[That first reply earns him a dry laugh. Yeah, they really are the fucking same, aren't they?] He's a softhearted idiot, but I'm even more of an idiot for sticking with him all this time. That's just how it goes, isn't it?

[After all, Add was planning to betray him from the very start... but that just never happened, in the end. He couldn't possibly betray someone who'd accept him so earnestly.

And it all still comes back to Leo. Leo, who is definitely, truly, not the type of person to look down on him as he'd believed, and now he's getting the confirmation from Izumi himself. Leo probably likes (liked?) him all along, and what Add thought was sarcasm and mockery was actually just... an honest attempt at a conversation. Wow, who knew?

He laughs again, more awkwardly this time, as he wonder what the hell he should be doing now. It's a bit late to be telling Add not to be a massive bitch, unfortunately.]

... Ah, I just remembered something. This tunnel is a dead end, so we should go back the other way.

[and he just... casually turns himself around, like it's totally normal for him to brag about his amazing navigational skills and then immediately pick the only road that doesn't go anywhere. it's fine. don't question it.]
