i was on his side back in october too, remember

ask me whatever you want to know

[standalonehuman]

Oh I remember, but I still dont understand it.

You dont have to chase after him, keep him calmed down or something, to keep him from getting overtaken by- whatever that was that you could sense?

i don't really know

[darkinferno]

["Dante. You're not responsible for him."]

i didn't say it was my job to help him

i don't think he'd accept any sort of help from me after everything that's happened
