Someone else might be upset, or might look at her with pity. Feliks? Feliks has never had time for getting dragged down, but he's also not the sort to leave with his good mood and let someone he likes be sad alone.

"Yeah, 'cause I care so much about awkward. So you ask, I tell you, we get over it!"

He thinks about it-- who's still here, who's still here... "Fai and Yuui, duh. I heard Reimu's coming back, too, and like, Toph's a teacher now, and that Toshirou kid woke up, too? Some of the professors are still around, too, like Dr. McCoy and Professor Abs."

Which is Fai's completely appropriate name for Hijikata.
