[It's a little scary to hear that - that Haru had considered turning them down. He wonders if anyone else would have bothered to hold a hand out to him when he existed in that place between worlds, or what they would have been like, or how different his life would be with a different saniwa. He doesn't like imagining it, so he shuts that train of thought down and focuses on tying the first set of bandages up neatly. He then sets that foot back down, and picks the other one up to start the cleaning process again.]

I'm really glad you came to us even though you were scared. [He's always grateful to Haru, it seems, for this or that. Haru is always, always doing things to better the lives of those around him.]

So, y'know - no matter what happened before or what'll happen next, we'll all be here for you. Because Haruji is Haruji, and we love you.
