No matter what. I don't know how you knew about my mom, but... you know some shit I probably don't wanna know you know, you know? But you tell the best stories, an' you got a brain the size of the planet in that head of yours.

[He takes Gentaro's hand in his and holds it for a few warm moments.]

And me? It's harder to lie, so I just lay it all out there. But I didn't tell you what I was worried about 'n scared about any more than you told me, so... my bad.

[Lifting Gentaro's hand, he pulls it to his chest.]

I don't know a whole lot sometimes, but I do know that I wanna be yours. Even if I'm scared you're gonna wake up one day and realize you got better things to do than me. An' hell, if you want me to stop gamblin' so much, I'll try. I'm promisin' right now, I will never bet this ring, or my wedding ring, or our home, or our cats, or my life ever again.

[A grin chases the tail end of that.]
