[The silence is nice, welcome after so much pushing. It might have taken weeks for him to really talk about it but now that he has there is a weight lifted from his shoulders. It's easier to step back and look at things objectively once he's told it, explained what happened and, in the telling, realized how skewed his own perceptions had become. Just having Ignis beside him again after so long without him is enough to ease his worries for a time.
For a moment Gladio doesn't understand what Ignis means. Then he sighs, squeezing his hand, turning his face in against hit friend's shoulder. What can he say to that? How does he explain that it's not Ignis' fault without telling him- Without explaining things that will only drive him away again.
Things he must keep to himself.]
You won't... [He wishes he sounded more confident in it though.] Things are already different.
