Gunvolt smiled, even despite Ky's refusal.

"Don't get the wrong idea, but... that weapon's a lot more fitting for you. You're really more of a knight in shining armor type at your core anyway."

It's delivered with a respectful sincerity, even despite the fact it would be easy to take it as a tease or a dig. But that wasn't like Gunvolt toward someone he actually respected as much as Ky. He paused loading the cartridges for a moment, looking forward and into the distance.

"...Not gonna lie. There's a lot of pressure right now. I mean, fighting Heralds isn't new by this point... but... this is the last one. The big one. I mean, we always knew what the price of failure would be, but... I... can't even really imagine what victory will be like."

Gunvolt settled back in his seat, and finished loading the magazine before setting it aside.

"What the world will look like... and our places in it. There'll always be work to do, but... I'm having a lot of trouble imagining what comes next."
