[Byleth's blunt nature is usually a welcome delight--he always says what's on his mind, allowing Claude not to worry what he could be hiding.
At the moment though, it's only an embarrassment, unable to keep the flush from rising to his cheeks. Gods above, to have the words he spoke as a smug 18 year old flung back at him years later as a pivotal turning point in someone's life...it might be flattering if he wasn't so mortified.
He tries to hide it in bravado, forcing a chuckle that he hopes sounds natural.] Well, I'm honored that it did.
[He shakes his head, bringing himself back to the present. A welcome distraction.] I'm not quite sure if I have truly convinced myself that I'm not just passed out on the war table and will wake up at any moment. But it is...jarring to say the least. To see faces I didn't expect to ever see again in this life.
