When Yosuke began to complement Naomi she just stayed silent, and stopped, she listened to him say she wasn't like any of the other girls that he'd known and he didn't want her to be like any of them, when he began to cry, Naomi watched him cry and laugh as he pleaded with her to help him with the situation they were in, when he said " I wanna work this out with you," Naomi hugged him.But the show of affection was brief and she let go of him," Wipe away your tears. you look like a coward." Naomi told him before she turned away from him," You'll lead the way, if we find more bodies I'm collecting the I.Ds. Also I have to ask this but do you still have your scrap of paper from the bullshit ritual with Mayu ?" she asked, she gave him a straight face as she showed her scrap from her I.D holder.

As brief as it was, the hug from Naomi was all Yosuke needed to pull himself out of the emotional gutter he placed himself in. She cared enough to hug him, not just let herself be hugged. Even if it was a tactical decision, she hadn't recoiled or anything. Besides, sometimes it's nice to be lied too. Anyways, Yosuke wiped his face with the sleeve of his shirt, and began walking ahead of Naomi. She asked him about the scrap of paper he lost, and he simply replied "Nah, dropped it before I even fell down that giant-ass hole in the middle of our classroom. I think I saw it fall down with us, but that may have been my eyes playing tricks on me." Yosuke said, looking back at Naomi. "Why? Do you think it's important? I thought we weren't getting out of here alive?" Yosuke asked with a grin. "Or, has my infectious optimism finally taken hold?"
