[It's now that he finally chuckles, a small quiet laugh that bubbles up out of him. Complicated it definitely a word for it. He smiles downward at the plate of food he's pushed to the side, focusing on it because he's not sure if he can look up quite yet.]
Does it truly matter anymore? If it's him or me? He's right, you know. I've been warding him off as much as I can, but I've failed more than once. And with every day that passes, I can't help but feel as if the line between where he stops and I begin fades away more and more.
[Ajax thinks back, not only is that the case, but his memories have been popping up into his head too. Ones he can remember clearly, telling him more and more about who Childe was as a person back then.]
He and I aren't all that different. I'm really not surprised that no one's noticed yet. And perhaps, that fate might befall you, too, if it hasn't already.
[He looks to her now, as if to ask if she was sure that she hadn't changed. If maybe, Lumine from the distant past was also similar to her, in some ways. So much so that even Aether wouldn't notice.]
