...I'd heard of it happening before, but this is the first time it's personally happened to me... What... [There's a hint of hesitation and sadness in his voice.] ...What exactly happens to someone who's sent away from here?

...I'd heard of it happening before, but this is the first time it's personally happened to me... What... [There's a hint of hesitation and sadness in his voice.] ...What exactly happens to someone who's sent away from here?
[Action]
...But only if you'll let me.
[Action]
[Richard isn't quite sure he understands.]
[Action]
Ahh... Yeah. Nothing I've said, about wanting to continue protecting you in the future won't matter... if you won't let me.
[Action]
[And now Richard is faced with a dilemma. On the one hand, he doesn't want Asbel to feel obligated to do anything for him, to risk his own safety to protect someone like him. On the other, he doesn't want to make his friend feel bad by turning his offer down. What does he do now?]
[Action]
[Action]
... if that is what you truly want.
[Action]
Ah... Thank you, Richard!
[Action]
No, thank you. After all, you're the one who vowed to protect me.
[Action]
Ah, well... I'm just doing what feels right to me...
[Action]

...Richard, there's... actually a reason I came to see you.
[Action]
Did something happen?
[Action]
[Action]
[Although he has a sinking feeling that he knows exactly who Asbel means.]
[Action]
... ... ...Lambda...
[Action]
[That's a good thing, right? That means he won't have to be experimented on again, trapped in a body he had no say in... Richard should be glad about this, so then why does it hurt so much?]

[Action]
...Will you?
[Action]
[Which isn't really an answer, but shhh.]
