Hug Tex and tell him you appreciate the offer but would rather he keep it.

Everything's not okay! you're my best friend and you're going to die!

can't you call a cab or something? or a train? is there any way out of meatcube besides dying?

Oh man that's the first time a protagonist is a du-
>skirt
Every time
Why fractal

Accept the jacket anyway, it's not like he's gonna need it where he's going

>>708096
no!! don't take his shirt!!! he'll lose his gender!

How about a short trip on a leaky boat for Tex? Not like he has much to lose, may as well go on an adventure.

>>708096
my bro..... the quest is called durian BOY

take the jacket. something to cry into if you need it.

Skirt a pretty bold fashion choice for a BOY.
Accept the jacket.

Tell him to come hide in your house. Maybe he can stay there

Maybe you can run away together.

Fuck Tex and then have his baby. Don't say it's impossible cause there is a crazy dog who can tell when people are going to die, anything is possible here!

hug tex
>>708114

Find a parting gift for tex. A copy of the K K metal album, perhaps.

>>708098

Take the jacket, it's pretty cool looking.

Accept the jacket. Accept his offer of a romantic best buddy evening.

>“Hey? Come on, don’t give me the cold shoulder. Everything okay, picante?”
HUG.

...

No, no it's not okay. This isn't fair. It's not what you deserve.

>Skirt a pretty bold fashion choice for a BOY.
emphasis on fashion cause its a great look

So how do people die around here? Are they killed?
If so, harbor and hoard them in your house to prevent their death.

>kiss tex
>fuck tex
>romantic evening
Guts tried kissing Tex once, last summer, on the beach after the line on his fishing rod broke. It was weird, and something they decided not to do again, and not just because of the beak.

Tex pushes the jacket back into his hands, and this time Guts takes it, and when Tex smiles at him he bursts into tears.

“No, it’s not okay,” he manages, and his voice is brittle, “nothing’s okay - you’re my best friend and you’re gonna die - can’t we do something? W-We can - hide you, or get on the train - we can run away -”

Tex is rubbing his back in slow circles. “You know that’s not how it works, pal. At six in the morning, everything resets, and whatever’s supposed to happen will happen. You’ll wake up back in your house, and I … well, I won’t.”

Guts can’t do anything but hiccup into his hands. Tex sighs and leans his head against the mayor’s shoulder. “It’s not Isabelle’s fault or anybody else’s. When your time is up, it’s up.”

He lets Guts sniffle and sob for a little longer, then gives him a firm pat on the back. “Hey, but come on, let’s not waste time, right, picante? There’s a lot of stuff we could do! We could go down to the beach and fish a bit - or we could go back to your place and listen to CDs! You got that new K.K. single, right? We can stay up all night, straight through to six, and we won’t waste a minute of it. We just gotta decide what we want to do!”

take some time, make today special- if there's nothing you can do, the best you can do is start accepting it now and give your best bud a proper sendoff.

Fishing sounds nice so let's start with that.

Go fishing, catch some bugs, check out the museum, cds!

Fishing sounds good

maybe you can get him his favorite food before the day is done

>>708972
alternatively https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RV5jJrv2kjY

Go dig up a Gyroid and beg it and its brethren to use there dark powers to save him. No matter what the horrible price may be.

Fishing sounds like fun.

>It just happens

Aw fuck. Welp, if you're going to hang out maybe do a bit of fishing and then finish the day off at your place, live life to the fullest and all that jazz.

but fishing is two-handed and we need a free hand to hold his

Fishing is a good way to relax. Maybe you can catch something nice together with him and relive old memories.

As for romance, well, you have all day to think about it. But don't let him go with any regrets in your heart.

Abel sisters shop- if youre in there designing clothes you can avoid the time skip, you can stay past closing

we cant save him can we? Fuck. Fucking hell

Maybe just stay at your house together for a while? Play some games or something?

Guts has finally stopped crying. "Let's go fishing," he says.

The walk to the beach is so short from Tex's place. The days are getting shorter, but the sun is still high in the sky. It's one of the only times Guts has ever wished the sun would set slowly.

They sit on the beach and fish one-handed so they can clasp their free hands together. It's easy because nothing's biting.

Dread is puddling in the pit of Guts' stomach, heavy and damp, because every time he looks down, the shadows stretching away from their hands are a little longer. Normally he likes how quiet Tex can be, how even despite how chatty he is he never feels the need to force Guts to talk, but right now that silence feels stifling.

Try to talk to Tex, maybe reminisce about good memories maybe? Or I mean you could try to see if there's a way to save him?

maybe you should play 20 questions with him, or truth or dare even. if this evening's already gonna be bitter, it'll do no harm trying to make it bittersweet.

If Tex is really your best friend, then he's worth fighting for no matter the odds, right? If there's even a little chance that you can save him, you should try.

Ask Tex where his favorite spot in town is, so you can go there.... when he's... gone

tell tex how much you appreciate him

Put Tex on a boat.

Now.

Boat boat boat boat boat.
