...Yeah. [He says, after a moment of thoughtful quiet.] I can understand that.
[He can't remember a time when he didn't know he loved Rosa, but--this concept, at least, isn't difficult for him to grasp. Especially down here, when they're all so close together all the time. How could he not form connections of his own? Even something simple, like greeting Dahut every morning or taking trips to the Night Market with Shouxue.
Spotting those moments of happiness isn't difficult, especially when they shine so brightly in contrast to everything else they're dealing with. And he knows, of course, what it's like to find that in a person. Accepting it, though, or even pursuing it... well. That's a very different struggle, at least for Luke, who has never put himself and his desires first. Sidon says it like it's easy, and Luke can only attribute this to another difference between them--something to admire about Sidon, but that he can't apply to himself.]

[ the connections they have, love and care in all forms—maybe there's a science to it, but he thinks if they are roaming souls, then there's an important to the bonds they've made. they have to be anchored here somehow, lest they end up like the ghosts.
he isn't really talking about romance, though it could apply there, too. he is just a little more reckless with his feelings, whether it's excitement or love or whatever else. ]
Whatever happens, or however much longer we all have together it seems a waste not to treasure this time to its fullest! Whether it is... love, or friendship, or all the steps inbetween.
[ what's there to lose, bringing someone else happiness? ]
