[sob he really, really doesn't want to talk to her right now. But he sort of needs to.]

...Takeba.

[Good boy. You're learning! She sounds a little pleased to hear from him, at the least.]

Hey, Jin.

[Jin just sounds very serious, for once. And kind of tired.]

We need to talk.

[That's never the start of anything good. She certainly sounds more serious now.]

...okay. What is it?

Last week.

[Need he say more?]

[Th-that says quite enough.]

Oh.

...I'm not telling anyone about it, if that's what you're asking.

Tch. You better not.

[The slight anger in his voice flares up for a moment, at that.]

No, I want some answers.

[And he sounds quite serious. The sudden disappearance of Takaya had understandably thrown him for a loop, but he's determined not to show that kind of weakness in front of her. So, a tightly restrained tone it is.]

[She's still not quite sure where this is going, on her end, but she's willing to ride it out.]

Alright. Ask away.

Why did you help me?

[Point-blank, as usual. And this time, he's not gonna let her weasel her way out of the question. Or give him any of that friendship crap.]

[WEASEL WEASEL WEASEL. She makes a mildly annoyed noise.]

Did you expect me to just leave you bleeding out up there? Even if you weren't someone I knew, I still would've gone up there and helped. You weren't even in your right mind.

Yeah, I would have.

[To answer her rhetorical question.]

You did it because you pity me, didn't you?

Well, I'm not you. I don't do things because I pity people, I do it because it's the right thing to do.

[Clearly, this isn't the whole truth. But she's not about to tell the rest of the story right now, either.]

Yeah right. You wouldn't have done that for Takaya.

[And a slight pause afterwards because... bawww Takaya.]

... [Deadly pause. Because he's right, but...nrgh.] You never killed any of my friends.

So that's all it takes to make someone worth saving? Talk about low standards.

[She needs to be reminded why they were enemies in the first place. And then she'll stop talking to him, pestering him, caring about him. And then Jin can stay safely in Takaya's little world, even if Takaya himself was gone now.]

...everyone deserves to live, Jin. ['Even you'.] Look, do you really want the truth? Are you even going to believe me if I tell you?
