Echidna:  "But it is my belief that an answer means more when one must take an excessive time to arrive at it. I was hoping that you would arrive at your answer as a result of racking your brain…but it would seem the trial unfortunately came too late for you to amuse me to the fullest, more’s the pity." Echidna made a morose sigh.

Subaru:  Knotting his brows at her words, Subaru slowly realized it for himself. "A girl told me, a totally helpless no-good guy, that I’m her hero. That’s why I’ve already accepted how much I come up short. I don’t need to face my past now to teach me that."

Did you truly not suspect even once that this image of your father was at odds with what you believed?" When Subaru seemed to cling to her, Echidna indulged him, pounding home point after point. "You thought they didn’t know, but in your heart, did you really want to conceal it? Can you truly say you didn’t want a fictional father and an idealized mother to know all along, out of the self-serving desire to be loved in spite of them knowing?"
