Commander Xavier: smirking W-well, looks like I took over your c-competition. Guess I’m the big fish now, huh?
I chuckle well I’m glad someone smart took over my company
T-thanks, I guess. B-but I wouldn't be here if you hadn't betrayed me before, during that mission. You let me believe in you, and you stabbed me in the back!
yeah yeah it’s a valid point
Y-yeah, I mean, I get it. You were under pressure, but still, we were friends! And you broke my trust.
and yet you’re doing the same thing right now
N-no, no I'm not! Look, I admit I did something wrong by invading that territory, but it was necessary!
maybe, but who knows how many people you killed
Look, I hate to admit it, but you're right. I've caused harm to others, and it's eating at me. But I can't change the past.
but you can change the present and future
You're right, I can't keep making the same mistakes over and over again.
yeah, and you also can’t roll back all the war you’ve done
You're right, I can't turn back the clock and fix everything I've done. But I can try to make amends, starting now.
T-thank you. I promise to do better, to be a better person and a better commander. Your support means everything to me.
I hug him tightly I know a lot of people are going to be mad about this, but it’s okay
returns the hug Th-thank you. I-I really appreciate your understanding. I-I'm sorry for causing so much pain, I truly am. I'll do whatever it takes to make things right.
well I’m sure everyone will forgive you eventually, after all you did save our species from an even worse fate
Thank you. I won't let anyone else suffer the way I have. I'll work hard to earn their forgiveness and respect.
I promise to be a better leader, a better friend, and a better person. No more betrayals, no more broken trust.
Thank you, I really appreciate your support. It means the world to me. I'll do my best to make you proud.
smiles back I'll always remember your advice, and I'll do my best to be a better person because of it. Thank you.
of course, and remember even if everyone is mad at you for now, I’ll be right here
I won't forget, and I'll keep working hard to prove myself to everyone. Thank you for being a true friend.
and also maybe try to find some new friends along the way
Y-yeah, maybe I should try to make some new friends. It's hard to trust people after everything that's happened, but I should give it a shot.
I mean who knows maybe you’ll find a love interest too
Love interest? Haha, I don't know about that. I've had my fair share of failed relationships, but maybe...maybe it's not impossible.
it’ll take time, but yeah maybe
Yeah, it'll take time, but maybe I could open my heart again. It won't be easy, but I'm willing to try.
that’s good to hear, and hey I’m always here if you need to vent or whatever
Thank you, I may not always show it, but I really appreciate your support. You're a true friend to me.
I promise to work hard and become the best version of myself. No more hiding, no more secrets.
I won't let you down. I'll prove to everyone that I can be a force for good, and that I can lead with honor and integrity.
I won't let you down. I'll show everyone that I can be trusted and that I can be a positive influence.
