A hero's welcome (backdated to after the Balmarian operation)

[herodrawing]

Guys! Guys!

[It didn't take long for Izuru to learn what happened during the Crossgate fight. He's quickly running through Sakihama corridors, trying to find his friends.]

That was amazing. I knew you could do it!

[He steps for a moment, but isn't even short on breath. Where does all this energy come from?]


I was kinda worried that I couldn't go out there and help. But everything turned out fine. Sorry, looks like I still need to learn to trust my friends more.

After all, we're all heroes, right?

Just because I accepted one of your lines doesn't mean it's the same for all of them, okay? One step at a time.

[herodrawing]

Right, right...

But you know. You still found your own way, Asagi. All those people who laugh at the armor dodging video online don't know how many cool things you really did.

[cloningblues]

Those people don't know the real me.

...And I don't need to prove to them how I am in reality. They're just strangers.

[herodrawing]

Exactly!

But I think even they realize on some level - Team Rabbits helped save the Earth, right? From Wulgaru, and a lot of other bad guys.

That was all you too Asagi.

[cloningblues]

And now Balmarians too.

...In a way.

[herodrawing]

Isn't that even better? Beating up bad guys is one thing, but making them realize how wrong they were so they reform and become good is on a whole new level.

The best end to a hero's struggle!

[cloningblues]

Hold on with calling them good just yet. They still practice human sacrifice.

...It's willing, but doesn't mean I like it.

[herodrawing]

Oh yeah, that's right.

But this way of thinking, where you sacrifice someone for the well being of the rest of the world...

It's not just Balmarians who think like that.

[cloningblues]

Doesn't mean I like that, either.
