I don't know. Closing your heart also means you're protected even if you might be more lonely because of it.

[He leans his head on the table, thinking it over as he looks at where Anders is sleeping just a room away. Kaworu can't be another weight on his shoulders.]

I'm glad he'll be looked after no matter what.

Suppose that's true.

[ strohl says, thoughtful. he's heading to the stove, starting to pull out leftovers - kaworu can see some kind of meat and vegetable dish, something hearty and filling - as he takes it to the stove.]

It's a cost and a benefit thing. Risks and rewards. I think... you're going to get hurt, no matter what - lonely or otherwise. God knows I've been both. But I'm better for the people that I surround myself with, too.

Plus, we're going to be here for eight bloody weeks - and there're plenty of people here who've gone through it. I imagine we're made stronger when we can lean upon each other, with all those shared experiences.
