[That's true. He can agree with that, even if making friends is still a new and weird thing for him. Comes with the territory of being a genius who's used to being picked on and eventually closing off from most people.]

Maybe. But what do you do when those people leave?

[immobileyes]

[ If Mary can do it after one hundred years of solitude, you can become a friendship master, Hiro. ]

Try to find them again. I don't want to think I'll never see them ever again.

[ It's too painful. ]

[zerotohiro]

So...that means you don't really believe all of the worlds have been destroyed?

[There's a point. But it's a...sweet sentiment, he thinks, even if it's a tiny bit surprising.]

[immobileyes]

Not... exactly. If they can keep bringing people from worlds that they said were already destroyed... o-or even if they were destroyed, I want to believe there's some way to bring them back.

[ She can't let herself think that her world is gone entirely, for good, every single person she'd cared about just... gone, and Mary the only one they'd chosen to extricate. ]

[zerotohiro]

...I'm going to find a way to figure it all out. I don't believe that everything's totally gone either. [Considering Tadashi was here waiting for him.] I've lost a couple of things recently that I managed to get back. There's always a way.

[immobileyes]

... Yeah. I want to see everyone again.

[ BEING THE ONLY ONE FROM HER WORLD IS LONELY. ]

S-so I'll help!

[zerotohiro]

It might be pretty scary at first. [Or throughout the whole thing, who knows.] Are you sure?

[immobileyes]

Yeah. [ Even though she doesn't like being scared-- ] I want to do my best, even if things get scary. If it's for my friends... I can do it.

[zerotohiro]

[There's a grin.] I knew I could count on you. I'm not going to let anything bad happen to you while we're both here, okay? I'll figure something out and make sure we're safe.

[immobileyes]

... Thanks, Hiro. You're really nice.

[ Already looking out for her!! She's still not used to humans being so kind so readily... ]

[zerotohiro]

I wouldn't call it that...I'm just doing what I can while I'm here. But don't mention it.
