Honestly, Chihiro wasn’t sure if appearance was something that could frighten him any more. It was as if nothing surprised him anymore, even if it had been done to himself. He noticed the blood rolling down her cheeks, and furrowed his brows. That was something he himself knew was not pleasant. However, when she referred to him as a “friendly face”, he gave a shaky grin.
"Y-Yes, thank you! It’s a p-pleasure."
Shaking her head, she allowed herself to smile more. “No, the pleasure is mine…” Sonia reached out and gently pet his hair, smiling down at him. Slowly, it faded as she tilted her head.
"I hope…you’re not in much pain because of what they’ve done…"
When he was patted, Chihiro grinned. It was a nice gesture, and he didn't mind it in the slightest. Upon being asked if he was in too much pain, he shook his head no. A lie, of course, but also a partial truth. He's been accustomed to the constant burning in his body, and the constant agony of overheating.
"No, it's not too bad anymore, I've been here for a while now.... How long have you been in here, do you think?"
