She'll be serious, taking the small vulnerability he's shown her and holding it close as she nods in understanding. He sounds just like she did, when she was leading SEES. Not that she'd told anybody that until she'd gotten to Aldrip, but -- it's kind of funny, having her own thoughts echoed to her from someone else.]
I think if you ask, people don't want you to lead, [she says simply with a fond smile. Junpei had wanted so badly to be the leader at the beginning, and she'd been more than willing to hand it over to him, but Mitsuru and Akihiko had believed in her. She could never let them or any of the others down. As she keeps walking, she adds, almost as an afterthought, almost as if it's not of monumental importance,] Don't forget your team wants to support you too, though, okay? I didn't learn that until it was too late.
