I just think "physical intimacy" is a really funny thing to say out loud!
[Never mind that she just said it herself to send that message. Anyway,]
Anyway if that's the problem, that's kind of your fault, anyway. It'd be awkward for him to ask me about it I guess since I was his leader, so it's on you to fix his misconceptions haha
[But then a pause. Oh... is weighing on him? Still?]
I suppose he is just a child.. however, I only wanted to know if you had accidentally implied something to him. because not that I wouldn't be flattered but I must confess that I don't think of you in that light.
I don't know the details, but he mentioned wanting to protect you and ensure your happiness "this time".
Hmmm... I don't think you're my type anyway, don't worry!
[Like not ruling it out completely, but while the wanton violence might be Akira's thing, it's not really hers.]
Anyway, that's sweet of him. Ken-kun is a really good kid -- he's been through a lot. I just want to make sure he's living for himself and not worrying about what me or the others would want from him, you know?
[Sorry that the speech-to-text picks up her snort of amusement. Like a business transaction? Hilarious.]
I think if I try to tell him that, he'll just deny that he's doing it. It's not really my style, anyway. He'll be able to figure it out with a little guidance, I'm sure of it.
He might be young, but his heart is really strong.
Ken was ten when he joined SEES. He went through a lot before that. If he has to room to grow, I think he'll go really, really far with whatever he chooses to do.
Mmhm. And you know how much weirder our lives got after our awakenings, so...
I guess what I'm trying to say is, it'd be nice if you guys could hang out more. I think it would be really helpful for him to get to know Persona users who aren't part of SEES.
[Oh buddy, shall she count the ways in which he's wrong? She's framing it as if it's Akechi helping Ken, but she's 99% sure it's really the other way around in terms of benefit.]
I think you'll be surprised! If nothing else, think of it as a personal favor to me that you can call in later.

maybe you should tell him that? however, i believe that is ultimately something he needs to realize on his own.

most likely. people hardly ever react well when their weaknesses or other shortcomings are brought up. it's only natural for human to be defensive.
i expect no less from a fellow persona user.

[Not consciously, anyway, but it's something she'd managed to avoid nonetheless just by trying to guess the right things to say.]
How old were you when you first awakened your Personas, Goro? Like, fully, I mean.

Why?

So try not to give him too many weird ideas!
no subject
but I must admit that is exceptionally young to be awakened to such heavy power. I believe I might've been youngest in our time.

we shall see. he is interesting child but as things are I don't think there is much for me to gain from spending time with him.
