[the apology in return gets buzen's eyes to widen - in surprise and concern both. automatically, he starts shaking his head as if trying to deny the apology]
Moni-chan, you can't—
No, I... [his expression looks so complicated and confused. he's lost all over again] ... I don't feel like a good person. I don't want you to say sorry to me.
[firmly. she makes to look at him straight in the eyes as she says this.]
You have more guts than the majority of us ever will. Not everyone would be willing to right a wrong when it means shooting themselves in the foot, you know?
Don't beat up yourself too hard for someone else's choice, okay? It's fine to take responsibility for your teammate as a group, but it's not like you decided on this together.

... you're really kind, Moni-chan. I still want to say sorry even more, but... thanks, too.
I hope that I can feel like I've earned these words from you. I promise I'll keep working even harder than this.

I don't know about beating myself up but... I'll at least try not to bring everyone down. I still want to try to make up for it, but—
... yeah. I know everyone's being really kind. I don't want to ignore that.
