( that finally gets arisu to look down at him, pulling back enough to get a good look at his face. not that he doubts this is what chishiya believes about himself — he hasn't exactly been quiet about his low opinion of himself, even if he's more likely to play it off as a joke than with any sincerity. arisu knows what that's like. and while he can't see whatever it is chishiya sees when he looks at him — he does see chishiya. he sees him trying. he sees that he's always been trying, even if at one point that try was balanced out by sacrificing arisu. borderland might've shown the very worst depths of people's souls, but arisu doesn't necessarily think people should be judged on the worst of themselves. chishiya did bad. look at him now, doctoring for no pay, fixing the problems wrong with the universe, one world at a time. why not judge him on that good, instead? )
You've always been good.
( again, it's decisive. he giggles a little. his hand reaches out and boops him on the nose. )
