And I started the apocalypse! So what?! I don't care, Tsuki, and I'm not letting you chase me away when you need someone in your corner more than ever!
I didn't mean to! It was an accident, I--ugh! Whatever! [ she punches him lightly in the shoulder ] That's not the point! What I mean is, just because you might've done some bad things doesn't mean I don't still care about you! Cuz I know who you are deep down, and I like that guy, no matter what!
I could have been lying to you this whole time. Maybe I actually still do hate all humans and want them all to die. [The use of "still" implying he one time felt that way for real.]
Nuh-uh! You think this is any different than you getting mad at me over using my no-sadness power? You're trying to do the same thing right now! Well, I'm not falling for it! I'm gonna care--and even if you did make me hate you somehow, I'd still care! Cuz you'll still have been one of my best friends since we showed up here!
... The first time I died I tried to tell my brother the same thing. We were always arguing, and unlike me, he remembered the whole time how our father died because he was protecting me. He should have resented me, should be glad to have me gone. But do you know what he said?
I wasn’t. I wasn’t there when it happened. That’s what pisses me off the most. That’s why I have to go to the real world where he is now and punch him in the face.
[ well that's nice, now your hands are going to be absolutely soaked in tears, buddy ]
Good! I-I know! I know you will!!
[ but it still doesn't stem her crying: the fact that everyone turned on him immediately, that they voted him to die, that every day someone else she loves gets torn away from her...
Punching through the story and bringing back everyone in the daycare is cold comfort to her right now. She's trying so hard to look up, to persevere to the happy ending she knows they'll make, but it doesn't keep her from feeling awful right now, regardless of how optimistic her words are. ]

Fine then! How about this!? I promise you we'll be back! We'll break out of daycare even if we have to punch out the story itself, alright??
