Hiryuu's estimation of C has actually gone up quite a bit. At first she was rather pissed at him with that Maiden Tower thing because it seemed like he was using B as a way to make points without consulting him or taking his safety or feelings into consideration. (Which he wasn't, but B covered for him. So.... hmn.) B basically painted him out to be a more considerate person than he really was being. So. She realized that she had gotten some things wrong about him, and she wanted to put things to right. She still goes back and forth between being really frustrated with his antics and just curious/more amiable some, but lately it's trending more toward the latter.
She doesn't see him as a Project at all. Like yes she is concerned about him, and she would like him to be able to express himself, but that doesn't mean she sees him as broken or a thing to FIX. She would be really insulted by that. Literally, everything that she said about wanting to see a real expression from him was just saying she wanted him to be honest with her instead of feeling like he has to pretend. Pretending is tiresome, and grating! But neither pretending at being happy nor being inwardly terrified and angry make him broken or in need of fixing. And also, since he's always pretending--she feels like whatever emotional responses she's actually having, they're not "real" because the face that he's showing her isn't real. She wants to know how she should ACTUALLY feel about him. She wants to know, if they do actually become friends, and if he's actually supposed to be allies with him--is this someone she really would want to be friends with? She's talked about it some with Phoenix but honestly she just hopes that they have some way to let off steam... him and B and E.
