I just think that the things you've had to do without really being given a choice shouldn't outweigh the good things you've done for us because you wanted to.
[it's slightly morbid, but:]
A lot more of us would probably be dead if you weren't help us with first aid and patching us up. And even besides that...you're important to people. I don't know if I could talk to other people about some of the things I've told you the way I've been able to talk to you.
Yeah, that's why I'm being a little more lenient where I can be. I...it's not right. But it's not right for any of us, not just the people we're losing. At least with Molly coming back we know it's possible though. We'll get all of them back and we'll all leave.
[...but he nods at that.]
...I finally told Yamato about some stuff. I think he's a little less mad now. But for a while it really was only you. I'm grateful for that much.
He really was just worried about you... well, but I'm sure you know that by now.
... I've learned back home, and especially here, that it's important to say what you can when you can, because you never know how much time you actually have.
...yeah, I know. He had every reason to be, I guess.
I've been hearing that a lot lately here, too. Everybody seems to be thinking about that lesson, and I told Adora pretty much the same thing last week. We could all use the reminder.
We're going to see them again, but it doesn't change that we should tell people the things they need to hear. You never know who it'll actually help, right?
It's going to be difficult, Taichi-kun. I can't pretend that it won't be. I think we're going to feel much more pain before we can say we've pulled through.
But the will of the people I've met here-- it's so strong. I'm sure that we'll all keep going, no matter what happens. No matter how much it hurts.
We're not going to. We won't let people fall behind and we won't lose to whatever it is that's challenging us. I know that it's hard now, but...giving up now doesn't make sense. If they want us to play a role and be a part of some dramatic story, then we have to do everything we can.
[...]
I know you still can't say anything, Otome-san, but do you think we're going the right way now?
There's a lot you know that you can't tell us at the risk of a repeat performance, I think...so we'll have to piece stuff together ourselves. Someone's going to talk to the dead tomorrow. We'll try to get some answers then, too.

[ Fondly. ]
Even after everything I've done...

That's why, even if we had to... I want to make sure we can get everyone back and safely home. That's really all I've ever wanted.
[ She sighs, a little tiredly. ]
... But I'm glad I was able to be there for you, too. You really do carry a lot on your shoulders.

I don't want people to lose hope when we're so close to the end.

I don't want us to lose to a world like this.
