[ She's trying to be better and rely on him more often instead of taking on everything herself so while it does take her a couple of minutes to decide on her next actions, she does go through with them. Pushing the Cerevice towards him, it shows the absence of two contacts that would have been there in her favorites. ]
I should see it for myself, but I'm certain I would just get angry.

[He looks but ends up shrugging.]

Hope really isn't that bad of a thing, is it? [ Her voice is light, almost as if she wants to foolishly pursue it.
Fortunately for the both of them, she won't. ] The question is whether it's coincidence or an attack against me for my defiance against their laws.

Would you like my personal input on the matter?
[He may as well ask.]

This reads just like any other normal set of people that have left. I wouldn't look too hard into the reasoning. It isn't like they have ever reached out to punish people for the acts of others.
I understand. If you need to cry or something, let me know and I'll come home.
What would you do if I started crying while you were here, Archer?
[ There's no point for him to be around if she felt that way. ] It's not as if I have any attachment to them. Remember? I don't recall much of my past.
... and I didn't really write much about them.

I don't know what I'd do. Nor do I want to try to guess if you would or not.
[He'd honestly have no idea. Not to mention that, but he's sure Rin might cry one day. ONE DAY.]

...alright. I won't worry about you today while I'm out.
[Unless Rin says he should. Which, knowing her, she might.]

I can't control what you think. [ Hmph hmph. ]
You understand what the problem is and have accepted there's little that can be done in regards to it. All we can do from here on out is move forward. I just might be a little sensitive to the subject for a while.

I won't bring it up then.
[But since both are confirmed gone, well....yeah, he won't bring it up.]

I-I just wanted to check on you and see if you were okay and not really tired or anything! Anyway, just--
... Oh, this is Mary!
[ CLICK.
She tried. ]
... Oh, this is Mary!
[ CLICK.

I happen to be fine. You should spend more time worrying about-
...this is Archer, by the way.
[CLICK.
Mary reaps what she sows.]

I-I know it's you! That's why I called!
[ BE MERCIFUL. ]
[ BE MERCIFUL. ]
And I can't tell that you're you? Try not to make it so easy.
