So...the sacrifice has been made, the connection's unraveling, and as soon as you get back she'll forget about you and she'll be safe. Is that what it is? [ interesting. ] ...and you're looking for a backup in case somehow this doesn't work.
That's right. I'm sure it's going to work! But, you know... just in case.
[ Just in case it doesn't, so he won't have failed. Just in case it doesn't, and there's a better way... one where she can live, and he can still be a part of that life. ]
I understand. [ and. the sad part is yeah, he does. he does understand because he himself tried to have a couple of failsafes to save bianca and bring her back and still fucked it up. but at least he was able to save hazel.
I know nothing. [ please don't stab him. ] ...I don't know how just yet, but I can look into some things and see about a back-up plan. What my father doesn't know won't hurt him.
[ That's better. The knife goes away, falling to his side as his other hand comes up and touches his chest. It feels so much lighter already, such a heavy burden being lifted just by hearing somebody say that he'll try. ]
[ gods. he's not sure what can be done right this moment, but...a promise is a promise. he'll have to figure out something...if only because he knows the pain of wanting to protect someone so desperately you'll do anything. ]
Don't thank me yet until I figure out a solution. But I'll do my best to find the best one.

[ Which means setting his original plan aside, aka Nico singlehandedly prevents Hanako from tpk-ing the entire rest of the game ]
