[ Logically, it makes no sense for it to be his fault... It isn't Shoko's or Yaga's fault, either. It is a complicated and complex problem that unveils the holes in their society, something something. Satoru doesn't understand the lengths of what may need to change and what he'd need to do, but at least he has ideas.
He rolls his head side to side. ]
It matters. I'm still on your side because, even if we've been apart, we've always been a team.
[ He may be a freak, but a freak with emotions, unfortunately. Those words may have been parroted, but it's because he trusts Suguru to know the right thing to say. It's better than anything he can come up with, he's sure.
The drumming has him peer over like a lazy cat. ]
It's okay. [ Hurting his feelings, not deciding to nuke non-sorcerers. ] There was some meaning or purpose... You didn't do it for no reason.
[ He has never thought too deeply on a emotional level about it... Objectively, why wouldn't he be worried if his best friend went and said I'm going to kill all of the non-sorcerers to create an ideal world just for sorcerers? What are they—victims? Prey? That kind of talk and mentality is only for the weak...
Or is that only him that thinks that? Suguru asked to list them. ]
It was sudden for me when the news came. When I talked to you, you seemed like a stranger, but I knew it was you. [ How could he mistake him? His voice, aura, and soul... Yet they were distant, but Suguru already knows his worries about them being separated. ] I could have seen if the Gojo clan could pull strings and lighten your sentencing, but you seemed resolved. It'd be difficult to argue for you if you're unremorseful and your body count kept increasing.
That dream—it was going to destroy the other side of you. When that happens, you'd be alone.
[ These are all just worries focused on the memory. He isn't sure if this was supposed to be a general list. ]
[ He's happy with whatever Satoru decides to tell him, and listening... He kind of gets it.
They'd lived in each other's space every day for two years, and knew each other inside and out. It would be unsettling if Satrou suddenly one day became a stranger to him, and there was no way for him to reach him or understand.
For him, the wall between them had been steadily built. For Satoru, it appeared in a single moment. ]
We didn't hang out as much as we used to, but... No. I didn't.
[ It seemed like their passing conversations and few shared moments were enough for him. Simply knowing Suguru is there, running missions like him and getting stronger, kept him company. ]

Sure.
[ Also rests his head on the table now. This has been such an emotional week... It's exhausting. ]
But it's not your fault either way, you know.

But still, even if he's just hearing his own words parroted back to him, it does bloom warmth in his chest. It's nice to know that he isn't alone.
He smiles reaching out to idly drum his fingers along Satoru's arm. ]
Thanks. And sorry for hurting you. I guess I forgot that it was possible.
[ He doesn't want to think of Satoru as some untouchable thing. ]

Good thing that memory's out, finally.

Maybe I was too busy to notice.

[ Satoru was pretty much constantly in the field, to valuable to waste time at the school. ]
... It's surprising since you're so demanding.
no subject
[ they probably gave him good food, BUT NOTHING SPECIAL! NO TREATS! Gently kicks Suguru's shoe. ]
Hey.
[ he's not that demanding.
no, he is. ]

Is there any special left in this world that you don't already have?
