[NO LEAVE HIM ALONE AHHHHHHH. he leans back like he's suddenly baffled and it's possible that he is. also now that she's closer she can see that the charm even sort of looks like him. gross.]
It's--[he's about to say it's not like that except hm. well. it sort of is? it's hard to explain but he does care about her very much, more than anything. so. he just remains flustered for a bit.] It's her lucky charm. After I found her again the first time and brought her somewhere safe, she gave it to me to hold on to until I could make it back home.
Yeah...I know. [and now he sounds a little morose, like he's thinking of something, but it's quick to disappear with a smile.] I won't keep her waiting. Not again.
Atta boy. [ she reaches over to nudge him. ] Look, I don't say this often, but I think if anybody is annoyingly optimistic enough to brute force their way to seeing a long lost friend again, it's you. Good luck.
[he lets it happen like he's used to it and his expression grows soft again.]
Thanks. We've always managed to find each other, so this time won't be different. [it can't be.] ...is the memory you want to hold onto a person or a thing?
[he's not expecting her to tell him exactly what it is, but it seems important to ask.]
No way. [even if she's teasing he's being very serious!! so...serious...that he's grinning anyway.] But I mean it. We're at least level one friendship by now, aren't we?
[oh my god my typos. anyway, it's definitely a contest now and this is followed by putting his hands on his cheeks and widening his eyes while more or less doing this.]

[ she says it immediately. no hesitation. and she's not elaborating, though it might be easy to guess what that person is. ]

...your heart won't forget him. Even if your mind does.
no subject
He is my heart. You're right.
no subject
And you're his. [he doesn't know taako that well but why would it not be the same?] So no matter what, you'll still have each other.
no subject
Hah. Yeah. No matter what. [ she murmurs. ] If anything happens, I'll fix it.
no subject
We'll fix it together. [you would think he'd mind his own business but no. lup is now stuck with this.]

Oh yeah? Nosy. [ but it's teasing. she doesn't seem to mind. ]
