Switch-tracking. Two different conversations. They heavily intersect, but there's a completely different thing on Radar's mind than what César meant.
César listens quietly as the words pour out of Radar's mouth. He accepts them. They come from Radar's heart and soul.
When Radar breaks off his words, César breathes himself. Then he reaches over to rest a steadying hand on Radar's shoulder. His expression and voice are both kind.
"Of course it matters. I never said it didn't. My only point is that we can comfort after the hurt. It's how Magne and I fell in love."
... Radar doesn't need to know he's using a fanfic trope to explain his view.
