For Yuuri it feels like time just slows down and he's living long stretches of time between each loud beat of his heart.] You... Love me? [The first feeling is warm. Even before it becomes uncomprehending. It just feels good to hear from Conrad who has always been there for him. Who always caught him when he fell—literally and figuratively. It feels right in a way he wasn't expecting and he's not even aware of the smile that takes over his lips or the light in his eyes.

Why me? [He pushes himself up more, to look down at his protector in earnest.] Conrad, I failed you! I haven't gotten us home. I didn't protect you from Carmen or Diva. I hurt Wolfram. I was with Josh, and you didn't like him! I didn't even know you... [That you loved him.
His voice gets louder, unsteady with all the emotions building and swirling around inside him.] You shouldn't love me! You shouldn't even like me!
