( Asriel blinks a bit at that before smiling a bit. Maybe it does sound a little silly, though it does make sense, doesn't it? Boss monsters were a bit different from other monsters. They were strong, and depended more on their children than other monsters did... It was really only one of the reasons why Asriel's death came as a shock to not only his parents, but to the rest of the Underground. )
Heehee, it does sound a little like something from a game or a book, huh? But... I guess it's 'cause the other monsters always saw us as leaders.
( He can't help but shake his head at her next words. )
I... I think we can all say things that we don't really mean, but... you really want to help others, and be as kind as you can. I... think just wanting that shows that you really do have a kind heart.
( Asriel may be a child, but he's lived longer than anyone here can really even start to guess. During that time, he's seen all kinds of people -- he's met every monsters in the Underground, and humans that had fallen to the Underground that were so different from one another. It's been enough experience to be well aware of what someone with ill-intentions can do to someone. It's... rare to meet someone who honestly just wants to selflessly help.
He stops at the buzzer, looking to Ochako with curiosity and a slight head tilt. )
O-Oh... uhm... It's going to be your turn to go really soon, isn't it?
[Ochako smiles back at Asriel - she never really knows what to do when someone calls her kind, of compliments her in general. Ochako sort of has a big mouth sometimes, saying what's on her mind, or being a little too forward and blunt. Honestly? She can be a little rude without meaning to, but her heart is in the right place when it comes to really helping people, like he said. Ochako just...really, really likes when people around her are happy and smiling. And she wants to protect that.
As the buzzer sounds again, a second call for the tournament attendees, Ochako nods her head and giggles.]
Mmh, seems like it, so I should probably get going to the arena hall. You'll watch for me, right? Ehehe, I hope I can count on you cheering me on, Asriel-kun!!
[She holds out a balled fist to her tiny, fuzzy friend. Fist bump of good luck?]
( At this point, fighting is something that makes Asriel a bit nervous, but he also knows that this is just for fun. No one's going to seriously end up hurt - and, if they do, then he's sure that there are healers nearby who can help them.
He blinks a bit at the fist before raising his own, bumping his fist against hers. )
Good luck, Ochako! I'll be right here when you're done!
