["If" being the key word in that. She mumbles something under her breath shortly after that, actually; it's hard to make out, but it sounds like, "I'm surprised that you are."
Rin thinks to ask him about it, actually, but decides it would be too embarrassing. She'd have to admit just how poorly she feels. Here she's sitting in the infirmary with two broken ribs, and a arm that's more bruises, stab wounds, and muscle and nerve damage than flesh.

[Admittedly, a lot of them are tragedies... Surprise, heroes and famous historical figures don't always get a happy ending. But she smiles anyways, thinking about it, mumbling into her blanket.]
Because of my training, I'm familiar with lots. It'd be harder to find something you wouldn't like, I bet.
