[His friend was in danger. Akira may be new to this friendship thing, but he's pretty sure that saving him was the right thing to do. He's...a bit surprised that you still want to talk to him after all that, too.]
[Maybe it reassures Akira to know the President is just as surprised? He doesn't even know what's possessing him to leave all this freedom for them to go and try... fishing. It sounds ridiculous. Maybe it is desperation, maybe it is some sort of actual trust (speak about terrifying). Either way, it had turned his way of thinking upside down and now he's trying to cope somehow.]
Huh.
[Skeptical look, despite the sunglasses.]
You would do good at keeping in contact with the person controlling those missiles though.
[It does. It's probably because the world could end soon and desperate measures are needed, in his opinion. He doesn't think he would be considered trustworthy after recent developments, even if he doesn't regret them.]
It's a bit difficult to handle a phone and a boat at the same time. [Also, someone was about to fall into the ocean, but let's not talk about that.]
The phone is attached to the sleeve of a suit though.
[Well. It's an impractical squeaky thing, but it's still something you can wear... Mostly the President feels an immense need to criticize right now, to keep up his own self-esteem and deal with how powerless he'd felt. It's definitely not been enjoyable. He doesn't like giving responsibility out of his hands.]
I will be more careful. [Hopefully. If his mun lets him know what happened after that call. (He really doesn't want to think about the possibility of time running out).]

Says the man who went on various friendly excursions with JF1.
I will trust you for now, but if you take any longer than necessary we will do it our way. I won't risk much more.

I know. We won't waste the time we have.

[The President sighs. He will be very, very glad when this mess is over with, one way or the other.]
...good luck.
[And in case you fail: he never said that. There is no evidence.]

Thank you.

You'll need it.
[And while the President always enjoys being right, protecting the earth means something more to him, so... go and win this thing, Yamada.]
