Can I sit here?

Hmm? Sure.

Regarding Ushio...

No matter how you look at it, she is in love with the Admiral, isn't she?

Ah...

Do you wanna pair them up?

That's not it...

W-what if...

I'm talking about a purely hypothetical what if here...

But what if I too love him, and then I tell this to her? What do you think will happen?

She will give you a pained smile...

...before she never again appears before you and him, I think?
