Yet Lili still shuffles uncertainly for a moment, fretting and fussing over her answer. It's true - she doesn't know Atsushi as well as Dazai probably does but.... she shakes her head. There's still a bit that she won't relent on.]
Even if he needs support, he takes things like that too much to heart... and he always gets down on himself, which is infuriating! [SHE SPENT ENOUGH TIME WITH HIM TO KNOW THAT TOO.]
So even if you don't mean it in a bad way.... I never want him to have to hear things like that, because he'll start believing stupid things again... and I don't want him to ever think that he's anything lesser anymore.
[Because he's not. The Atsushi she knew was warmth and kindness, smiling through tears even when Lili started to lose hope. He gave her hugs when she was falling apart. He made her breakfast and shared her home when she was at the pinnacle of loneliness.]
