Oh. Ah ... wasn't he hurt in Mirror's game?

He did.

[n-nods]

I think he's better now?

He has you to thank for that, doesn't he?

He told you I healed him?

Yayoi did, I think. She came over to see how we were faring after the loss.

Are any of your teammates still hurt...?

Ed's suffering from a headache but it's not that bad.

... we're just biding our time for when Mirror takes Link.

[nods]

Mirror ...

[looking down in his cup]

... whatever it is you guys keep doing to piss her off, just. Stop it. It's one thing when she's taking it out on you guys. It's another when she's branching out to other teams to find new ways to hurt you.

How am I supposed to tell Allen to stop protecting his friends? Or Cobra?

Protecting one leads to hurting another.

So we should just give up?

[shakes his head]

Maybe they should just stop having so many friends.

Do you realize how ridiculous that sounds?

It's a valid opinion. Not one that seems to be welcome, but valid nonetheless.

[sets his cup aside and rises from his seat.]

Thank you for the tea. Send my regards to the others.

[begins gathering up the tea things]

You're so right. My worldview has completely changed as a result of your completely valid opinions. If you leave now, you can get the last word too.

. . . you've gotten really weird.

[siiiighs]

I-it's opposite day. I'm not sorry.

... Ah.
