... It's... okay to cry, Ippo-chan. Just... you know, you know, go for it...
[she squeezes him gently]
It's... it's nice to have somebody there for you when you're feeling bad, right? Right? So, so, Ibuki's here! She'll always be here for you!
[Though, as she spoke, there was a small hitch in her voice...]
[... as far as she could tell, besides that small incident at the hospital, she was safe here at the Bastion. The excursions she made for shards were more or less safe, because she never ventured too far, and she was always with somebody who could easily overpower what they went up against]
[... but now that she knew about cores... that there was another one out there that they'd go after... and that apparently these core hunts were always so dangeorus]
Just... just... let it all out... okay...?
[... there was that possibility that Ippo wouldn't come back... and Ibuki herself couldn't help but cry]
