[ He and Rinne haven't spoken much about the statues, they did get into a disagreement about him calling it all "bullshit." After meeting someone who said he was a statue, Jun doesn't quite believe any of this. He knows Hiyori's been working, finding out more information, and meeting more people than he has. Jun isn't sure what to do, he's not a God with shapeshifting powers, or anything else. He's just an ordinary, plain old guy. What can he truly offer anyone, anyway? ]
'Course I remember 'bout what she said. But y'know, it's pretty tough taking what she said seriously when it all sorta sounds made up. They can’t mess with our fate 'cause it’s been set in stone ever since we became idols.
[ Right now, all Jun can do is keep not believing any of it. And why would he? The lady from the Red Cardinal was the one who gave them those matching suits, so it just doesn’t add up. He gets that Hiyori is more likely to take things at face value and believe what people say, Jun’s not ready to buy into it so easily.
He just can't stay mad at Hiyori when he's on the brink of tears like this. It’s hard to keep being upset with him when you can see how much it’s affecting him. But that’s part of the problem—Jun's unsure whether he was supposed to figure out the rest.
Honestly, he doesn't even have a clue what "extending our existence" means. Sure, they've been here for months, but just because someone says something doesn’t make it true. Isn't that right? ]
... why didja keep that from me, Ohii-san? We agreed not to keep stuff from one another, and that's just... well, that's just what you did.
[ All he can do is be honest about how much it bothers him, especially after he helped with the memory task. What was the point of sharing everything with Hiyori if this didn’t mean anything? It wasn’t easy for Jun to open up about his past, so isn’t it understandable for him to be upset? ]
Look, we're not gonna turn into some statues or anything. You're seriously jumping to the worst-case scenario, Ohii-san. And 'sides, how does she even know what's gonna happen?
[ His breathing becomes shallow, not sounding pleased in the least. He knows Hiyori is smarter than this, but does Jun have any right to complain and stand his ground when he's no closer to finding an out? Man, Jun wants to leave this shitty, corrupt place more than anything.
All he can do is suck it up, taking a deep breath as he asks. ]
... d'you actually believe what she's saying as the truth?
