[Scott stays silent as he listens to Minato speak, wanting to fully hear out the teen before he says anything in return. Part of the whole trying to be better and calm and actually listen before speaking up with his own thoughts. He is glad, however, that others have told Minato to find the time to actually 'live' now. Guess Minato's never... had that mindset before? It's honestly depressing to think about, explains why he probably thought none of his friends cared that he died. A part of him is upset for the teen, but... holding it back, because he is glad that he's actually being honest.
He's pretty sure that Minato isn't telling him all this just to make him happy, because it's not.
He's different from Kotone in that respect though, huh? She always seemed to know what she wanted to do with her 'second chance,' making new friends and memories with everyone even if getting up is hard. She wants to live her second life to the fullest and Scott just wants to be a part of that, part of her strength. Minato, on the other hand, clearly hasn't reached that point and what he wants from his second chance may be different anyway. They both experienced the same end, but to Scott, they've always been different people.
After a moment, Scott settles on the ground next to the other teen, but his focus still on him.]
...I don't think anyone here is telling you to figure it out right away. [He says quietly, glancing at Minato as he tries to formulate what he really wants to say to him. Not telling him what he wants to hear, because Scott's never been about that, but expressing himself in a way that is actually helpful but still honest.]
We're just here to help you, Minato. I think something like that is only something you can figure out, but just... know you won't be alone in that process. [He lets out a small sigh.] If you got Thanatos under control, it seems like he's willing to wait a bit longer too.
