Loneliness didn't matter to him, Mithos thought...not as long as he would one day--very soon--revive Martel. He didn't need anyone else, not even Genis.
Nobody at all.
He'd always been alone with Martel, anyway.
Needs and wants didn't have to be the same thing, though. He didn't need Genis, but to have a kindred soul beside him, someone who shared the same thoughts, feelings, and perspective, was something he might have always wanted.
And Genis had to feel the same way. If he hadn't needed Mithos and Cruxis' facilities, he had always wanted a true, half-elf friend.
Yes...it wouldn't matter if Genis became strong enough that he didn't need Mithos, since he would never want to lose that connection.
He held Genis' hand in a firm, confident grip. "That really means a lot to me," he said honestly, accompanied by a pleased smile. "Don't worry, you'll see how convenient it is. It's really nothing frightening! And I'll be here with here," he added as reassurance.
