[ maya expected it, but.... she just feels guilty. that seems to be a running theme with her. ]
[ it's still such a shock to her, too, that people get so angry for her sake. the only person who really went to bat for her like this... was phoenix. ]
[ it's really touching. but she doesn't really feel like she deserves it. ]
Well... I'm alive right now, so I'm going to make the most of it.
[ the vibes here are.... bittersweet. happy, loving, but she misses mia so much nier can feel it himself ]
Really, really incredible! She's the strongest person I've ever known.... and so smart, and everything. You remember Nick from my memories, right? She was a lawyer, too, and she taught him everything he knows. She even bailed him out a bunch of times after she died.

Of course he’s angry. There’s a deep well of rage. ]
That’s… Unfair.
[ He feels even worse that he can’t do anything about it, so he has to accept it. Somehow. Some way. ]
We’ll get you back.
[ He has decided?? ]

... The present is the most important. [ Though Nier would prefer Maya to look forward. ] What did you see back there?
[ On the trip because he knows Maya left to help him instead. ]
no subject
[ he's right, though, and he should say it ]
.... My sister.
She's already dead, though.

Then confusion. ]
... How does she do that after death?
no subject
You know how I'm a spirit medium, right? In training. Well, I channeled her spirit to help Nick out.
no subject
Oh—so you actually can talk to the dead? That isn't... Fake?
no subject
[ maya is hurt by that, though it doesn't show on her face at all ]
No, it's real. Channeling spirits... I can call her spirit into me, for a little bit. To give her a chance to bail Nick out when he's in a pinch.

[ There's a sense of awe since Nier comes from a world where the dead is dead. There are no buts whatsoever. ]
no subject
Yeah... she really is amazing.
If she were here, we'd be done and gone with this lousy place already.
no subject
... I'm sure she's watching over us, at least. I want to think everyone is.

[ maya wishes she could reach her, there's a pretty deep melancholy feeling here ]
