Your character is suddenly compelled to announce exactly why their life sucks. Other characters respond with sympathy, shock, pointing and laughing, whatever works.
He's still crying, but he can still laugh a little. His arms relaxed-- just so she wouldn't hurt, but still held her tight. Listening to her.
...So having Death inside, all that time, really had fucked her up. It sort of made sense though, didn't it? How well she adapted to everyone, being... whatever everyone wanted, or needed. He'd had an inkling they both put on smiley faces to ward off anyone's concern, but...
He didn't realise it was so bad.
"...'m sorry. I really am... I... I was jealous, a lot of the time. Because I just wanted to be special to someone. So, I... I can get just wanting attention. I, I dunno which of us handled it better though..."
A little sheepish laugh, but he kept holding her. It's okay, it's okay... they both were total messes, but, at least they had one another, right?
"I... I just want you, Minako. I don't care if you have to figure out who that is... You're still my best friend."
[She clings tight around his neck, burying her face in his shoulder for a time. It's safe here, or it feels that way. Junpei always felt safe.]
I know, and I understand why you were, and I'm sorry. Sorry I wasn't more honest. Sorry I didn't handle it better. Sorry I never told you how important you are and how much I relied on you.
[Why did she never tell him? He needed to know, he deserved to know. She's slightly muffled against his shoulder but she's sure he can hear her. Still she relaxes her clinging.]
You're special to me. [A wet smile.] You're my best friend.
[She pulls him down with a hand on one cheek, to kiss the other one.]
Y-you had enough going on... dealing with my whining was like, the least important thing you hadta worry about.
[He'd do his best to keep her safe... Even as his cheeks reddened, his own eyes clenched shut. Important... relied on...
God. He wished he could've seen that, back then. He was so desperate something big, he missed the more subtle clues. That was on him and his own immaturity.]
Y-you're really, really special to me too...
[That kiss surprised him, and he let out of a breath, a soft, sheepish laugh escaping him.]
T-thanks Minako... [...does uh, he kiss her back? Is another hug okay?]
