he feels, will that be enough? It seems almost unfair. It wasn't intentional, but he did abandon him. And yes, he'd had no choice but to behave how he did regarding Mithos, but he knows that the "betrayal" he had acted out hurt Lloyd deeply. He can't be forgiven just with honesty, can he?

Part of him doesn't even want to be forgiven.]

Is that all? It hardly seems adequate after... everything.

[Where would he even start? How do you begin a conversation like that?!]

It's not easy. Hell, you'll be paying for it for the rest of your life, probably, but Lloyd...

[Another pause while he gets his thoughts in order.]

Lloyd forgave me.

[And that pretty much sums it up.]

...he did, didn't he.

[Kratos lets out a quiet sigh. He'll have to work on what to say to Lloyd.]

I will think it over.

[He pauses awkwardly before speaking again, but sounds sincere.]

Thank you.

...Yeah, whatever. It's not a regular thing, I still hate your guts.

[He doesn't sound nearly as vehement as usual though. He clicks off the feed, trying to get his head on straight before going off to take care of his best friend.

That was not a conversation he ever thought he'd have.]

[He wasn't thanking Zelos for helping him. No... he was thanking him for caring enough about Lloyd that he would speak to Kratos even though he clearly loathes him, and about such a sensitive topic at that.

Zelos isn't all that terrible. Maybe.]
