❝ sorry you had to hear all of that. ❞
'all of that' being the beating rosinante endured all those years ago at the hands of doflamingo & the other family members. the former spy can't say he regretted his decision to hide law where he didーhe had to lead doflamingo to that exact spot, to ensure he saw the chest and hopefully (unwittingly) carried law away out of the birdcageーbut that came with the cost of making law a captive audience to the whole thing.
❝ i'm sorry for a lot of things, actually. but i'm not sure in what order i should apologize in. i don't know if i should say 'thank you' for doing what i couldn't, or 'i'm sorry' for making you feel like you were obligated to do any of this. i also kind of want to yank you by your ear until it falls off for putting yourself in that kind of danger, but... i think you deserve to relax. huh, mr. hero? ❞
