Hershel, yes hmm. Not quite the king of all shitlords, but not quite the shy, unassuming British doormat that he seemed at first. Well, to be fair, he is a doormat. But he's also demonstrated quite a bit of resilience in this game. Strength from weakness?
Hershel remains one of Heiji's closest friends; he trusts Hershel implicitly and were anything ever to happen to Hershel, he would be very upset. He's actually on Heiji's 'would not murder anyone' list, and space on that is... limited. So you're not allowed to die, Mr. Layton.
Heiji does occasionally get frustrated with how accommodating Hershel is, I mean come on Hershel don't just sit there and take it while Alfendi calls you a swine FIGHT BACK, SMASH A PIE IN HIS FACE. HAVE A BACKBONE. And sometimes he wonders if it's because Hershel really is that nice or if he just doesn't
really
have a lot of self-esteem.
Still, he's a lot freer at discussing his concerns and feelings than most, and he's always up for bandying around theories or other ridiculousness. He does have a tendency to worry about everyone, which in this round is actually pretty justified. But Hershel can't exactly afford to be running around looking after people this round, what with him slowly starving.
In general, Heiji worries a bit about how the warehouse will affect Hershel long-term, though at least he doesn't have Sasuke's problem of keeping everything to himself. He's probably the most well-suited least well-suited test subject here, because although he certainly doesn't seem super tough, he actually has a rather strong streak of determination in there and in Heiji's opinion, the world could use more kind people than tough people.
It's safe to say that it completely baffles Heiji how freely Hershel can talk about random romantic shit it's weird that's not okay and how much enjoyment he seemingly gets out of it, but Heiji is also like four inches taller or something so ha!!!! Out of all the people in the warehouse, Heiji trusts Hershel and Snake the most, and it goes without saying that he'll do everything in his power to make sure Hershel is ok.
Edit: oh yeah and by the way, GOD HERSHEL STOP TRYING TO GET HIM TO FEEL FEELINGS. maybe he just doesn't have that many feelings about dying or whatever, how about that.
