Even if it's all in my head, I won't stop trying to spend time with Setsuna. When it happens, if it happens, I'll stick around Alexiel. I promise. I won't leave my baby brother. Ever.
[He made a sound of protest when Setsuna started to cry, but he just clung to the boy when he burrowed closer. Steve hadn't meant to upset the kid! He rocked Setsuna a little as the boy cried, kissing Setsuna's hair while he mumbled soothing nothings, smiling at the boy when he finally looked up.]
Shh, it's ok. I didn't mean to make you cry sweetheart, and I absolutely didn't mean to make you remember such a sad thing. You wanna tell me more about Kira? I think you've mentioned him before. What did he look like? Did you two get into trouble together?
[He wanted to know. The potion made him more open as well, but Steve was actively ignoring the prompting for the most part. Setsuna seemed especially susceptible to it though. Steve knew he shouldn't push but . . .
He laughed along with the kid as he acted like a typical big brother, making Setsuna suffer and laugh until he almost peed. Because the kid should have at least a few good memories to cling to.]
