[Isn't he? He's made much more cruel decisions at the drop of a hat before. He'd forced Luke to turn his blade on Tear in Chesedonia, just because it had been funny at the time. He'd resolved to join his replica's ridiculous crew to fight Van in the end and then changed his mind seconds later, just because Luke had said one especially stupid thing. Dying just to leave a cruel scar on Luke's heart? Years ago, he might have done it.
But that was then, and this is now. And even if Guy hadn't known him that well at the time, the transparency of his behaviour is bothersome.
Still, he can't bring himself to share the truth. Not all of it.]
Fine, then. The reason for it is much more simple- he was going to die, and I could save him. I never intended to martyr myself for him, or anything so idiotic and noble. I assumed my intervention would mean we both survived. I was wrong.
