Yeah. She's not that kind of person. I heard things are nicer on that side, and... We don't know what the ritual will look like. We might have to fight so we're not absorbed by the god, anyway.
[maybe it's for the best that the majority has to go. but that doesn't make death an easier pill to swallow, and she's still unsettled by it. there's a flash of guilt plainly visible on her face before she adds:]
I'm still worried about Mathis, though. He said it was okay, but...
[at the mention of mathis, his expression clouds over.]
...I feel bad too.
But I'm worried about what he'll have to handle if he stays. What Pesto said about taking responsibility and being able to handle it -- it sounds like we have to do more fucked up shit.
[as guilty as she feels, not offering to allow him to take her place. she knows she'll feel worse if she lets him stay and has to watch him get hurt without being able to do anything about it.]
Besides Matsuno, I think... You, me, Geto and Gojo. The four of us come from similar worlds. [with the devils and monsters and all.] I don't think we can be fully prepared for it. But there's a chance whatever we have to deal with at the end of the week will be a little more familiar for us.
[It's more or less Lavi's reasoning too -- that at this point it's not about who's more capable, everyone is at this point -- and like Asa said, there's no way of preparing for whatever's to come, so it's really not a question of who is better, smarter, faster, etc.
It's just that at the end of the day, there are people who are more used to carrying that weight.]
And we're used to things not going the way we want 'em to. We've seen that happen before. So it won't shock us if they do.
