She's got some really amazing abilities, but...even though she does, she's always so careful not to cross any boundaries with people. She's been through so much ever since she was a child, but she's still so kind and warm inside.
She gets embarrassed sometimes showing her kindness and generosity, but I don't think I've ever met anyone more giving than her.
I just know... that no matter how composed someone is, no matter how understanding, no matter how they act outwardly... there are times when they have problems too. And it's not always easy to talk about them.
So... I'm glad you thought you could come to me about them, Minato-kun.

[ You did this to yourself, Minato. ]
no subject
Besides... he's not ashamed of his crush. Shiho is the most amazing person ever.]
... Shiho-chan... [He just admits that with a sigh, rubbing the back of his head a little.]
no subject
[ ... Huh. Well, she hadn't seen that coming!
Granted, she hadn't seen Yukino harboring a massive crush on Fujii, either, so. She can't really talk. ]
We admittedly haven't talked much, but she's a sweet girl... and I get the feeling she'd make sure you'd take care of yourself.
no subject
[It's said so, so solemnly.]

It runs a lot deeper than a crush, doesn't it?
[ He really sounds so loving, just describing her. ]
no subject
Closes mouth.
Maya no don't do this to him.
He flushes a little despite himself, ducking his head.]
T-that's not-- I. I don't know, but it's... it's not the time for that anyway.
[HE STILL HAS TO TELL HER HE'S DEAD.]
no subject
Right, one thing at a time. I know you'll do fine.
[ Even though it will definitely... hurt both of them. ]
no subject
Minato just...sighs, shoulders slumping.]
I'll...try.
Shiho-chan does deserve to know... and once she knows, she has the right to decide what to do for herself.
no subject
... And I know you can do it.
no subject
[Minato drags in a slow breath and...manages a very small smile for her.]
Thanks...for this. For the advice, and for listening. Not a lot of people know my situation still, but...
Even if they did, you would still be the right person to come to.
no subject
[ She appreciates it. Sincerely. ]

no subject
You think of me as composed? Thanks.
[Focus, Minato.]
But, um... I guess so. I'm still getting used to it, but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate it.
no subject
[ Yeah. ]
... But it's okay. You'll get more used to it the more you do it.
-- Not that I want you having too many problems here, but still.
no subject
I'm sure I'll be fine. This is...sort of an unusual problem. In general.
no subject
[ One step at a time. Just like learning how to summon his Personas without the use of his evoker. ]
no subject
I'm going to do my best.
[No matter what comes.]
I'll...always care about Shiho-chan, no matter what she decides.
no subject
no subject
But.
It's still up to her what happens from here. That's--that's only right.
no subject
no subject
... Me? I-- Oh.
[It's...pretty clear he's struggling not to ask why.]
no subject
[ Sorry, what was that, she's just going to go-- ]
no subject
HE JUST.
Seems kind of dazed.
Wow that happened fast.]
O-okay, Maya-nee. Um--I'll talk to you later...?
