"You will be. ‘May not be so easy to get to that point, but…" He smiled sheepishly. "Well, look at me I suppose. I got out of my literal hell, and I’ve recovered quite nicely from a lot of aftermath… And I’m a trainer once more."
He looked away for a second, stewing thoughts over before he looked back to the redhead boy. “If you want, Silver, I’ll help. You don’t have to be alone in this.” He murmured.
“I’d really like that.” he admitted, reaching out and even though he was trembling in fear he took Red’s hand, squeezing it gently. “Th-thank you, Senpai.” he added quietly.
For the first time in a while, this tragic redhead had hope. That maybe, just maybe he could escape this. That he could be a trainer once more. “Senpai… Did you ever suffer death in your loops and resets?” he asked hesitantly.
