[ Of course he has to compliment Dearka's skills. Not only is it just true, and thus worthy of praise, but Dearka's part of his team. And on Yzak's team, he only accepts and expects the very best of those on it. Himself being no exception to that.
He wasn't exactly expecting some of those words to hit him a little too close to home ... but there it is, he has more in common with his mobile suit than he ever though he would, and realized some of those phrases eerily applied to them just as much. Even when Dearka answers him - likewise dipping into the metaphor some - he feels it all too strongly. Resourceful, survivors ... in more than one sense of the word. Yzak is so constantly well aware of the fact that he's avoided death through sheer luck more times than he cares to count - including the one specific case that he knows he didn't deserve to avoid. ]

... but we'll handle it. [ Said with that prideful determination of his, emphasis on the we.
Dearka commiserating with him on those feelings eases the dour vibe - that Yzak put out there all on his own in the first place. So he sends him a glance, acknowledging, grateful, and then as he does, Yzak keeps stepping forward. ]
