[ ...ah, Setsu can't really hide that relief that shows when they receive his answer, shoulders losing some of that tension again. while they would have respected his request to be alone, especially how rough their encounter and return was earlier.... ]
...Truthfully, I don't want to leave. [ I don't want to go. they would much rather stay here, because even now they don't want to be alone. they don't want to be left behind. which is ironic from them, considering everything they've done back in their universe, have tried to here... but to be stronger, they tell themselves to hide it. admitting it quietly in their low moments and feeling guilty when they do. though more than they don't want to be alone-- even more so, they don't want to leave Jonas alone. so his answer is enough. ]
So if it's fine, I'll stay with you then. We can head back together later.
