I don't talk to him nearly as much as you do, but...

[He smiles again.]

After we came back again, Francoise and I talked a lot. I'd left her twice to go and die, you know? So I was surprised that she took me back as if nothing had happened, but she only said that if you love someone enough to want to make the world better for them to live in whether you're in it or not, then that's someone worth keeping in your life forever.

[He's quiet for a moment, letting that sink in, then tilts his head a little.]

It's the same for you and Albert, isn't it?
