[Hm. He's not sure if he was expecting a follow-up or not (he assumes, anyway, that this has something to do with him finding Akutagawa in a...precarious position recently).]
[It's odd. With Akutagawa now an adult again, but with memories of the bond they made when he was young still fresh in Oda's mind, Oda's not sure what sort of line they tow anymore. He really doesn't know the man all that well; in ways, he knows him better than ever.]
I saw that you'd lived a difficult life. You survived despite that. To me, that has to be the opposite of weakness.

I know the username. What's up?

About the event that transcended recently, my younger self. First I like to extend my gratitude and apologize for any ill behavior.
[He sends this first, then another quickly follows.]
Second, if you could erase the image of my younger self.
[He really hates his weaker self.]
no subject
Anyway, there's no need to apologize. Nobody here chose for that to happen.
You were just surviving the only way you knew how. I get it.
no subject
Thank you.
I mean to forget it happened.
Though not the worst, but still shameful.
no subject
I won't mention it again after this conversation if that's what you want.
I don't see that anything about it was shameful though. And I don't think any less of you.
[Thinks more highly of him, in fact.]
I just want you to know that, Akutagawa-san.
