1. Sometimes I wonder what it'd be like if... things happened differently. I know it's better this way, though. I just want to see you happy. I'm always going to love you.

2. You're one of my best friends. Don't worry about the scars, okay? ... And can we just not talk about the beach?

3. I know it's probably really selfish to say this, but I'm really glad you're here. I missed you so much. Maybe that's why I've been so affectionate... Sorry I never was before.

4. Man, for all we've done and gotten along, I feel like you'll break my face if I screw this up.

5. ... You too. And you're scarier.

6. I'm never going to forgive you for what you did to him. But that doesn't mean I'm giving up on you.

7. I still need to teach you how to use magic, don't I?

8. I keep wondering if it's bad to say you're glad if someone's here again. But dammit, I am. And I know a lot of other people missed you too. ... It's going to be so weird knowing you're here and not waking up to breakfast made by you.

9. What else can I say? I guess... uh, till the Malnosso or whatever do us part?

10. Thanks - Thank you. You gave me something to do while I was sick, something I was actually proud of. I feel like I finally understand you a little better, too.

11. This is the weirdest thing, but I think I started to get a little crush on you back when I came back with long hair. I can't say I'm surprised, but it's still weird.

12. What happened to you made me realize that I need you way more than I thought I did. The scary thing is, I really don't mind it.
