[When she finishes, she's prepared for the questions, and she dips her head.]
There's been nothing. Chaos is gone, the being that was behind all of our enemies. Sailor Moon scattered him across the cosmos, and while he'll come back...we'll have peace for now. And it's not too long until it's time to unify the world. Which, well, we're all eager for.
[His grin is returned, a hesitant laugh echoing it all.]
And no, it's not strange. It helped me, sure, but it made it harder too. I'm used to having my friends, people I know I can trust completely. That's not something I quite have with anyone else here, we just don't have the history. But, at least the company is nice, and I'm having new opportunities.
And I'm useful, I can help people without having to hide as much.
Good. I know he'll come back because worlds can't exist without Chaos but it's like trying to put together grains of sand. It'll take a while. [Hiro what.
But he can definitely empathize with that and resonate with it. He likes a lot of people in Cerealia, but the level of trust is also something he's iffy about.] I think the only person here I can really completely trust right now is Tadashi. But that's pretty obvious. [He's weirdly not embarrassed about admitting that.] I trust other people here, too, even if I'm not used to checking in with them or telling them what I'm doing. Sometimes it's better to ask for forgiveness later than put people in danger immediately.
[Bad ideas. Bad, bad ideas.] I can help people here. Me and Baymax both and maybe we're not like you guys but I think that's what makes the colony really cool. We can always regroup and help each other when things get too bad. [Even if he still believes he's bigger than he is and that people must be protected.] And you know? Mars is pretty sweet.
[Rei breathes in, and breathes out, slowly and steadying herself as she does. She wants to correct him, to remind him that he's still really young. He's fourteen, and while that's how old she was when she started? He's still very human. She doesn't. She restrains herself, and tries to pass it off as just being shaken from the whole...talking about Galaxia thing.]
You can. Just be careful, okay? Let me know, or Ami-chan or even Minako-chan, if you're going to do something dangerous. Like we talked about before, we have to support one another, and that means a network.
If I think it's that dangerous and something I can't handle, I'll definitely set up something to ask you guys for back-up. I'll be as careful as I can. [It's what he can do. He doesn't even quite trust himself, really. He can't help but chuckle at her repetition of the word.]
I forgot you're from, like, ancient times. [He thinks that might be it.] It's just that she's really cool, you know? Why wouldn't I think that? But I like having you as a friend, too. [He's met both of them, and he likes both of them, but for different reasons. He hopes Rei understands.]
[There's a lot of meaning laced into that. she doesn't want him to die, and she doesn't want him hurt. It's silly, but it's true, because deep down she still thinks you're a hormonal, angsty, ridiculous teenage boy.]
And I suppose so. But, we should probably get back home, huh? Tadashi-san is probably worried, and I need to make sure Minako-chan and Ami-chan have dinner ready.

[And with that said, she snorts.]
Sweet, huh? That's new to me.

I think that's a good idea. We'll get together again soon though. I'll make sure of it.
