There's still a chance that there's someone at home who will step in -- someone who loves them just as much as Minato loves you.
[That's one of the truths of their lives, isn't it? Minato loves SEES, and he loves Ken especially. There's nothing that he wouldn't do to secure their safety, and Jaime hopes that everyone has that person, that one person who would do anything for them to keep them safe.
He knows that his family feels that way about him, after all. It's not like his Dad picks up his shotgun for just anyone.]
You're right that it doesn't happen all the time, and that it doesn't even happen that often... but it happens more than you think, Ken. I've seen it happen so many times now. But if they won't listen to that, all you can do is be there for them.
[He reaches out for Ken's shoulder and squeezes it.]
But it's not always easy being there for someone either.
[Poor Ken. He's been a support system for so many people now, but he's still so young.]
