[Yuzu and Ochako really are two very selfless individuals - perhaps that's why they're such good friends. Ochako would sooner destroy herself than see anyone else suffer - that's just the sort of person she is, Hero or no. She's kind, and always does her best to help those in need and support them. It's why her goal to become a good hero changed. A Hero who saves - that's who she wants to be.

She can't do that if she's afraid of the consequences, afraid of getting hurt, or collecting scars, or even getting killed. The trials taught her that difficult decisions have to be made sometimes, risks have to be taken...and when all other options have been snuffed, sacrifice is the only one left. It's not ideal, and certainly not something that even she wants to really do - Ochako will always look for a way around it - but...it exists. And if she hesitates even for a moment, she won't be the only one sacrificed.]

I will, I promise. If anything does go wrong, I'll know to reach out to you, okay? Or have one of my friends do it. But I'm going to train more and make sure that doesn't happen - so try not to worry too much, Yuzu-chan. Okay?
