In all fairness, Mizuki wouldn't have been upset if he were offended. He can only imagine how fucking awful it must be to be compared to people who, essentially, were a catalyst for all the stuff that happened. But maybe this is just Mizuki's way of... apologizing? Or even just trying to understand? Unclear.

But he's gone and brought the mood down again, hadn't he? Mizuki picks up his bowl and slurps the little that's left in the bowl down and puts it down. Then he shifts from the chair to, for the perhaps billionth time today, give Heimr a hug.

There's a very brief silence.

"I think... despite the fact I can't remember this place, and of all the things I learned, that your new name suits you very much, Mister Heimr. Thank you... for being here for us."
