[ She laughs, but it's devoid of any mirth. ]

Yeah, it really sucks. He's said some things to me... and it should've raised some red flags, but I decided to trust him. I...

[ She throws her hands up. ]

Well, whatever! He's going to be smote, so whatever.

[selfimmolates]

... You and Yu just need to. Give each other a hug or something.

[symphonise]

[ That is perhaps the most concerning and cursed thing Ray has said to Nonon to date that of course she's compelled to say: ]

Maybe I should.

[ But worry does creep into her voice, and her brows crease. ]

These last two trials have been especially rough on him.

[selfimmolates]

Between Ai's death and Majima cutting off his finger, he's probably pretty traumatized right now, yeah.

[symphonise]

[ She sighs. ]

He cares too much.

[ She doesn't say it like it's the worst thing, but... you know. It's not hard to see he's struggling. ]

[selfimmolates]

Yeah, basically.

[symphonise]

[ She crosses her arms and stares him down even though he's taller than she is. ]

And how are you holding up?

[selfimmolates]

I didn't get cursed, and none of my friends so far secretly turned out to be serial killers, so not too bad?

[symphonise]

[ That actually gets something like a genuine laugh out of her.

She clasps her hands behind her back. ]

You showed a couple of your cards today. I'm sure you already know people will flock to you for one reason or another. Still not too bad?

[selfimmolates]

I'll find a way to handle it.

[symphonise]

I know you can. I don't doubt your capabilities. Age is only a number, but...

[ She's a little worried. Just a tiny bit. ]

You also care a lot.

[selfimmolates]

What.

[symphonise]

I didn't stutter. You might not care about everyone in the way that the bowl cut does, but the things you do care about?

You care deeply.

[ She raises her eyebrows at him. Is she wrong? ]

[selfimmolates]

[uggggh]

... Shut up.

[symphonise]

[ The look in her eyes softens for a moment. ]

Okay.

[ Tonight, she gives him a break. ]
