[Every now and then I remember TR is actually pretty depressing. But that makes sense.
"Let him try. He'll be weakened. And my son here, Nico—well, he's not much now, I'll grant you. It would've been better if Bianca had lived. But give him four more years of training. We can hold out that long, surely. Nico will turn sixteen, as the prophecy says, and then he will make the decision that will save the world. And I will be king of the gods."
Either him or Bianca. And his father had made his preference very clear at the time. Things have improved, slightly, since then, but it's hard to shake that off. He wonders why Okita solely chose to use Kashuu and leave Yasusada back when they were the same.
It's why he's quiet.]
So the battle with Kashuu was pretty much his last chance, and you never got to be by his side out there on top of losing someone important to you. Kind of a tragic end.
