[Steve was fairly close to both truths; Setsuna's nature made it difficult for him to see most people in a negative light for long, and he was naturally drawn to Lucifer, and other celestial beings. At Steve's concern, Setsuna looked increasingly uncomfortable. He swallowed, but that didn't help.]

I don't think he's a madman. He cuddled with me. And I'm not so sure he likes being the bad guy, here. [He looked away, ashamed as he admitted all of this, especially with Steve's sincere and sweet offers. He bit his bottom lip and rubbed one foot with the other.]

Thank you. I don't want to take advantage of your kindness, though. [He listened to Steve, and tried to stay quiet, especially since what he was about to say was in relation to someone else.]

If...if it was like before. When I died, I would just reincarnate. Then you could find me again. Like my best friend did. He followed me from life to life. [At that, Setsuna's hands tightened into fists and he shook his head, trying to hide his face away. Until Steve clarified his request.]

But what about you? What if something happens to you if you go around asking? [The question was asked with a slight frown.]
