[ He chuckles a bit... How can he an outwardly paranoid asshole when Suguru is patting his back and cheering him on. It can take a backseat, it can work in the background, but he should reward him with a smile and some assurance... Assuage his worries.
He's a burrito so he can't do more. ]
Yeah. As long as you're there, it'll be fine. [ Satoru would be satisfied. It's clearer to him the trip wasn't real. ] I don't see how the last two help, though.

But he'll do what he can to help Satoru in this moment at least, to try and give him even a little bit of peace.
He lays down next to the burrito. ]
They're part of you. You're not the strongest just because of your eyes.
