I don't deserve an apology for that, since I'm the one who killed him.
[It's... hard to type it. It's his responsibility, and he knew that, but... it's hard every time that he admits it. He's... pretty sure he was wrong. Takatora may have been naive, but he shouldn't have killed him. Incapacitated him, maybe.]
I guess. It sounds like him, it looks like him... but he doesn't say the same things. He's not the same person. I shouldn't even be saying that it's him, because it's not.
For what it's worth, I don't think you're a terrible person.
Maybe what you did was unforgivable, maybe it was justified, I don't know the situation. But as someone who's done their own share of questionable things, I don't think you're terrible as an individual.

If you expect me to judge you harshly for that, I'm not going to.

[He just... doesn't seem the type.]

The fact that you're still seeing him, however...regardless of what you think you deserve, I think that fact makes the apology remain appropriate.

Thank you. That means a lot to me. More than I think you could know, really.
