#alternate title: canadian ephemera compilation

every time Ephemera apologized to Player

my thoughts on this:

no but really, Ephemera’s a really polite guy. Well-mannered and all. When he apologizes, he means it. Something to note is that the 2nd, 3rd and 4th ones are all the same scene where he meets Player in a dream, after he stood them up at the fountain the previous day. Literally apologizing 3 times in one conversation, knowing that the meeting was important to Player. This is the last time they talk for a long time, until Ephemera finds them in the graveyard, and the very first thing he does is apologize again

Aside from just being polite, Ephemera knows he’s wronged Player by not being physically there for them. I wonder how many unspoken apologies he’s said to them after that, when he had to withhold so many truths from them, when he chose to carry their burdensome memories for them, when he got so busy as a leader that he didn’t get to spend much time with them

When Ephemera apologizes to them at the end, they’re not there to hear it. But you know, in his heart, he’ll forever feel that way. Haunted by all the right things he couldn’t do for them, and all the wrong things he did
