[how stupid of her. she hadn't given much thought about how other people would feel about Dead Master's disappearance. she's initially tempted to reply and blurt out that Dead Master will return as she had several other times to other people, but the underlying fear can't be shaken off no matter what she does.
as much as she wants to remain confident in Dead Master's eventual return, Shooter's finding it hard to rely on her dumb optimism now. so she doesn't say anything, unable to figure out how to properly respond to Ozaki's grief.]
