Alb stays silent for a moment, then sighs.

"I didn't catch up with you guys earlier because..... well, I didn't know what to do. When they blamed Chara for what happened to Life, I... I was angry. I didn't want to help you. Leaving my friends is wrong, but that's what I did. I'm sorry."

Nick looked him in the eyes, and put a hand on his shoulder.

"We're living in angry, confusing times." Nick said reasurringly. "The only thing that matters is doing the right thing. Even when it's hard."

Nick was facing away from Frisk and Chara, so they wouldn't see it, but for a brief instant, a single nanosecond, a shadow - almost like...... guilt? - lingered in his eyes. Alb didn't notice this, perhaps being too caught up in his own guilt to see.
