Bolded words are people speaking in dragon tongue language

Seto woke up hearing whispers. He felt exhausted but his eyes opened up, seeing Rosani and Ty talking in dragon tongue. He looked away from them, but Ty noticed his eyes were opened.

"How are you feeling, Seto?" Ty asked him. Seto looked at the two, Rosani met his eyes as she was turning towards him, looking worried. Seto pushed against the bed, sitting up slowly.

"Better." He said making Ty smile.

"Good, I'm glad." He said. Seto looked at Rosani and looked down at his lap, saying nothing. Ty stared at the two, confused. "Did I miss something?" Rosano looked at Ty.

"Tobias, can we...or rather can you leave for a bit? I want to talk to Harvey alone." She said. Ty stared at them.

"What happened between you two that I don't know about?" Ty asked them. Rosani pushed gently on Ty's chest, making him take a step back.

"Nothing that is any of your business. Can you please leave?" She asked.

"Alright, but I'm gonna be right outside that door," Ty said before leaving the two alone. Rosani looked at Seto, seeing he had laid back down. She gets up, sitting on the side of Seto's bed.

"How are you feeling?" She asked him.

"Better." He mumbled. Seto frowned a bit.

"You know that's not what I'm talking about." She said to him making Seto's cheeks redden. Seto hesitated before looking at her.

"W-What are you talking about?" He stammered making her blush. She bit her bottom lip staring at him, her heart fluttering when he looked at her. 'Why...I should be mad at him, I shouldn't...feel...like this towards him right now. So why do I?' She thought to himself. Seto looked away from her. "I know..." Her eyes soften.

"Listen, Tobias is gonna be crown as the King soon." She said. Seto looked at her, shocked.

"He took the crown?" He questioned making her smile a bit, nodding.

"Took some convincing, but I'm gonna be helping him till his memory fully returns. The coronation is soon, and...I want you to be there for it." She said making Seto look away from her, pausing. 'I would love to be there...but...' Seto thought. He shakes his head slightly.

"N-No, I can't." He said.

"Why not?" She asked. He hesitated before speaking.

"Y-You know why...R-Rosie." He said. She bit her bottom lip, her hand touching his, Seto pulled his hand away from hers. "I-I don't get how you can just forgive me so easily, I—"

"It wasn't your fault, Harvey. I have forgiven you but...you need to forgive yourself." She said. He shakes his head, feeling tears from behind his eyes, she leans forward a bit towards him. "Harvey, how can you expect for people to see the person you want them to see if you can't let go of the person you aren't?" Seto looked at her, staring at her for a few moments before she saw his eyes water. Her hand touched his arm as he looked down at his lap. "If you don't want to be seen as a dark mage then stop making people see you as one. Moving on is a part of life, I miss Wendy too...but I know all she would want for you is to be happy, so stop being so hard on yourself, you're a great guy, I know you are. And you're friends need you, I...need you. So come on, stop sulking and...be the person I know you are."
