I know things are different here and you don't have the rest of your team or anything, but
Do you think you can change that guy's heart?
[ There's a pause before he sends the next message, and from the spot where he's sitting on his bed, he leans back against the wall that separates their rooms. ]
I just kind of figured that if anyone could do something about this, it'd be you.
I don't have anything with me that would make it possible... not in the way I'd usually change a heart.
[ The app, his Persona, his weapons, let alone his team. It's not a one man job, but... man he'd love to defang someone as potentially dangerous as that guy. It'd be one less thing to worry about, at least. ]

[ He bites his lip, not sure what else to contribute under these circumstances, and there's another pause before he hits send again. ]
I'm glad you're here.
[ ... ]
I mean, I'm not! Because obviously you should be back changing our society with the Phantom Thieves, not stuck here.
