[ Her brow furrows even as she takes a bite of her own ice cream, not entirely satisfied with his answer. To her, it really is something to apologize for - she'd been unaware of any difficulties Genji was facing, too absorbed in herself to notice. That's not being a good friend. She hums thoughtfully, trying to think of the best way to keep the conversation going. She doesn't want Genji to have to bear it all by himself, even though she knows that he can, and has. ]

What's been bothering you...?

[ She turns her head to look at him directly. ]

—Gladdy leaving? Or— is Dodger giving you trouble again?

[ He takes a few more bites of ice cream. Hana's friendship has come to mean so much to him and he knows how concerned she must be for him. ]

I am sad about Gladio leaving, of course. And Dodger is always a pest. [ He stirs the ice cream a moment. ] It wasn't anything specific, honestly. I just realized that it was the first time since I came here that I was alone.

[ He takes another bite, letting it melt in his mouth with a thoughtful look on his face. ]

I forgot how cacophonous being alone could be. It caught me off guard.

[ She frowns, then, lips almost forming a pout. In a way, that's almost more difficult, for her not to have something more concrete to pin Genji's blues on. It's always easier to blame something - or someone specifically.

But being alone, that being his problem...

Should they try and get another roommate?

The thought furrows Hana's brow even more. No, they can't. Gladio had a place in both of their hearts that simply getting another roommate would never fill now that he's left. Besides - she remembers him complaining about his lack of personal space. And the way he always used her products...

Hana shakes her head. ]

I guess it can get pretty quiet around here now, huh...? What about Shigeru? I thought you guys would spend more time together while I was away.

[ oh they did, Hana, don't worry. ]
