I think you can be useful in a lot of ways, Nanase-kun.

You just being here, safe and sound... makes me feel better too, you know.

[That's something as well!]

[justonezero]

--Huh? I do?

[That's not an effect he normally has on people!!]

[messianic]

Yes. I mean it, you know.

If something had happened to you... I and a lot of other peoples would have been really upset.

Things wouldn't be the same here without you... so please try to treasure your life like we do.

[justonezero]

[Oh.

...That's weird.]

Well... I'll try to stay alive, at least!

[He's not really sure what to make of the rest of it though, and while his voice remains cheerful, there's a hint of uncertainty there, too.

What... are you supposed to do when people care about you like that...?]

[messianic]

That's all anyone can ask fo you... I'm just happy to hear that.

[It's okay, Minato doesn't seem to be expecting much. A pause...and Minato just quietly reaches out to pat Yoshi on the top of his head.]

[justonezero]

[Headpats!! He definitely brightens at that.]

You will too, right?

[messianic]

Of course I will.

[Calmly, as if he won't just offer up his life in the trial tomorrow.]

I'll do everything I can to take care of myself as well.

[justonezero]

[They both broke this promise immediately.]

Good. I think you're a very important person, Minato!

[messianic]

[They suck.]

Mm, I guess we're both important then. I'm okay with that feeling.

[justonezero]

[He looks like he's about to say something, but this time, he successfully bites it back!

Still looking pretty unconvinced, though.]

[messianic]

[... it's a work in progress

he'll take the fact that Yoshi didn't argue it, at least.]
