[Oh my, Kato. Winking at him already? Not that he minds, that was pretty cute, actually...]
I am merely stating the truth! You really do deserve it.
But I do understand your reasoning. Out of the two of us, I am the closest to achieving our goal. And no matter who has the higher rank, the other will still be set.
[He's just really surprised Kato's willing to do it this way. He knows Kato, and he knows he'd like to be in a higher rank than just a Technician. They've talked about it numerous times in the past, about how frustrating it is to be stuck in one position. But now they might actually be getting somewhere.
Kato's putting a lot of faith in Dist if he's not worrying as much about his own status.
Moving his chair just a little bit closer, he gently places a hand on Kato's knee.]
If I get that promotion, we're going to have a grand celebration. I can promise you that.
