Eight is quiet for a while again, looking squarely in Senku's eyes. Her head lowers, obscuring her eyes with her hair tentacles. "You should... say what you feel, sometimes. It's okay to be happy."
She reaches into her rucksack and pulls out her phone. She inches her way to Senku so that he could see. She flips it to her gallery. There are pictures of her time in Inkopolis: trying ice cream for the first time, taking a bedroom with a sole futon, a picture of her in the mirror wearing what appears to be a work uniform. A photo of other tentacle-like people sitting in a circle. She smiles beneath her hair. With a flick of the thumb, the pictures shift and there is a platform with confused looking people. The next is an interior of the train, followed by one of the stone garden car, music car, what appears to be her cabin... then people. Senku and Gen talking to each other privately at the dance. People dressed up in Halloween costumes. S'reee floating in the sea holograms. Devero and Eight smiling with a finished Della leg. The injured set upon stretchers on world #6416. The procession of people as the leadership changed. Rich performing a song in the theater hall. Memories. An entire three month span of Eight's memories for Senku to see.
Even if the message was lost in translation, her actions meant to convey. 'This is mine. This is what I choose to protect with my life.'
