Lili doesn't do things for thanks or gratitude, she's never aspired to be the recipient of a "thank you" in her life. Something like that sounds difficult, it sounds... selfish. Even if it'll never properly occur to her, she very rarely goes out of her way to do things that are self-satisfying.
No, this sounds correct. Throwing all of herself into a cause even though everyone warns her not to. Perhaps trying to be next to Leon is going to be painful, it's going to be thankless, and it's going to be way in over her head but... isn't that just exactly how she chooses to live her life?
So she shakes her head then, her tears starting to subside finally as she wipes her eyes with her sleeves.]
I-
I'm just doing what I think is right... even if you call me naive for it.
