[Arianna listens intently to every word. She wants to hear everything. She wants to believe everything, believe Yuuri over her own doubts.
She doesn't quite manage it. Her doubts are loud and persistent, and they've had plenty of time to build strength. This isn't her first battle against them, and it won't be her last, either. But... it helps. People have expressed sentiments like this to her before, but Yuuri's words have a weight to them, because of what she's saying, because of who's saying it. She can at least doubt her doubts.]
I... thank you, Rii-san.
[She can't stop herself from crying. Why can't she stop?]
Thank you. I... I am most fortunate to have you above all.
