[ He's perfectly fine with the time it takes for Yuri to think on her answer. He hadn't actually expected it to be quick. But he hadn't expected it to be all that simple, either. To everyone's obvious surprise, Souji bursts out laughing. Once his laughter recedes, he turns his customary 'smile but not actually a smile' upon her. ]
You sure are easygoing. [ if he sounds scornful, it's because he is and he's rude. ] That kind of whatever happens, happens attitude will just get you killed.
[ And about the swatting flies... Well, different people have different ways. He's in really no position to judge the way she views another person's life. ]
First that girl and now you. Kashuu must have his hands full.
I think it's more apt to say I don't care. [Rather than easygoing, she means, after patiently waiting for his laughter to subside (it had earned him a rather unimpressed, 'really??' look the entire time, because jesus souji why this).] Or maybe 'can't'... [Yuri sighs and it actually ends in a soft 'ha' noise of laughter.] That's getting dramatic though.
I haven't had to fight for my life against another living human before. Fighting the dead is easy--they're already dead, I can't do much worse. I was saving them. Here... it's not that simple.
[Yuri rubs her arms, feeling cold for reasons that have nothing to do with the actual temperature.] What girl? [She tilts her head curiously, confused]
[ ugh yuri... the more Souji talks to her, the more he's sure that they're both fucked up. ]
It is if you think of them as flies. That's what you said before, right?
[ If Souji subscribed to that particular belief, he'd probably never say it out loud... It'd upset Kondou-san, that's why. He shrugs at her question. ]
Just someone who's learning from Kashuu, apparently. Maybe you've seen her around if she wasn't lying. Loud, annoying, pokes her nose into things that aren't any of her business...
[ He pauses, slowly blinking. ] Like you, I guess. If you were loud.
[ Souji snorts at that. does being self-aware make you less fucked up... or more fucked up..... Then he blinks at her question, as if surprised that she's even asking him in the first place. ]
Yeah. [ Souji says almost immediately. What an easy question! ] I'd tell you to fix that if I didn't think it was impossible.
[ Nice to know that Souji can still tease people even while trapped underground with no food or water and without any idea what's going to happen..... as usual. ]
[She resists the urge to roll her eyes, though there's a soft 'ha' of amusement. How quick he was to answer! She completely expected that answer from him though, she can't even pretend to be offended.]
You really don't know how to talk to girls. I don't know how you got so popular in the future. [The number of stories revolving around him and made up love interests... Why. Jeez]
Even if I'm annoying, it can't be so bad if you still talk to me. I'm glad. [A rare 'dere' sort of moment towards Souji...?? Amazing.]
[ truly, this is the rarest of rare moments. Usually, Souji would be like "??? why are you glad??" but he's already more or less accepted that Yuri's weird, so he takes her dere like how a normally functioning person would take it, with amusement. ]
You should be. I've killed tons of people who were less annoying than you.
[ Souji once more proving that he can't talk to girls at all. ]
So I'm an exception? [But her tone is dry and she makes another huffing noise of amusement. It's easier, this back and forth, morbid though it may be. Easier than focusing on the things she didn't want to remember, like Fuyuhi's face when she killed herself, or Hisoka's warmth that isn't here anymore.]
Well, it doesn't matter in a place like this. Though... I don't know if we're considered inside the city anymore. I wonder what would happen if you died out here...?

[There's a sort of tired amusement to her voice though, because she's at least aware that it's, you know, fucked up. Awareness is good, right?
WHAT A VAGUE DESCRIPTION... That could describe like 90% of the female population probably.]
Am I annoying? [She won't deny she pokes her nose where it doesn't belong, at least.]
