Yes.

Why? Does your life mean so little to you?

[... No. Definitely not that.]

It's not that my life means little to me, but that the lives of others matter so much.

Why? What do they do for you? They can be strangers, traitors, or murderers—would you still save them?

They could be that, yes. I'm not denying it. But they could also be the best people alive.

In the absence of knowing anything else, I'm going to believe in just the goodness of people.

You certainly have perseverance.

[ that much she'll give. but now to circle back to where they started. ]

Are men all you really wanted to talk about with me? There's no one else I can mention.

[She'll take that.]

Yeah. It kind of was. That's okay, the ones you did mention sound pretty interesting.

Perhaps. Will you look them up?

Would it give you trouble if I did?

Mention me in any way and it would.

Is that so?

Then I'll be sure not to.

[ asking if she'll truly speak to them would be showing concern, which she has nothing of, but on the terms of their agreement, shouldn't she continue their conversation? ...frühling isn't sure how.

sigh. what did she get herself into, honestly. ]

Does Heiwajima know what you think of him?

[who knows :) ]

Huh? What do you mean?

Exactly what I said.

Yes, of course.

He doesn't feel the same way?

[It's at this time Maya realizes she... can't recall much, if anything, Shizuo's said about her to her aside from the bits and pieces one would expect from him-- like that she shouldn't have to spend time with bad people. That kind of general talk.]

I can't say what he feels. He's not a big talker.

He seems the shy type. Tough on the outside, soft within. You shouldn't be afraid to get what you want.

Get what I want? What if I don't want anything?

[Where is this going...?]

Come, now. Women always want something, whether or not they realize it.

... Something from a man?

Sure, in this context. Or certain qualities in a person that create an attraction to him or her.

[woah slow down fruh this is all new to her... or at least the part where she consciously says anything about it out loud]

Okay. With lots of the men I know, I just want to see them smile and be happier more! That includes Shizuo-san, of course. :) So I'll keep trying to "get what I want".

[How scandalous!!!]

[ ah. right. this is a girl who said she'd give up her life for a stranger's. ]

Have you any ounce of self-worth?

[She would risk her life, yes! But she values it just as much as she would any others.]

Of course I do. [Maya's smiling as she types it.] It only takes the simple things to keep myself satisfied, that's all!
