[UNICORN]

[when you open your eyes, you find yourself in a pleasant greenhouse. the sweet scent of flowers surrounds you, and the sun shining through the glass ceiling invigorates you from within. there are stone benches on which you can sit, and if you're hungry, there's a garden table with some refreshing tea and scones available to you]

[the voice– the good voice– echoes in your head again]

YOUR DESIRES. . . CREATED THIS REALM. IT IS YOURS. . . IT IS NOT TYPHON'S! I CAN USE THOSE DESIRES TO GIVE YOU A SAFE PLACE. . . FROM WHICH TO FIGHT.

BUT I CANNOT DEFEAT HIM. . . ONLY YOU CAN. ONLY YOU– WITH YOUR OWN DESIRES!! YOU CAN. . . RESHAPE THIS WORLD. . . HOWEVER YOU'D LIKE!

If that pride is unfounded.

[So sayeth the villain who never thinks his own is. BUT-]

But there's nothing to specify that it has to be a positive or negative emotion. So pride can work, if you can think of something you're proud of to share with everyone.

[ A thoughtful pause. ]

I'd say one of my proudest moments wound up being one of my biggest regrets...

[ Hmm. Time to turn the tables! ]

What about you? Do you have any regrets you learned from?

[You can't uno reverse card him!

Though maybe Henry will let it slide, as he often does more and more with fellow Unicorns.]


I don't usually carry regrets. But... maybe a little bit, recently. After I had lost my temper.

[You know, when he went on a rampage after a certain heart-stealing incident.]

[ Komaeda is more than a little surprised to hear Henry admit that, and it shows in the way his brows lift. Perhaps he should be a little more tactful when his teammate is showing even the slightest bit of vulnerability, but, well...

They were both there. At least, at the start. It's an incident he won't soon forget. ]


Ah, you mean, after Alec's heart was taken. [ He's just gonna put it right out there, yep. ] So, how did you rise about that regret?

[Any vulnerability shown is still a very big deal for Henry; even so, it's only a flash of a thing, and his usual smile covers it up a moment later.]

By offering an apology, believe it or not. Some of the forgiveness came faster than expected.

Most people don't want to carry the weight of a grudge. Mostly...they just want to be happy and free.

[ And hopeful, of course. ]
