[Emet-Selch is reminded a bit of when he'd had his own falling out with Irhya and Mira. The same thought: I should have known better.
It had turned out to be something of a misunderstanding, and once cleared up, he'd eventually forgiven them for it. But the underlying issues, the truth of them- those remained. Those would always remain.]
If there's anything else, I've yet to find it.
[He can't exactly hold out the hope for something better, or even different. But was that because it didn't exist at all, or that it didn't exist for him?
But though mocking Vanitas for a flaw he shared with him wasn't beyond the Ascian, he just- wasn't in the mood for it now. Crossing his arms, he shrugs, somewhat uncomfortably.]
They're quite convincing- quite convicted when they choose to be. It's not unexpected to fall for it now and again.
