[ Not even Sakura can say that she hasn't been annoyed by her siblings' protectiveness from time to time—Takumi is less vigilant, just because being one of the youngest chafes him more than it does her, but Ryoma and Hinoka are natural protectors. Ryoma especially... it probably doesn't help that he's so much older than she is, and their father died when Sakura was very young—he took on a more fatherly role after that, for all that he was young too.
She tends to forget... but at the time he was actually younger than she is now. To her, Ryoma has always seemed grown up. Her dear older brother... all of her siblings...
She nods in understanding, her small smile curving sympathetically. She's sure he loves his brother more than anything, just like she does, so... so she doesn't want to see him beating himself up. ]
I-I think... it's hard to appreciate something fully when you have it right there.
[ She remembers how much she'd missed any of her siblings whenever they left for battle... how much she worried about them and prayed for their safe returns. That kind of separation... and this kind now... they really put things into a different perspective. ]
