I tried, but...[...] I felt bad. His leader really didn't want to talk about it, so I just changed the subject.

[sometimes you care more about people's feelings than bullying them for answers.]

[... A slow nod, sympathetic. She 100% gets that.]

They were really upset by what happened, weren't they?

Yeah. We were having a good conversation before that, but the minute I asked everything changed. I don't want to push them at all.

[Poor mystery leader they are both talking around despite knowing their identity.]

If there's something we ought to know, we'll find out later. I'm sure they appreciated your thoughtfulness, Sora-san.

Maybe. I dunno...I might've messed up and made them think I really only went to check on them for information. [he's so worried about upsetting mystery-leader.] But you're right. If it's something for later, we'll learn when we're supposed to.

...I just hope it's not too late.

I think... if they truly had a problem with what you said to them, they would have let you know. [Mystery-leader can stand up for themselves!! Though, haha. Everything else is fine.] ... It won't be. They wouldn't leave us to our own devices if we were running out of time, right?

That's true, too. [...a frown follows.] It might not even be their choice if they don't know things that can help us. You know? Like we're responsible for helping them remember and that's why the nova's important. So we have to work harder.

... Mm, I know. The leaders are doing everything they can for our sakes, so... we ought to do the same. Once back on my feet, I'll work twice as hard.

[god i hate you.]

Don't rush yourself, okay? You had a lot happen in a short amount of time. I think Swan will be okay if you take some time to rest.
