( there's some hesitation as he tries to think of how to word it, how to express that feeling that bubbles up. no matter how much it might not make you feel better, it might not bring them back, there's still the fact that someone was taken from you, and isn't it a gut instinct to want to take something from them in return? if not that, a desire to protect the ones who might've been next?
maya certainly didn't do anything wrong to deserve that. no more than rika had, so... he thinks he understands, if only a little bit. )
Anyway, it's fine. You don't need to promise me — I know you'll do your best, Chidouin-san. I'm lucky to be able to be considered a friend by someone like you.
