Hiroki's expression was unreadable, as her mind turned, taking in every little detail in his body language and expression.
If they were enemies, what would she do? If he turned out to be an enemy of Zerestria, then...
She had already considered to implications before she called him up here. She knew it was possible that he was not only Moswickian but also responsible in some way for what happened.
That's why she needed to know for sure. She can't go looking for answers if she can't even bring herself to confirm this. She can't find the truth with such half-hearted convictions.
And it had paid off, hadn't it? She still didn't know who he was yet, but she had been able to confirm one thing: whatever their relationship was in the past, they didn't have to be enemies this time around. She wasn't like Nanaura who would attack Moto just because his past life was from Moswick.
To Hiroki, she is both Hiroki Yu as well as Bart Belbania, and the relationships she had in this time were real.
She breathed out, exasperated, "...honestly." she walked towards him, with even, unfaltering steps, her expression set. "I won't say you're wrong to worry. Everything's been really strange, after all." When she was close enough she poked him in the chest. "But it doesn't mean you aren't an idiot."
that's cheating. Also, wow pretend all my pronoun fails didn't happen.
