Oliver
The words said to him were not ones Oliver ever expected to hear. It never occurred to him that Remi would want to know something like that nor had he really tried to actually focus on what made him so upset. Pausing, Oliver could only give the other man silence. When he thought about it, it felt extremely narcissistic of him to be so upset.
Eventually, he found something that seemed about right. What felt to him like the reason why he had formed such a bond with Remi. "It's... when I first arrived, you and Sunjata were the ones to help me and when you don't really have any memories of friends or anything... I didn't have much of anything to compare it to... I guess I just trusted you? And I really looked up to you." His voice was quiet, hoping that nobody around them was listening in. It was embarrassing and pitiful of him and for once, he was glad that Remi couldn't feel his emotions. "I guess when you said you didn't want to know anything about me nor to have any future with me I assumed that meant you didn't care about me at all... and I- I don't know." Except he did know. He knew exactly what he could've said next, but wasn't ready.
All of this just made him feel... bad. The more he thought about it, the more he regretted his past actions. How immature he had been and that he had simply overreacted over what happened with Remi. "I've made a lot of mistakes lately, a shit ton. When we last spoke, I had just been cursed and that combined with everything else... I guess I just overreacted." His voice was quiet and all he could do was keep his eyes away from Remi's cold stare, hoping it would prevent him from feeling too overwhelmed.

My heart beating, my soul breathing,
I found my life when I laid it down,
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I found my life when I laid it down,
Upward falling, spirit soaring
