[ He doesn’t acknowledge that little statement with an answer! Mostly because Akira is right. ]

My friends… I’m shocked you believe I have any.

[ Just saying. ]

Gon, Killua, Leorio. They’re my closest friends, though I think I’d include Melody in that list as well. Gon is straightforward and earnest… the sort of person that’s valuable to have on your side, because he would do anything for you. Killua is smart and a bit rude, but he’s a good person. He tries his best to grow apart from the harsh environment in which he was raised.

[ There’s a lot more he could say about those two, but he’ll hold off for now. ]

Leorio is loud and annoying. He’s obnoxious and refuses to leave me alone. [ … ] But he’s a kind person, turning the tragedy he’s faced into something good to help others.

Melody has always known how to deal with the worst parts of me. She’s kind and considerate, but won’t back down from danger. I’m lucky to have her.
