You're welcome. [He still feels like he hasn't helped or caused more problems. Something happened to Ren and Aoba and now he feels even more lost. When he returned and reunited with Aoba, he felt like he didn't know him. Aoba had grown up so much, so feeling this lost feeling, it's something Koujaku has felt before.

Should he pry more? What if this was Aoba? Would he just let the conversation end here? Would he smile, pat him on the back, and tell him he'd take him out and have some fun together? What if he did pry and was rejected?]

I'm glad I could help. The topic is was pretty heavy, but I don't mind. Though, talking about happier things is easier on the mind and heart. You should tell me about the fun parts of this place, you know. There's fun things to do, right? Or maybe back before this moonbase -- what was that like?

[He doesn't pry. He doesn't push. He keeps things as the status quo. This makes things easier for everyone -- that's his justification.]
