Ruca, I think anyone would’ve done the same thing... You’re giving me way too much credit here.

[ but, whether Otonashi agrees or not, the sentiment is undeniably kind of Ruca to offer. when the other teen glances down towards him, he looks away, the faintest hint of color dusted across his face.

he clears his throat, but manages a weak, sheepish smile. ]

But, ah, you know... You don’t really need to justify caring about anyone. Wouldn’t it be so much easier if more people just... did?

[ shutting people out and living only for oneself is easy, straightforward, completely devoid of complications or external vulnerability. letting someone in and extending kindness takes effort. it’s dangerous. ]

... I think that’s a pretty cool thing to say.

But nobody did, other than you.

[Tanjiro has done a lot for Ruca, too, but it was Otonashi who is always right next to him, supporting and kind.]

I know I can always rely on you... so I want to be someone you can rely on, too.

[He smiles a little, wishful.]

Yes... if everybody cared for each other, the world would be perfect.

[In here, Ruca encountered a lot of kindness, but his own world is torn with war, full of prejudice. It's far from kind, but maybe it can change with time.

At the last part, Ruca has to blush slightly. He doesn't say anything more.]
