[Even though it's telepathy, you can almost hear the faint smile in her voice. She wasn't expecting anything like that from A2 given their mutual confusion and unfamiliarity with these kinds of things, so it was a truly pleasant surprise to see the gift.]
[And it's clear in her tone that that's what matters to her. A2 tried to take care of him for her when she never even had to accept her final request. No matter how things ended, she'll always be grateful to her for that. Always.]
It's the same for me. If you ever need me for anything, I'm here for you.
[ she tried. she tried with what she got, and in the end she couldn't fulfill that promise. but there's no anger in 2B's tone, no discomfort, not even after knowing the truth of what happened. and maybe it's enough, because they're all here now, and while she had thought that the three of them would never be able to get along or even be cordial with each other, she has spent more time with 2B and 9S than she ever did back on their world. it's been more than a month since she first arrived on the island, and in that time, she has come to understand them not as enemies, but as comrades. perhaps even friends.
and that thought is humbling in and of itself. ]
I know.
[ there's more she could say, more she should probably say, but there's weight behind those words. no matter how slow it was at first, they had formed a bond here -- though she supposes 2B had always, in some ways, trusted her to begin with. it's been a long, long time since she felt it, that sense of belonging. ]
[If anything, she thinks it should be the other way around. A2 tried, and maybe it wasn't enough, but at least she had the chance to. That's more than she can say for herself. As difficult as she finds it to let go of the past, she wants to at least focus on the now, and now? They all have each other. For better or worse, of all the people from their world that could have been chosen, they're the only three YoRHa here.
And she's glad for that. For this opportunity. For the three of them who've never had the chance for peace, to simply know each other without having to fight. To even become friends, all of them.
Circumstances aside, she's glad it was A2 she asked.]
But you're welcome. [A pause, and then:] I'll let you know when I decide what to do.

I know I... I couldn't take care of him like you wanted me to, in the end. But I'll always be here if you need me.
