[Thank you for not calling him on it, Ruby, he'd rather not lose the man-card he's trying to actually obtain for himself. But he listens carefully and it doesn't take a genius to really understand what she's saying. He's read enough comics to get it.
And...it's sad, isn't it? That the world of Remnant's falling apart and that the cities are their only strongholds, that people like Ruby are the only ones who can defend a world that's succumbed to monsters. So he doesn't think much of squeezing her hand tighter and humming to himself.]
Sounds kinda like this place, too. Look at everything outside of the colony walls. Guess it's just all the more reason I've gotta try harder to make sure you can come visit me when all of this is over. You can meet the rest of my friends and see a normal ocean and when the sun sets in San Fransokyo it's probably the coolest thing I've seen. [Focus on the good things, not what Ruby's going back to.] As long as you don't meet Yama in real life, we'll be good.
