[There was no turning back now after coming this far, Denji dead set on his path to restore Aki from the afterlife by whatever means available. This was the closest chance he's had so far since making it his mission and wouldn’t squander it. Eustace’s less than unenthusiastic response causes the boy to grit his teeth in frustration as he stands upon the precipice of the material planes drawing deathly close to the rift in question. Bringing his hands to each side of his face, Denji shouts out as loud as he's physically capable over the roaring torrents of wind that threaten to sweep him inside the tear itself.]
Yo, Aki!! It’s me Denji I’ve come to save you!!
[Met with nothing but silence but refused to give up quite yet, trying again as he continues his valiant efforts as he admits the guilt which had been weighing him down for quite some time in hopes that might do the trick.]
I didn't want to kill you but you left me no choice!! I'm sorry…I'm fucking sorry alright?! So just come back and things can be like they used to!! I'll make dinner, light your smokes for ya. I'll do whatever the hell you want just come back!!
[Nothing; Looking to the skies above as tears threaten to spill down the side of his cheeks, falling defeatedly to his knees with his head hung low. If a rift between the afterlife and the real world couldn't bring him back then what otherworldly power could? Was he truly destined to never see his friend again after taking his life? Despair plaguing his rational thinking as his hands thread through the dirt below trying to cling to his dream of seeing Aki’s smiling face just one more time.]
[Perhaps another person would have been better for this. Someone who could have cheered him on or gave him better, warm comfort. Eustace only quietly watches as Denji shouts into the rift, and really...even if he doesn't approve, that doesn't mean he can't blame him for trying. Had he been younger, when his own tragedies were still fresh, he probably would have done the same.
So after Denji has fallen, he slowly steps up to him and does offer him any words. After all, what can he say? Cheer up, try again later?
No, those are false hopes and only works if said by the right person—and he's not that. Instead, Eustace just reaches down and rests his hand on top of Denji's head, giving him a small but comforting pat.]
