[there's a matching flare of anger - not directed at luca, but he shakes his head.]
No. I found that out today. She kept everything vague when she told me and - I still need to figure out what to do with that information. I'm not sure how much she's still keeping from me.
[everything is complicated and so many people lie and mineo is just trying to figure out how to make heads or tails of any of it.]
... but I know I failed you. In a lot of different ways, probably.
[He's still angry. He's probably going to be angry for a long, long time. But if he's learned anything here, it's that the universe will keep shitting on him without respite and sometimes he needs to just let it go.]
I'm not surprised she kept it vague, that sounds like her.
[He knows what else he needs to say, but he hates having to say it. He's rubbing at his forehead as he says it though.]
...I shouldn't blame you for that. No, I don't blame you. It's not your fault.
[He's still feeling disappointed, but it really isn't Mineo's fault, and holding onto that anger probably isn't healthy.]
I'd accept it if you did. And even if you don't, I know that I've fucked up here - in a lot of different places. This whole situation is messed up, and I -
Wishing that we didn't have to deal with it is already pretty gone, but I do want to do right by you, Luca-san. And I get it if that means that you just don't want to talk to me anymore, or anything like that.
I just want to do better, but I know it's also up to me to figure out what that means. It's just that if there's anything I can do for you.... I hope that you'll let me know.

[He's tempted to flick Mineo's forehead, but he holds off on it for now. It really is hard for him to stay mad when Mineo is around.]
You can do better by helping everyone get out of here, for starters.

... thanks. [he has to say that much] For - not walking away. We don't have that much time but I'm really glad I get a little bit more with you.
[even if that feels selfish to say]
But - of course. That's the goal. Everyone's wishes, everyone out.
