You can have one of mine. You know, when I was growing up, I thought babies came from flowers. That I was born out of the hope my parents held together - for their love to blossom or something silly like that.
[ And then his dad ruined everything pure about that idea. ]
So with this flower, I hope you can change in a way that makes you happy.
That's quite a sweet sentiment. Ginger is kind, isn't he?
Yamato takes the lily. He holds it delicately and looks at it with a fond, longing smile. The kindness he's been extended is not deserved, in his opinion, but he'll receive it nevertheless. It feels nice. ]
I...do my best to keep smiling, I guess. I don't want the fans to see me upset or sad. That's not what idols are here for.
[ As for that second part- ]
Just "Yamato"... I don't know about that. It's not really a side I'm proud of, or a side people really get to see. I've felt more like myself here than I have in a long time.

[ That’s a nice smile. A little sad, but Ginger gets it. ]
I don’t know if we’re wrong, but they’re probably right.

[ It's not a bad thing. It's a quality he envies, actually. ]
Do you still hold onto that, even when you've been wronged?
no subject
[ What a contradiction. ]
I don’t really care about what other people think though.

[ Same hat once again, Ginger, except that last part. ]
I kind of have to care about my image, though. It's my job to appeal to the public. It's what idols do...so I need to be pretty careful, back at home.

[ He does wonder though if the mask isn't real, then... isn't it just hurting everyone - fans and idol both - to believe in a hollow dream? ]
But that doesn't mean we can't cheer you on. So, I believe in you, Yamato.

He holds onto the flower a little tighter. ]
Thank you. I appreciate that a lot, Ginger.
[ He gently claps his hand on Ginger's shoulder. ]
Come on. Let's keep going to the courtyard.
