I-I see...
[ that pretty much answers his question but where does he go from here? it'd be insensitive to just ask about her hands directly and he knows that kirigiri can be tight-lipped sometimes so he doesn't want to step on any toes. ]
... are you all right?
[ he chooses to go for a non-direct way of asking, leaving the question vague on what she could "all right" about ]

[ hm. a good question. ]
I've not had too much time to think about it. I've had...other concerns.

Ryouta is currently...out of commission.

Out of commission?
[ what... is that suppose to mean... (please help him) ]
Is he hurt?
[ what... is that suppose to mean... (please help him) ]
Is he hurt?
...Comatose. It's a memory, apparently, with the associated pain.
What?!
[ hold the FUCK BACK ON naegi also jerks a bit in the surprise so he accidentally pulls on kirigiri's arm since their hands are still stuck together and he realizes this, looking down again ]
Sorry-- but are you saying that's physically experiencing his memory?

[ the tugging...but she just lets it happen while she nods. ]
Although please keep that quiet...he's also a private person. But he was hit with it while we were out together...

Of course, I won't tell anyone.
[ do you fucking trust naegi to keep a secret though?? well, he can keep it but he'd be obvious that he's keeping his mouth shut and will probably piss off a kirigiri-like person ]
Is he all right, though? How long has he been out?

[ tbh she doubts anyone will ask him about it so it's fine... ]
Since the first. [ IT'S LIKE THE THIRD ]

Is he in the hospital? Can any of the doctors help?
[ naegi if this is some weird magic retrospec bullshit, the docs can't do anything but he ~hopes~ ]

They don't seem to be able to. But he is, yes. Someone is at his bedside most of the time, so if there's any change I'll know immediately...
I-I'm sorry, Kyouko. That must be really hard for you, on top of everything else...
[ like her bacon hands ]
Please let me know if I can do anything to help, though. I want to be there for you.,

...Just being yourself helps, you realize. You're a "light" in the darkness as ever.
"Light" in the darkness? Isn't that really pushing it? I mean, I'm no one that special...
I've never known you to be downtrodden for more than a few seconds.
I'm just a little more optimistic than most people, I think. Plus, I can't let the small things get to me. I won't be able to move forward like that.
Well, then and now...it's a fantastic saving grace.
[ naegi stares at her for a second after she says that and laughs a bit ]
You said that exact same thing back in my memories... did you remember that too?

I do. [ she doesn't update everyone always... ] Besides, it's still true.

Wait, the same talent as Kyouko? Is that even possible?
[ to be the ultimate of something, doesn't that mean you have to be, well... the only person for that talent? ]

That would make sense, like if they chose a new elite for that field every couple of years. I don't think there'd be any other way to have two Super High School Level Detectives at the same time.
[ hmmm ]
But if you went to Hope's Peak then that means you would have a title as well. Do you remember what it was?
