Thanks... I'm trying my best for a change.
[ he's not really lacking in confidence as far as cleverness is concerned, but he's historically used it almost exclusively for selfish reasons, so it's encouraging to be praised for his efforts now that he's trying to be a little less shitty. ]
...You guys can seriously see everything, though? Is that just during trials, or...?
[ totty is trying. it means a lot to see anyone try when he's stuck on the other side and can't really do anything. it does show—it has results. he smiles, as wide as usual but a little soft in its sincerity. ]
Your efforts are paying off—you're amazing, Todomatsu! I'm so very proud that we're friends. [ which might sound rote, but he's genuine; really, he just needs to get all the encouragement he's wanted to say out while he can. ]
But, yes—we can see anything out in public! The tomfoolery... trials, and everything after. I wish we could do more than just observe, but... at least we can keep up with what you're all doing.
[ he doesn't really use that label often, so it feels weird to actually say it out loud, but. he doesn't hate it in this case. ]

The curses aren't always so bad! [ one was really bad but it's fine ] I like to think you're all just... keeping each other's spirits up!
