[ He wouldn’t say it if he didn’t mean it, after all. Even for all that he likes to tease, he’s honest to a fault most of the time. ]
Alisaie said the same, and I’ll say to you what I said to her: no one expects to fall in love. It’s just happens. But I am glad that the two of you have each other in this place, especially given what we’ve all gone through to get here, and what we’re going through now.
[ Those three little words should not come out so meek, so frightened, and X’rhun reaches over to again rest his hand on Prompto’s shoulder. ]
You must know by now as well as I how much of a fighter Alisaie is. She’ll return to us.
[ X'rhun voices what Prompto has been telling himself over and over again, words that were more important to him than anything else right now.

That flame of hope is all that has kept him going since she last slipped from consciousness, and hearing someone else talk about it makes it feel less like a lost hope. She would return to them. She had to. That's the only outcome Prompto can let himself entertain, as long as there is still hope for the cure.

[ As impossible as that sounds. ]
