[Woah. It takes a certain kind of person, to say that so lightly. It's a little hard for Yu to think like that, after everything that's already happened. Not that Claude is wrong -- that definitely would have been way worse.]
That would have been a way different experience, you're right.
[But it could have easily happened. He hasn't forgotten what it felt like, shoving Namatame up to the TV. In some version of his memories, actually pushing the man in. Listening to his terrified scream as he disappeared. Eventually, he'll figure out how to sort through those memories. For now...
In some ways, Yu is a simple person. It shows here, in how his expression brightens a bit just at the mention of a friend's name. He might not need to nod to confirm it, but he does so anyway.]
My best friend, yeah. [Partner. "Person." Still figuring it out.] "Way back when" ... do you mean last summer? The maze? That's an impressive memory.
