[ gently: ] Well-- I mean, that's not really what I was saying. But it does seem you're used to playing the part of a villain. Or maybe it's just me.

If you could go back, would you change your decision?

[ He's quiet a while. ]

I don't know. [ ... ] I think I would, but not because I regret what happened to Randolph.

But it set off a chain of events that ended up down a path I didn't want.

[productionhell]

What was the path you wanted?

[midway]

One where the people I care about didn't die.

[productionhell]

.... I understand.

Well, Claude, I'm not going to say I agree with your choices, but... it doesn't make you irredeemable in my eyes. I was going to say that you can't change the past... but the angels have said that if you are redeemed, you can choose your point in the timeline to return. So. Things can change, and you can as well.

I already killed Zhongli for the apple, Charlie.

Knowing that I could've just returned to a point before she died is just salt in the wound.

[productionhell]

.... I know. But you still can. And Zhongli can return to life, so... the normal rules are a bit out of whack.

My point is... there's still time to turn things in your favor.

[ A pause before he smiles. ]

Well, that much I know. I'd never have it any other way.
