[Now that he can believe. And he admires that, really, even though he probably won't admit it. But when she turns the question around on him, he hesitates.]
It was a rough week. [The comment is dry, somewhat sarcastic. In truth, he doesn't really want to answer -- not in any great detail, at least. Not because he doesn't trust her, but...he has trouble talking about himself already, and now that she knows...whatever she knows about him? That makes it harder. Makes him uneasy. Because --as she very well might understand, now, for all he knows-- bad things tend to happen to people that get close.
...But she's also the type of person who won't care. Like Serah, like Yeul. And after a moment, with resignation, he adds:] I'll be okay. "During that time"...I guess I fared just about as well as anyone.
[Which is to say, "not at all." He's not okay right now, and he knows it. But he also knows he will be. He doesn't really have much of a choice. He eyes her for a moment, hesitant, because he can barely wrap his head around the question he wants to ask.] You-- [He cringes; there's no delicate way to do this.] You're not...human, right? What are you?
