[ He breathes quietly, sensing the disbelief in her tone. He's seen it before with Noctis, the self-blame game, and he never let Noctis take the blame, if things weren't his fault.
He steps closer to her, hands reaching out to grab her gently by the shoulders. ]
You are an incredible and an amazing person. You don't strike me to be the type of person who hurts the ones that they love.
[ She's shown him that much at the wedding and she's showing it to him again now, with the quick apologies before they even got started on this subject.
Sure, it rattled his cage to hear that Noctis almost died and he's forever grateful for Ardyn's and Pyra's rescue on him. Noctis wouldn't be alive now if they hadn't done what they did. ]
Noctis is here, alive and breathing. That's what matters the most, is that he's safe.
[ He knows better from the events of Altissia especially, he'd never forget his fear when he'd first spotted Noctis passed out on the altar. He looked dead at first, but he caught signs of life afterwards. ]
This place gave you that item that hurt Noctis, not you. If you hadn't acted quickly and done what you did, Noctis surely would've died from what you told me. But he didn't.
[ He tugs her into a hug then, getting the feeling that she needs it. He'd heard the tremble in her voice earlier too. ]
So no, I don't blame you at all. How can I when you've rescued someone that we both care deeply about? You saved him, Pyra and that's everything to be thanked for.
[ He'd been keeping his tone gentle with her, despite feeling quite rattled still. ]
