[she laughs, but it's a small thing that isn't even directed at him]
Mistakes are a part of life.
And to be honest - it's true that a lot of people suffered. And not everyone is going to agree with me. I'm very much aware of that, but -
I feel that if events didn't go this way, I wouldn't have made the friends that I did. Instead, I'd just be sitting in a corner just filing dull paperwork all on my own, distancing myself from everyone else.
Nobody's perfect, and I think if people think that you should live to such high expectations of perfection... well, those guys are goddamn imbeciles. Now you know and recognize your mistakes. And I think that is important here.
Because you don't know, do you - what would have happened if you had been stronger. Or well, maybe you do, hell if I know. I don't have any powers close to a god, after all. I'm just an ordinary teenage girl from Yokohama. That's all.
[she waves her hand dismissively, confidence brimming in her voice and the words that she says, her smile softening]
We can't think about the 'what ifs' - whether they could have been worse, or better. That doesn't matter to the us who have made these choices. Maybe in another place, another time, there could have been other choices that were made... other paths that were taken.
But that's not our lives, is it? But - I don't think anyone's choices were for nothing, you know? And more importantly, you're getting back up again after made those mistakes and plan on working hard for everyone. There are plenty of people, after all, who aren't willing to rectify them and instead ignore shit to wind up making the same mistakes. If you're not planning on doing that and work hard to fix things for the people in this world - that's fine.
[wait]
Ah, but I should mention to not work too hard for other people, otherwise you'll get 'selfless bastard syndrome' and not take care of yourself and then I'll have to start potentially getting a Gil Alarm.
