"I don't know, it sounds nice for you, actually. To start all over without the pressure of the Crest over your head. Now you can find out who you are without any of that."

Trust Jesper to turn that around on itself in a positive way. He manages to be both jaded and optimistic sometimes. He had a suspicion that Sylvain was told something along those lines, and it makes him think of Matthias. A second chance at life was given to him here, but he lost it. Still a tragedy. He drops his hands down to Sylvain's back and then beneath his thighs, and he simply lifts him.

He isn't as bulky as Sylvain is but he can absolutely carry him the few feet it takes to lay him down on his bed. Jesper follows him and settles on his side next to him, thinking this is far more comfortable if they're going to be talking about something so serious. They might as well be cuddling if Sylvain's going to be feeling like shit about all of this.

"A friend of mine is dead back home, but he was here. I didn't get to see him before he disappeared. We weren't very close, but he was one of us." And to Jesper, one of us means the Crows, family, the most important people. "I'd want him to come back and stay here, to have a better and longer life. The people who love you should want the same for you."
