[Jyushi's always been a good kid. Sensitive, thoughtful, the sort of person who's always got his emotions tuned in to others. If only his past hadn't prevented him from making more of those connections through which he could shine.
The Jyushi of five years ago never could have said these things, not because he lacked the sincerity but because he had been denied the opportunity, and it's only now, after everything that's happened with him, with Kuko, that he's finally catching up. Hitoya had always intended to help Jyushi in every way he could. He just never imaged it would turn out quite like this.
It kind of forces him to take a step back, put his own problems into focus. The same way the time and distance of being here has.]

I'm sorry. You're right.
