he shakes his head and places a hand on his hip now that he's satisfied that everything seems to be in place. lavi saw this face while he was a simple shadowman, but now, face-to-face like this, he wants to make sure he remembers it like this. ]

Good; I'm fond of Nishi. I'm glad that I get to leave this place with him. Not that there's anything wrong with Char, of course. I just didn't get to know Char very well.
