[Noel doesn't react much while Lightning goes on, only glancing off with a tired look in his eyes. Things were so much simpler with Serah here, she really was a glue that kept them all together. He frowns.]

I'm guessing she'd want us to keep on keeping on, wouldn't she. Holding it all together.

[His coffee stops boiling and Noel blows on it to take a careful taste.]

I'm angry at Snow. For being angry. I know that's wrong, but I can't help it. I don't want him hurting himself more than he already is. [And there's nothing Noel can do until Snow is ready to come back.]

I'm worried about you. You've lost enough people that have been important to you, here. [But how is he supposed to fix something like that? He can't.]

The only thing I can help is making Yeul happy and I'm worried I'm going to screw that up too.
