[hello?? she wasn't expecting that?? she looks startled by the compliment - flattered, too, but mostly startled.]
It's easy to have that kind of faith when you've got good people watching your back, isn't it? [looking back on it, she knows it's true; her involvement with her friends might have only come out of a chance encounters, but her life would have been very, very different if not for that.] ...what about you? Is that what's keeping you motivated here, too?
[ Just because someone is a child, or young teen, and so forth.. Kim Dokja doesn't underestimate their strength simply based on age. Of course, everyone is more or less nerfed here but... her way of thinking, it's definitely admirable. He smiles nonetheless. ]
It is. Bonds like that are hard to come by. [ Though he looks a bit distant as he thinks about it, but decides to focus on the returning inquiry with a hum. ] Here? I'd say... it's doing whatever needs to be done. So if I need to find answers to help deal with what's going on here, I'll be sure to do my best.
[whatever needs to be done... it's not the first time she's encountered someone who thinks like that. knowing how jrpgs go, it probably won't be the last!
but it's a familiar mindset, and a comforting one. if enough people are that determined, then they're sure to come out of this alright, aren't they? and it doesn't necessarily have to be a lot of them, either. just... enough.]
I'll do my best, as well. I really want to get us all out of here.
[ To have familiar mindsets together, certainly not only gets the job done but helps to find a little comfort in it. Dokja has always preferred the numbers of a few, over the whole crowd. Then again, not a lot of people really matter to him. He wasn't the protagonist, after all. His free hand reaches over to gently pat her head. A small habit, but he smiles nonetheless. ]
We'll all be able to go back home and out of here, it's only a matter of time. Until then, let's continue working together, shall we?
[ His attention seems to be briefly elsewhere before he looks to her again. ] I appreciate you taking the time to check on me though. I'll get scolded if I don't go and rest so let's talk again soon, okay?
