"Haha, new refugees are usually the more vocal about it. Mouths to feed, and all." Minato continued as he relaxed the tension in his own shoulder, then neatly cleaned up his work space while he spoke.

"Then, people who wish they could fight better so they can help more." If he was 100% encouraging of this or not, he couldn't say. It wasn't bad to have a goal to aim for, but... he hated seeing people get roughed up. It can't be helped, people can't grow without mistakes, and the end of the world is still coming regardless. He'd been less active on the frontline too as they needed him here, more.

Minato heard the bad things too, sometimes, not just about Elsa but also some other Heroes--but he was good at staying unfazed with whatever he didn't see with his own two eyes. Gossip was common in waiting halls, but he was getting better at focusing on the good things. Otherwise, he believed, he might revert to his old self that didn't care about anything, and nobody needed that.

"...I see..." It didn't sound like Minato was telling her a falsehood to boost her morale. Not that she really needed a reason to fight, as the need to survive and protect as a true hero was plenty of motivation in and of itself. But even so? It was nice to hear that there were some in the world who appreciated her efforts. It made her feel warm inside.

Elsa watched him curiously as he worked. "And you?" she bluntly asked, lowering her lashes faintly as she tipped her head to one side. "What is it that you say?"

She certainly hoped he wasn't one of the people who wished to fight better in order to feel helpful, but if that was the case, she would certainly do what she could to correct that viewpoint.
