Vax took a moment, took a shallow breath, putting aside his interest in protecting Steph to try and focus on how much his friend's heart still bled for Keyleth. Even if he was being a self-righteous arsehole about it. "It will never be fine. I'm not suggesting that she can be replaced, because... She can't. I know that as well as you."
I'm not asking for you to take someone else into the circle of your arms as your new best friend. I'm not even asking you to decide you like her. All I'm asking for... Is for you to admit she's someone completely different, and not pile all the old hopes and dreams and memories and expectations onto her. Because I honestly don't know how to keep living this life if all I ever do is mourn what's lost."
