[ She laughs softly. ]

Human bodies can be a bit frail. Would you like something as a reward?

[hasteful]

[ . . . ]

Is this a trick question? Why wouldn't I want a reward?

[disingenuous]

[ That answers one question for her. ]

Pick something you want that I can give you.

[hasteful]

[?????]

Eh...? Something I want...?

[???????????????

buzen has never asked anyone for anything in his LIFE]

[disingenuous]

This is your next lesson in how to be human.

[ Not selfless enough to not want a reward but not not selfless enough to ask for something. ]

Think about something you want.

[hasteful]

[ . . . . . . . his brow furrows he's having such a hard time with this]

... I don't know if it's anything you can give me, Ro-san...

If I had to ask you for something, it might be... Mm... Eh... That's not really my style...

[disingenuous]

It doesn't have to be now. It doesn't have to be from me. In general, then.

[ She's not fussed. ]

Ruminate on it for a while.

[hasteful]

[he laughs a bit at that. ruminate???? please he's the type to reach quick judgments more than anything, which is why he'll just say - ]

All I could want from you is your company, and as much of your honesty as you're willing to share. If you feel like you can rely on me, then that's enough to make me happy.

My want is just that I don't want to be forgotten.

[disingenuous]

[ She was giving him options, but those are simple enough wants. ]

I'll rely on you. I won't forget you.

[ Is that really enough? ]

[hasteful]

[nods!]

Then... I can't really think to ask for anything else. That already means everything to me.

Thank you, Ro-san. I appreciate it.
