[Well at least Kor being himself gives her an easy out here.]
I'm fine! The amulets have been acting really weirdly today, it must just be a part of whatever has gone wrong with them.
[Yup. That works.
Back to the bulk of his response though. He was scared? Pfft. Well at least she finally got through to him after everything was over! But still that... Isn't really very good is it... Especially now she's rethinking it all.]
... I didn't think anything could scare you Kor. You don't seem the type to be easily scared... I'm sorry. [The tingly warmth subsides as Farah focuses a little more, a pause following as she thinks where to go next.] But you understand why I refused you when you tried to help, right?
[There was a lot that scared Kor, even if he never showed it. But that's because he knew not to let fear rule his life. He could never let fear cloud his values or his duty.]
Of course I understand. [There's a brief pause.] But even so, I still want to help you. Even if I'm scared, if I see someone who needs my help, then I help them! ["If someone needs you help, you help them! Especially if they're a pretty girl", as his gramps would always say.] That's not because I think I have to, or that I should, but... Because I want to!
[Well... She's not sure if he really understands, honestly. Granted she didn't exactly give away a lot about the memory and her feelings about it. But at least now she can see he just. Genuinely wants to help.]
... I'm the same, you know? If I see somebody who needs help I can't sit still. It's like every bone in my body wants me to jump into action. [She sounds a little more relaxed at that.] I do it because I want to help as well. I think.
[It's to atone for her past, that's the main drive there. But... When she feels so content doing it, is that really all her paying back for her sins or are those feelings more genuine.]
... Maybe we can figure a few things out together. [She might be asking for his help.]
[Kor catches onto that she's totally actually asking him for help, and it's something that brings him great joy. And it's something Farah will be able to feel over the connection, warm, gentle waves that feel like the rays of the sun, shining brightly in the sky.]
By the end of it, you'll come out of it not just thinking you want to help, but knowing you want to help. No problem, right?
[Well, feeling him grow happier is enough to make her feel happy to! In a way she's helping him by letting him help her... If she's making someone feel joy like this then it's hard to want to take it away.]
Right, no prob--! [Wait. He just said that.] Oh, yes... What you said.
[Way to take ikeru ikeru from her. Hearing Kor say it though gets her smiling even if it caught her by surprise. It's probably just a coincidence, but still.]
If everything goes okay, maybe... Maybe I can start helping others, and with style.
[Kor laughs, a smile growing on his face. He feels like the treatment's already started even before the Spiria Link, just because Farah's making a distinction here between how she's been helping people, and how she should be helping people. Helping not out of some desire to repent, but just because she wants to help.]
Heheh, that sounds more like it!
[A pause.]
Just let me know when you're ready to do this.
[He'll give her at least that much room with this.]
[Farah laughs as well, a good deal more subdued than Kor's own but still. The fact she's laughing along at all is a good sign.]
Right. I can't say when I know I'll be good... I might just let you know out of the blue one day.
[She'll have to build herself up to it. And then seize the moment when she's in a good place for trying. But she knows Kor doesn't mind doing stuff on the fly anyway.]
But yeah. I will let you know when I can. I promise, Kor.
