Yeah... [The whole sleep thing still bothers him. A part of him thinks it feels too much like waiting next to their pods, day by day, fiddling with programs and vitals, waiting for them to wake up. Another part of him... is probably just a bit clingy.
But it's a surprise-- though it should stop being a surprise by now, surely-- and still a relief that Nanami doesn't seem to have a problem with it. It feels too easy to see himself as... a replacement, knowing how much the others had cared about her. Even still, his expression is sheepish as he moves to take another fry.]
I-I'm glad...I-I didn't want you to feel like I was trying to replace you, or anything-- [keep the inside thoughts inside hinata]-- but now we can all be there for each other. It's not exactly a peaceful school life... but it's better, in some ways.

[He's-- tentatively-- optimistic!]
