There's nothing to forgive. [ He means it. She should be kept safe. The priority of an Enforcer, at all times. Even as an Inspector, he would've done the same thing. Leaving a team without a leader is effectively crippling it. How dangerous it would be, if someone targeted that specifically. ]
I wouldn't follow my example, Inspector.
[ Too many mistakes, too many flaws. ]
Ah?
[ Her comment throws him a bit– that wasn't something he'd been expecting. Of course, it was quiet comment, nothing too outrageous. If she looks more red, he can't really tell. It could just be their closeness is making her warmer than usual. It could be the lighting. Or the wind. Or things that he's not good at differentiating between. ]
Please, it's not necessary. I'm happy to be of assistance in anything. [ His words are in earnest, tone level and warm. There's a small smile curling up the corner of his mouth, gaze a bit softer than usual. Gino's found himself becoming more and more fond of her as the days passed; this moment is no different. Sen is insistent on fair play and he finds it completely endearing. It helps that the two of them are amiable and somewhat like minded. The air between them is relaxed and comfortable on the way back to the tower– clean up has already been sent out to deal with the mess. ]
[Those were humble words, of a man who puts his duty above all else. Sen could understand this was why he could be considered difficult to work with: how much he cared for his team and his mission, whether he was a strict inspector, or a talented enforcer.
An inspector being turned into an enforcer? It's counted as a demotion. Nothing that will get you respect. He probably put himself down a lot because of this, but somehow, Sen knows that having not to worry about the condition of your psycho-pass, the state of your authority amongst your peers, it could be liberating. Ginoza may be a realist, but he needs more confidence. Not that she could talk, really. Especially after stuffing up and letting her mouth do the work before her mind. She could only be thankful that Gino decided to not further question that. Because she doesn't know how to answer.
Clearing her throat again--] A-ah, no it might not be necessary, but it is something I want to do. Our...ah...time together is short, no? I am allowed to treat you to something? I just don't know what you'd like. [She had to pay him back for all his hard work recently too. She was thinking of throwing a small party, just a small office lunch with all their peers, nothing extravagant. But it doesn't mean she can't give him more than that, she can do more for someone she's beginning to grow close to, right? Besides, he looks more relaxed like this, even after she suffered an injury. It's nice to see him like this, soft and pleasant. It rubs off on her, too.
With how the trip was going, smooth and with good company, she wanted it to continue after they get back to the tower too. Even if she was going to get fussed over, though the pain has now subsided thanks to glorious painkillers.]
