[Mika doesn't even notice Nazuna's initial approach, but his singing stops the moment someone calls his name; it's not a voice he expected to hear, not a person he expected to see when he opens his mismatched eyes, and Mika feels immediate tears sting his eyes.

Someone he knows. Someone from Yumenosaki, from home, someone--

someone who'd betrayed them, who'd left them and hadn't batted an eye to help in Valkyrie's toughest times. Mika's fists clench as he tries to combat the two feelings, resentment and relief, and... a lot of it is forced, he wants nothing more than to be friendly with Nazuna again, even if there's still truth to the frustration he feels on Shu's behalf as well.]

Y... Yer not. [How's he supposed to react? Should he be happy? Mad? Not crying, probably, but that's a lost cause now.] Of all people, why'd it have to be Nazuna-nii..?

[The only person he'd want less is Eichi, the root of the problem. He's really happy to see Nazuna, but he can't be? He shouldn't be? But he is? It's frustratingly a lot for someone like Mika.

He opens his mouth, shuts it with a discomforted whine, then tries again.]

I'm not seein' things, right? I know I haven't been sleepin' all that well, but I ain't dreamin' right now, right? Nn, or is it a nightmare..? No, Nazuna-nii can't be a nightmare, no matter what I feel.
