[ On one hand, it might not be the way that most people talk about their friends. On the other hand, isn't that the kind of thing you can only say about a real friend? Sora's surprise had mainly stemmed from the fact that it was Nill saying it.

He doesn't know where they're heading either, but it also doesn't matter. What's important is that they've put some distance between themselves and the apartment, and the walk gives Nill space to get her thoughts in order. The fact that she's revealing any of this to him in the first place is a big show of trust, he can tell, and so he'll take every word to heart.

Heine had saved her life. That's a huge act, something that had altered Nill's trajectory to something better. It's no wonder that she feels so close to him, and that his disappearance would hit so hard. It makes Sora wish that he could have gotten the chance to know Heine a little better, to get to see what was hidden underneath the layers of attitude. ]


Well... [ Sora's pace slows a little, but when he glances over at Nill, it's with a warm smile. ] I guess I owe him a lot, then. If it weren't for him, we never would have met.

[ And that's something to be grateful for, from Sora's perspective.

They round a corner and Sora spots a small park a short distance ahead of them. It has trees and a few benches, adding a little bit of a green to the otherwise urban setting. He points it out, looking to Nill to judge her reaction. ]
