[ it's not like makoto's averted his attention that whole duration. in contrast, he's been deliberating in silence en route to yet another district (as if there's anything else he'd preoccupy his mind with, given half an option and enough reason to pursue what he's been running from, all this time).
it's hard admitting that much: how much he doesn't know, how everyone seems just beyond the span of his reach. this isn't someone they should be discussing so trivially. he needs to see haru, even distant and detached and retreating even as he answers.
but makoto, as always, succumbs to the selfsame compulsions. ]
