[It's sometime much later after the meme wedding. Here is Mandricardo, who is already giving off waves of guilt, nervousness, and sadness when he approaches Adora.]
[He sees her, stiffens for a moment, before giving a low bow, keeping himself low without straightening himself up.]
But I do. I really hurt you and Catra, and...I would never do that. I didn't do it to be a joke, or to deride you. I just...appreciate that you're always there for each other. Marriage or not, you and her get along so well...and I really support that, you know?

Adora...I'm really, really sorry about earlier.

Oh no.
Adora immediately lifts her hands when he bows, in a "please, you don't have to" sort of gesture.]
Hey--Mandricardo! It's okay, seriously. You don't have to worry so much!
[She feels sincere, too--at this point, she mostly is worried about him, with a slight ping of discomfort when she thinks back to that "wedding".]

... Thanks. Seriously.
[She rubs the back of her head.]
You don't seem like the kind of guy who would make fun of people, so I assumed it was a weird thing you just kinda had to do.
I... uh... I didn't realize that you were rooting for us like that. [Embarrassed but also extremely pleased!!!!]
no subject
Um. Well. You're so happy together...
[There's a burst of appreciation.]
So you just can't help it, you know? I know a lot of people would feel the same.
no subject
Well... thanks. It's kind of, uh. Well. That's pretty embarrassing, but I can't really say I'm mad at it anyway.
But anyway! A lot's been going on lately... you doing okay?
GENTLY CRIES AT THIS
[A shrug.]
I'm just...trying to make sure everyone else is okay, honestly.

That's kinda why I feel like I need to check. You... definitely put yourself last in a lot of ways, huh?
