... we can talk about it... I'll talk to the other people, and see what we can organize. I don't want you to feel like you're forced into it either - I want to make sure that you're happy. I want all the gods to be happy, just as much as I want as many people to get their wishes as possible - without being reckless, or risking anyone's safety.
[but that's just senri being greedy, chasing after a happily ever after that doesn't exist, but he'll at least pretend it does until he can't anymore]
But... it's okay to not be perfect, and it's okay to make mistakes. People might get mad for a little bit, but they'll - I told Bambi this too... [and he just offers up a smile] But they'll come back together, apologize, and everyone can still be friends.
I do believe you mean well... I still believe in you - and I'll be really excited for you to be able to learn to believe in yourself. Other people see something in you for a reason. I promise their faith isn't mistaken.
Thank you, Senri. It really does mean so much to me. More than I can really express properly. I know I haven't done a good job of earning anyone's confidence, but...I'll do my best not to let you down anymore.
[In a smaller voice:]
I believe in what you've told me. What Ishikirimaru has assured me. And what Luke has always seen, even when I can't.
[ . . . and senri is just sighing quietly, running a hand through his hair]
... I don't know. I think you've done well. I'm... you know, I've been telling people that I'm pretty easy. I can go to a lot of gods - but I think that's why it's even more important that the people who can't make connections with people.
You got both Ray-kun and Taka's attention and respect, just by being you. Same with Sasuke.
Give yourself a little more credit, day by day. I'm sure you can do it. It's all about us changing, right?

I suppose...I do tend to help others with their own development without leaving much time for myself.
[He looks down at his feet, feeling a little ashamed.]
I'll have to catch up.
