"What about Loki?" Katsuya hates everything in this moment. His home, the demons. Himself. He pulls Verity forward, wrapping his arms around her shoulders. Hold her close.

"Verity. You could never ruin our friendship. Well, okay don't tell me I know I can't promise that. But you'd have to fucking try really hard to." He's talking into her shoulder.

"I care about you so much. You don't even know. God I'm so sorry Verity. If I'd known..." He's choking up, pulling her tighter. The important thing is all of this? Totally true.
