Komaru, are you terribly busy right now?
[It's three in the afternoon, so he shouldn't have interrupted sleep or mealtime. But if he has, he would certainly put this off for another day.
He seems to be in his apartment's kitchen. There's a kettle of water heating up.]

Would you like to come over for tea?
[It's terribly lonely all by himself, and Komaru is a sweet girl - she makes for excellent company.]

[A few bubbles pop up around him when she agrees.]
I'm at apartment [this sure is an apartment number not too far away from Komaru's.]

[He's quick to open the door and welcome her in.]
Hello, Komaru. How have you been?
[Not that it's been all that long since they've seen each other, but it's nice to ask.]

[ She flashes him a cheery smile and walks inside. ]
I've been doing fine. I found someone from my world here...well, actually, a bunch of people, but someone in particular that I know. I've been staying with her for a bit.
[ Which she's quite appreciative of, really. It's nice to have that kind of support, especially since her closest friend isn't here. ]
How about you? Have you been doing well?

That's wonderful to hear - I'm happy for you. It's a bit lonely, staying by yourself.
[Not that he would know, or anything.]
As for me, things are just fine. I have an interview for a job at a local cafe, so money matters should be taken care of quickly. The island seems nice enough, and I've met many interesting people.

Thank you.
[He'll just meander towards the kitchen now.]
Well, we're all in the same boat, so it isn't too surprising, really.

I'm an optimist, I admit.
[So he's wrong sometimes.]
Now, what's your favorite tea? I'll put some on for you.

There's nothing wrong with that. I'm like a reformed optimist myself, I guess you could say...
[ She used to be super optimistic, but after the Tragedy struck, she found herself quickly succumbing to despair because she felt it was easier that way. It was only after meeting Touko and having her encourage her that she started to have hope again. ]
Oh, just green tea is fine, thanks.

[Green tea it is. The water's hot, so he pours two teacups' worth and starts steeping the tea.]
Being an optimist is one of the most difficult things you can be, I think.

That's an interesting title. How do you get to be the Ultimate Hope?
[Is it a contest prize, or...?]
[Is it a contest prize, or...?]
Um, he defeated the mastermind behind that Tragedy I was telling you about...and ever since then, people started calling him the Ultimate Hope...?
[ That's as far as she knows, anyway. She wasn't around to witness it in person, and she's only ever heard of her brother's accomplishments through other people, so it's pure speculation on her part. It's a little hard to believe, even to this day, considering that her brother never used to be as inspiring as he was when she last talked to him. He was just as normal as she was and had the worst luck ever, so for him to all of a sudden be considered a hero...it was definitely shocking. ]
...Well, something like that, anyway.

Ah, so it's one of those titles you get by becoming a legend.
[He had one himself, sort of. Not nearly that pleasant of a title.]
Must be a bit stressful for you. Do people compare the two of you often?

[He can imagine.]
That doesn't mean you aren't as worthwhile as he is, you know. Just that you're less famous.

Wouldn't either. A quiet, peaceful life is much better suited to me than living in the spotlight.
Couldn't agree more.
Think the tea's done steeping.
[He passes her her teacup - enjoy.]
