[It's quiet, Akira's little sigh of relief, but he is relieved to hear Ginger's answer. He can think badly about himself all he wants, but Akira knows a good person when he sees one.]

Good. I can't fix something that isn't broken anyway.

[And maybe Ginger feels that he is broken beyond repair, but Akira sees things differently. He sees someone hurt, someone for whom life surely hasn't been fair... but he doesn't see a problem that needs fixing.]

But if you lose your way, you can count on me to set you straight. You have my word.

[And as with all the best promises, they're sealed with fistbumps. Bump on it, Ginger!]
