He wouldn't be so sure all of her friends were happy after such a thing, but that's something he keeps to himself. There's no need to muddy the waters that way. Instead, they should talk about that last statement.

(Yes, hypocrisy is about to abound, here.)

"I see..." Nijima-san said something similar, didn't she, the day she dropped by. It felt like she couldn't do anything right, always trying to live up to the expectations adults placed on her shoulders because she seemed responsible. "Were you asked to help in these situations?"

For now, he wants to get a better grasp on the things bothering Maya.

"...No." There's a resignation to that admission. Maya's never asked to help, not where it counts. She helps because she can't consider the alternative. "They'd ask me for help writing musicals and editing recordings. But the stuff that really matters nobody asks me."

I just do it.

"I- kinda just throw myself at people's problems. I have for a while." She's usually right, and wrong, when she does this. Right because she's aware someone needs to intervene. Do something, try to stop the oncoming tragedy. And then she's wrong to do it herself. Plus the one time she did it right is the one time it went the worst. "Which I know I shouldn't do."

But what else can I do, if nobody asks me to help?
