Guess we match then - because I think you're pretty suited to being a god, too. Taka wouldn't even dream of following anyone else, after all.
... I'm really glad - that you figured out what you were looking for, the answers you wanted. You'll do great in whatever world you all get out of this, I'm sure.
[moe!! they're both moe. senri understands 200% why they get along and the question manages to make him laugh - ]
Are you kidding? I've been spoiled rotten.
[ . . . ]
It hasn't been all easy - and... people have protected me from a lot of difficult things, so I have to do everything I can to give back to them but....
A pretty positive outlook, Senri. [He's pleased with that though.] Glad to hear it hasn't all been that bad though. If you can get something else out of this game besides your wish, doesn't that make it a little better? Maybe I'm the one being optimistic now.
Optimism, in the right doses, never hurt anyone, I don't think.
[and he tilts his head]
... I know my experience isn't everyone else's, and I've struggled a lot in the game too. But when I think about all the people that I've gotten to meet... I still wouldn't trade it for anything.
Being able to go home with Taka like we are - that's already more than I ever could've asked for.
[he says that automatically, expression turning so soft it's disgusting]
... I know that I can't talk to him or understand him as easily as you do - but that's not going to stop me from trying to learn. I want to make him happy every single day.
If we can't get our wishes here, we'll just have to try harder to get them back home. I'll do everything to make that happen.
Good. [He's always high-key concerned about Taka's happiness.] I don't know if it's really about understanding or talking to people easily. It's more like...like effort? If someone puts effort into trying, it's worth it.
...Taka was the first person besides the other gods or the other guardians back home to talk to me in 300 years. I'm not sure what I was expecting and I don't know if I was what he was expecting either. But he kept coming back and trying. Trying hard is never a bad plan.
Yeah! Yeah, that's me! [HE IS SUDDENLY VERY EXCITED.] That's what I used to do before the ascension...I controlled winters and everything. But...not everybody believed in me. People think the snow and ice come from the earth instead of the magic behind it.
[And so, Jack Frost was never acknowledged by people for literally 300 years.] Nobody could hear or see me until I came here.
I'll tell more people when Taka and I get back! It's not really in our culture but that's fine, introducing new things to people is what I'm good at! Even if you're here now, your hard work should still get credit.

...thanks. I'm hoping you're right. Do you think you're getting everything you needed out of this?
[Needed. Not wanted.]

Sorry - 300 years?

My name is Jack Frost. [Taka had recognized the name, though he's not sure Senri will.] I've been around for a while.

[WHAT THE FLIP]
Jack Frost like - in all the songs and stories Jack Frost? [senri's a western theater actor he's got this] Ahh, all the snow makes sense!

It took a while to find them, but I think they're permanent. It's more than I could've asked for.

It's sort of like - when you see or experience something that's very cute, or endearing? Then you say 'moe'!
Like Taka. Taka gets moe, when he's not being moody!
