okay i figured it out after like half an hour of trying lol
spoilers down there!!!!!
do not pick the pen for him
hang out with him in the courtyard
say thay you're in crisis (after some time i realised it's important bcs you're the first to mention that you would like to get to know him better, so he knows he didn't manipulate you)
don't accuse him of manipulating neo
don't say that it's unfair
hope that's useful!! <3
