[Harumasa is instantly reassured, and slowly starts to relax. The shaking doesn't stop, but he looks a little less scared. As Belle says that about the documentaries, he chuckles along with her just as quietly.]
Oh, but whatever will you do if it turns out that I like those boring, glorified slideshows?
[He's clearly teasing judging by both his tone and expression.]
But... Thank you.
[Whether the gratitude is for her reassurance or the promise of her keeping an eye out for information is difficult to say. His gold eyes are on her, taking in the waver in her voice and the shadow of sadness and pain in her eyes. Harumasa can guess what's weighing heavy on her heart in this moment. He gives her a warm and confident smile.]
Hey. I'm still here. My heart's still going strong. I'm not gonna disappear on you anytime soon. Okay?
[He'll ultimately lose this fight, but he's not going quietly into that goodnight. Not today.]
Don't give up on me just yet. It's scary right now, I won't deny that, but I've still got time and I still have life in me.
