[Law quirks an eyebrow at what Alphen says there. Would his dad have known exactly what to do? Law's not so sure about that. Zephyr was an admirable guy that a lot of people looked up to, but he wasn't some wise, all-knowing leader. He had a lot of flaws. A lot of flaws. Flaws that ruined lives.
But, he lets it pass.]
Nah, man. You've done a lot for me. I can't expect you to always have the perfect answers for me.
You got here with your own strength, Law. I didn't do much.
[ Alphen grits his teeth and quietly clenches his fists tightly. He hates not being able to do more for the people he cares about. Law is important to Alphen too and this is the best he can manage? He just thinks of himself as insufferable and the worst kind of person. Back then he couldn't bear to leave Zephyr's son behind. ]
Using your strength to protect the ones you care about is really what makes a difference. As long as we fight for the right reasons we can keep on moving.
[ Maybe there is no perfect answer but they can build a new answer together. ]

This is the best I can manage for now. We'll work hard to make Zephyr proud.
