Yes, I think he'd appreciate it. And this way I know you can at least make something to feed yourself and Tetsuo-san if you have to.

[Kaneda can't be that much younger than him, but he's been added to the list of people to dad anyway. Congratulations.]

[rassera]

not something i ever thought id see myself doing but that goes for a lot in this city

[dormition]

What else is new for you?

[rassera]

decent people

[dormition]

Kaneda-san is very kind, though. Were you the only one?

[rassera]

sorry i laughed you dont know me at all do you

[Minato, you're an angel for seeing the best in everyone, even when Kaneda can't see it himself.]

i look out for my own

i dont think that counts as kind more like a responsibility

[dormition]

I'm pretty good at reading people.

Responsibility and kindness aren't exclusive. I could look after Ken-kun without being kind to him at all. You probably know what I mean.

[rassera]

no offense but you have really low standards

kind people dont start bike gangs something about being an upstanding citizen

[dormition]

Did your city need a bike gang, though? Or... did the people in the gang need it?

[rassera]

damn right the gang needed it where else were we supposed to go

you stick together

[dormition]

Then I don't see what wasn't kind about it.

[rassera]

i guess still its pretty low standards

how do you even see that in people

[dormition]

See the good parts of them? Sometimes they don't make it easy. But I have faith that it's there.

[rassera]

you ever think you set yourself up for failure with that

[dormition]

Of course. But I don't really mind; I keep trying. Sometimes all someone needs is someone who tries.

[rassera]

now i see where ken gets it from

[dormition]

Has Ken-kun said something like that?

[rassera]

that stubborn help everyone attitude of his

think he gets it from someone we know

[dormition]

... That's really true of everyone in SEES, or we wouldn't have been so determined to fight the Shadows. They'll say we all have our own reasons, but it's not giving them enough credit. I can't take responsibility for that.

[Minato is just dense. He's not the origin of it, no, but he's been a strong guiding influence, that's for sure.]

[rassera]

you ever think youre the reason sees is so strong

everyone looks to the leader after all

[dormition]

[deflect deflect]

I'm only leader because I don't hesitate when summoning. I help them stand on their own, but it's something they always had in them.

[rassera]

[NOT SO MUCH FUN BEING ON THE DEFENSIVE IS IT]

youre a constant to them


ive been there i know

[dormition]

[Don't worry, he'll just turn this right around...]

But Kaneda-san still thinks leading the gang isn't the right thing to do?

[rassera]

hey i look out for them

youre the ones with the bigger goals

[dormition]

They do, but I don't.

[Looking out for them is the only goal Minato has.]
