[Angel knows what she wants to say. She would have given next to anything to promise to Krieg that she wouldn't ever leave him for good. She caught a glimpse during her brief return, and then had picked up on the details once she'd well and truly fought her way back home. They both know, however, how impossible it is to keep a promise like that. For all they knew, she could fall asleep that night and simply not wake up once again.
The thought alone is enough to scare her into squeezing Krieg just a little tighter. Maybe if her grip was solid enough, she wouldn't have to worry about disappearing into the nothing once again.]
I'm sorry. [Her voice is quiet, almost hollow. Krieg might accept the apology, he might even tell her it wasn't her fault, but it still didn't feel like enough for her. No one deserved to go through losing a friend like that, but especially not Krieg.]
I... won't be going anywhere anytime soon. [It feels like she's tempting fate, making a promise like that. She'll just have to cross her fingers and hope she can at least give Krieg that much.]
