[ She wouldn't call that side of him disgusting. If anything, it makes him more... relatable, in a way, to know that he's not completely perfect. ] What I saw... I don't think it's anything to be ashamed of.
[ Quietly, she she draws away from him and settles with sitting back on her heels. ] If anything, I'm honored that I've gotten to know a little bit more about you. [ Well, maybe not a lot. But she did gleam especially how deeply his guilt goes.
She smiles at him. Smiles, despite having moments ago offered to take his place to be the one killed. ] And you say that you don't like passing your problems to others but...ah--
[ Her smile turns tired. ] Will you at least ask for help? Can you do that? If not me, then someone who you truly trust here.
Because whoever they are-- if I can speak for them-- they would want to know. [ She would want to know, but then again. She doesn't know exactly what he thinks of her, or how much he trusts her. He seems so--... unhappy right now, as if she's chosen the wrong outcome, and she can't help but wonder if she's pushed him away. The thought of that is... saddening, because she likes the friendship they have. She likes him. She believes they share a lot of the same beliefs. But if it means protecting him and pestering him, she has no choice.
But then there's a shake of her head. ] They would want to be there when you are in pain. That's what happens when you become close to others, and if you push them away, then... then you're only making more problems for yourself.
