The plunge comes, the void opening up to them and Esteban stepping through it. The surge as their emotions and thoughts bump into each other; Tidus at Esteban's back, both physically and as a friend. Weariness of the past few days clinging to Tidus, but his determination no less tangible, a rope that connects them both, will pull Esteban back onto the right path if he needs it.

Tidus knows from this much that there's someone - someones - that Esteban wants to find, and it's an emotional, and real, need that Tidus can relate to. Use as an anchor to Esteban, as much as that rope. Thoughts on Esteban; the half-elf will feel Tidus present, a companion in his search, though he still stays by the train, waiting on his return.

But he'll help him forward, to keep his head straight. Ready to help him to look for whoever it is he's searching for.
