[ unlike tia who seems to be trapped in the depths of her regrets, sabo manages to break free ( heads ). maybe it's because there's only one regret that sabo has ever truly experienced in his life that can last the test of time and everything that he could push aside for what's important in the here and now. it's a regret, guilt, and the single thing that can set him off in either direction so easily. the last week he had been alive, he was shut in a dark room to face these demons yet again.
( he can't keep torturing himself. he can't keep guessing if things would have changed if he were there. he can't—he can't. )
and while it would have been ideal that sabo try to break tia free from the regrets that plague her, sabo doesn't get that chance. he's still unsteady on his feet and his mind is still reeling shaking off the visions—it's a sad state to be in and one that's appropriately capitalized on. sabo is unable to do anything but take the full brunt of the attack ( 3 ), the blade cutting deep into his flesh. they were dead, how is this even fair???
but don't think that sabo is just going to collapse onto the ground and let his injuries dictate his actions. oh no, he'll take a moment to process the pain before lashing out at the man who had struck him by first reaching to grab for the blade with one hand and then swinging his metal pipe with the other ( 13 ). look, he didn't get to be who he is if he fell over to any ol' injury. ]
