I am sad. I guess. I don't usually have a lotta time to think about this kinda stuff, y'know? We don't- [ He gestures a little, like he's struggling for words. ] This isn't how we die.
[ But she knows his point. They're country-people, and she doubts those are murdered really often. Then again, this place does take away powers, so maybe it makes even them into normal people..
She finally dares to look him in the eyes again. ] It's alright though. He'll come back. Even if there's something weird going on, he'll come back for sure.
... Then, slowly but surely, her head moves sideways until it's resting right on his shoulder. She's been stressed and tired ever since she saw the broadcast, but maybe she can rest - just slightly like this, just for a little bit. Just for a few moments, just here with him now she's told him that she's weak and worried already either way... would that be alright? ]
[ It would be perfectly all right. He relaxes a little to let her settle there comfortably, remaining quiet as well. He doesn't mind staying like this. Normally the quiet might make him feel like he needed to speak or it might provoke him to ruminating about his thoughts, but right now? It does neither and instead he finds he's comfortable staying like this. It's nice. ]
[ It's pretty nice, lying here like this. It actually feels a little safe despite the situation, and even though there's a voice in her head yelling at her to get up and help all the people out there she needs to help, she's too tired to listen to it for once.
And so she gives in to rest. A few moments later her breathing has gotten slower and calmer, and it's pretty obvious she's just fallen asleep against him like this. Let's hope none of the housemates walk in on this, Hong Kong. That'd sure be awkward. ]
[ Hong Kong can handle awkward. He's always in embarrassing situations and rarely seems to care. He wouldn't want her to have to explain anything though, so it'd be best if this private moment stayed that way. As for her falling asleep on him, well. That's all well and good too. Hopefully he can stay awake....
If not, this could actually get pretty awkward indeed. ]

He nods slowly after she speaks, like he's still ingesting what she's said. ]
Right. He'll totally be back. Everyone will. You're right, Minako.
For sure.
