ok but this is the proof that no one in this world deserves bradley

even after he was forced to make a promise that would make him lose his magical powers because nero betrayed him... bradley tells him that he doesn't want to hold long grudges, that he isn't angry — he was worried. he didn't know what happened to nero, and he wants to know +

+ the truth...

and he goes "tell me, nero"

but when nero goes silent and struggles with the question, bradley puts a bright expression on, like "hey, what's with that serious face~" but then nero keeps silent and he. gets worried again

nero please tell him someday,,, bradley is afraid you might actually dislike him and did for so long despite bradley saying you two were like snow and white back then,, bradley won't hold a grudge he's the kindest person alive oh my god i am going to break down

bradley is genuinely worried and wants to know what happened he doesn't even care about himself at this point nor about what happened nor about the betrayal, he doesn't even care about nero leaving and working on a restaurant and compliments his cooking

bradley just wants to be his friend again
