[a bit of a sardonic smile as he tries to work through his own logic and roman's. honestly, it makes sense to him that he'd stay away for diluc's protection. his own happiness doesn't matter - it never mattered. all that does matter is mondstadt and everyone in it. and kaeya will do whatever it takes to protect their smiles.
he leans back as well, bumping shoulders with roman.]
But I'm not sure I do get it. [said softly, because, well. he can kinda understand where the guy that left roman is coming from? especially if he did it to protect roman. like honestly fuck you sir for leaving roman so broken about this, but also thank you at the same time because kaeya got to meet this wonderful man?]
The way I see it, everything about you is worth protecting. Say that you and this man had stayed together. You have a wonderful time and make precious memories. What happens if whatever he's trying to protect you from is so overwhelming, gets you when you're not looking, overpowers you with numbers, and you... die?
[he curls an arm over roman, as if the very thought of it is simply too much to handle.]
What are those memories worth if you're not alive in the end? Trust only goes so far when facing who knows what.
