[Part of him really was expecting mockery here. He doesn't know Wolfwood, and that sigh at the start... he's ready to be called a disappointment, too, but that doesn't come either.

It's... familiar, in a weird way. It's so convenient he almost wants to call it bullshit. How could Wolfwood of all people know how Add feels? But it's not like he read Add's mind before deciding what to say, and his abrasive personality speaks for itself. The same type of abrasive behaviour that always seems to get Add into shit... isn't that why Wolfwood is always getting on his nerves? Doesn't this just make sense?

(He bites his tongue not to comment on the "hero" part. That's not really important right now, anyway.)

... but even if they're similar, it's obvious from this that Wolfwood has his shit together and Add just... doesn't. Even this Wolfwood beats him at? He can say all that disgustingly honest shit and still end it with "I want you to be happy, too"?]

Ugh, give me a break. I don't need your fucking pity party. [This whole day has been exhausting. He sits down in the air, dynamos rearranging to make a seat for him.]

This is about Ain, so as long as he's happy with it... we don't have to like each other, so you can stop adding pointless clauses on top.
