She smiled a little, glad she had found something for him to be excited about. When he noted how far she had come, however, it faded a little, and she stayed quiet.
She had come a long way, and she hadn't done it on her own... It had definitely been for the better, and she wouldn't give up any of the transformation in exchange for anything, even the worst of it and the crushing loneliness she had endured because of her previous behaviors. The experiences she had shared had taught her so much, but while she longed to continue learning... she was so unsure of her future she couldn't bring herself to hope so much. Things were about to change...Was it worth it?
Blinking at herself, she forced the thoughts down again. Painful as they were, she had already resolved herself not to think on such matters for now, and she again looked to Yuri, still not meeting his gaze directly and unaware of how lengthy her pause had been. "I didn't do it on my own," she told him softly, still stroking Byakko's ears.

She shook her head a little to agree with him, though she wasn't entirely sure his question hadn't been rhetorical. There wouldn't have been reason to change had she not come to Kodo... She had to wonder if she even would have known that such a change could exist, or that her attitude could ever be looked down on. When they lapsed into silence again, she respected it, watching as Byakko slowly rose, stretched, then padded off into the kitchen in search of water.
After a few minutes of quiet reflection, she shifted, tentatively, and looked over at him, finally. The words caught in her throat, and she took a second to recompose herself, before, "I... I'm not sure I ever thanked you for that. For... helping me, I mean."

Her smile disappeared once more, but she didn't mourn it, knowing it was false anyway. Instead, she lowered her gaze to her knees, feeling that anything she said might shatter everything all at once.
"...I'm still a selfish brat," she said quietly, her throat tight. "I know I should say something, but I don't even want to think about it right now." He had every right to know. He, out of everyone she knew and cared about on the island, should have been the first to know. But to tell him now... to ruin everything...
She was nearing vulnerability, it scared her, and suddenly, she found herself looking for anything else to distract them.
