[the glowing eye is odd, but all things considered, hikage's been dropping so many bombshells on him tonight that he's not sure if it's the oddest thing at the moment.
belph doesn't understand why hikage seems to trust him so much. it occurs to him that he's been handed something precious, and something far too easy to shatter, and he doesn't know if he's suited to protect it.
(why does hikage want to believe in him when even she couldn't, in the end?)
still, his tone less flippant than usual, he responds.]
