9S feels the heat rise to his cheeks when Rita wraps an arm around his and calls him something that really matters. He knew that, of course, but to actually hear it is a completely different matter.
"Uh," he says eloquently, his thoughts briefly derailed by the sensation of Rita's arm.
But the sight of the other Rita awkwardly standing there brings back his focus, though not before the tiny thought of having two Ritas pops into his head. He quickly dismisses that thought, though.
Gently placing a hand on hers, he says, "You know it won't stay that way, right? You'll change."
Huh. Of course, the question most readily on his tongue is why don't they talk about that? It seems like it would be important?
But that question is quickly replaced by another thought.
"You're leaving everything behind? Wow. That is pretty serious."
Even knowing what he did about YoRHa, it had still been so hard to even consider leaving it all behind. Even knowing that he would die if he went back to Earth, the decision to turn away from it all had been a near visceral agony, as if someone were forcibly ripping out his black box from his chest.
The thought of bringing Rita to Earth never once entered his mind.
But from his understanding... "Wouldn't you miss it? Your home."
For Rita
