[ She watches Rinku hug herself. Listens, quietly and carefully, as she talks. … There's a lot there and more than a little of it pings Korone's Concern Radar, though she can see so much growth and strength too. Rinku's clearly come a long way since she first arrived in Ellipsa. ]
[ … … … She doesn't quite manage to keep herself from pinching her nose at the comment about MK. Yeah. Yeah, that sounds about right. Unfortunately. ]
First things first, Evangeline-chan is super proud of you and she's right to be. Bravery isn't a lack of fear, and strength isn't about perfection or not asking for help. And you, Rinku-chan … you're brave, and you're strong. You're getting stronger all the time.
… Sometimes people don't value themselves enough. And sometimes people don't realise that they're hurting those they care about by trying to shield them. [ And sometimes! It's both! Sometimes it's both. Korone sighs. ] Have you guys talked about it since then? I had to have a lot of those kinds of conversations with Wash-nii. It's not always easy, but it's worth it.
And, when you said a bunch of stuff happened and you're trying not to worry too much about it … can you tell me more about that?
