[ She spends so much of her life comforting others about how awful her life is that it's second nature. Isn't that the very least she can do, comfort them? ]
[ If she had any idea how much thought he'd put into a simple "no thanks" she'd be oddly touched again. What he sees as weak or easy or what have you, she sees as thoughtful and considerate and smart. Especially after her disastrous discussion with Katsuki in which she had to hear him diminish himself for not being willing to go back into that room at the research center again, it's refreshing that someone would choose to head off that discomfort at the pass. Part of the reason she's sort of asked about his interest or lack thereof is thinking it would be no big deal, but if it would be? All the more reason to avoid it. She doesn't want to hurt anyone worse than she already is (and has, and will). ]
[ Distance isn't easy. Saying no despite it not being all that clear that you want to (or so she gathers, if part of him hadn't been open to it that no would have been much more quickly spoken) isn't easy. What's easy is saying "sure, I can handle that, no problem" and then getting in over your head. Ask her how she knows. ]
[ Anyway, she's glad her lighter joke seemed to assuage whatever serious thoughts he was having. ]
Truly a heroic sacrifice. I'm sure someone will make a shrine in your honor sooner or later.
[ Anyway. ]
Are you one of those that would prefer a gentle descent towards the ground, or can I do a bit of a controlled dive? Even though there's no real reason to, I find it fun. No harm would come to you or our cargo, I solemnly swear.
