It's super goddamn selfish of me but I wish I could take you back to my Tokyo. I dunno, maybe I just don't wanna think about what life would be like without you around at this point. Too sappy? Way too damn sappy. I'll cut back on the levels of maple syrup drip that's currently stickin' all over my hands right now.
But also, I think it's gotta be said that like
I ain't really great at all this hero shit to begin with
[He's really not that great of a person, Hajime... he knows that. When it comes down to it, he'll use those powers to stop people from being hurt, their choice to do it or not. He said last resort, but the last resort option has been the same path that he's had to take almost every step of the way.
If Hajime had a palace, this would be a very different discussion. But that's not the case here, the things that are holding him back are problems of his own devices. And in this case, protecting Hajime is the same as making sure nothing touches his heart in the Metaverse. It's all about perspective, which is why the Phantom Thieves operate in a pocket that represents an avenger's understanding of justice. He just... doesn't know how to convey that to Hajime the right way.]
