[ He's still not sure that he sees what Maya sees, but he accepts her words for now.
Even if they way she describes him feels alien. Heartache? Empathy? He's always been a cold, calculating leader, that he can't imagine those concepts applying to himself. ]
[ claude in this very thread was mourning for catra's pain and wishing he he had protected her??? while also feeling empathy for people mourning byleth?? ]
[ anyway since this is emoshare he will just feel her her belief in him, which is very gross. ]
I think I've gotten to know you two pretty well over these past few weeks. Memory sharing, feelings sharing, and all that.
[ the feeling gets a little stronger. maya is very fond. a little exasperated, but very fond. ]
You know, he said something similar to me about you and I. He also thanked me for defending you, a couple of weeks ago. Back when he was still kind of a jerk.
[ He does have the decency to look a little sheepish when Maya says that. ]
Yeah, I was... really surprised to see Dimitri the way he was when we first arrived. I'd only known him for a year when we were in school, but he was always kind and considerate of others. Basically everything you'd imagine a prince charming to be, so it doesn't surprise me that some of that was still in there.
[ even if claude can't believe in himself -- or to the extent that she can, maybe her belief will help him. it's rock solid ]
[ also, he's a dork, and that is a feeling that comes across through the connection. dimitri, though... despite everything, she can picture it. she's been seeing his moe side longer than most ]
He cares a lot. Maybe even.... too much. [ she says this without a trace of irony, though she is the same way. just without a feral hobo arc ]
The person he is right now... do you think you could ever reconcile?

That's true. It's hard to believe it's just been a few weeks. I'm glad he's got a friend like you. He needs someone looking out for him.

It's not quite like Molly and the others, or Nier and Kainé. Dimitri and I were never close, so we have no reason to start now.
[ Though, to be fair, Claude wasn't close with anyone. His best friend is a lizard. ]
I won't annoy him anymore, if it makes you feel better.
no subject
[ but it is a lot to ask considering their canon points ]
But I think the reason could be.... maybe something good come out of all of this. If you could see eye to eye.... even just a little.

[ Squeezes her shoulder. ]
You and me, for example.
no subject
[ which is to say there is a lot of warmth coming from her right now ]
Of course... but I'm talking about good for you and him, you know.
[ apparently she is not that good for femblems? ]
Your better tomorrow... maybe it could start with that.
