I'm...not good at that part. The whole 'grieving' thing. Even when Dad died, I think I only cried that night and started my training to be an exorcist the next day. I don't know what I'd do with myself if I just sat here sad for days and days.

I... do understand, and I too only desire to tear this system apart. I shall stand beside you, Rin, however way I must.

[He will shounen his way through this grief.]
Then I can see Yukio again and punch him for doing something so stupid.

[ Alphinaud gets it... but like... ]
To him, he wanted you to live more than anything.
