...Shishimaru-kun. You've asked me why I would want someone like you by my side, and I told you it's because your view point is interesting. I'm afraid I haven't been entirely honest with you. I believe you would also benefit from being able to grow outside of what you've already become. I could help you with that.
Likewise, I believe we need people like you in our midsts.
I think it can do incredible things to a person. [The tone's gentle, but yeah. Sorry that Taka's getting slammed with three gods that are telling him to feel things oh my god.] Where words and money and power can't reach, growth can and it can provide opportunities previously just out of reach.
No. [There's a pause as they seem to give Taka another considering glance.]
You remind me of someone I once knew. They may have felt the same way once, but I often wonder if it's because she was the one who changed all of us instead. [They cup their chin in their hand, silent for another moment.]
Sometimes you change, and sometimes you're the one starting the change. The world needs both kinds.
Yes. [That seems to be all that can be said though.] Someone very important to me before all of this. Perhaps it doesn't matter now that I've chosen this.
That's also a very complex question, Shishimaru-kun. [They bow their head, uncertain of how to proceed. The overexcited act has dropped now that they're onto a more serious subject. How much regret does Taka have from opening this conversation?]
Sometimes I wish I'd given it more thought than I did.
That's perhaps another story for another time. [Not necessarily because they can't say it, they also just don't really want to talk about it. Instead, they shift again, brightening up a bit.]
For now, it is my duty to help you throughout this game even if you haven't aligned yourself with me.

Help how?
