"Well, I'm pretty sure all the passengers do experience emotions.."

'Pretty' sure since it's not like Madoka knows absolutely everyone personally, but she can't say that she's ever ran into someone who didn't seem to experience them - or even just experience them in some complex way, the way Ten-Nank apparently does. Even Orisa, who was a robot, seemed to grasp and feel emotions from what it seemed like to Madoka..

And maybe that'll be useful information about the passengers to Ten-Nank? Madoka isn't sure if everyone at the Ministry is like them. The inspectors from a long time ago did seem to be like that though.

"I guess it's part of what makes this situation a whole lot more complicated.. Since it might make people feel one way or another about the train more quickly, and people seem to feel about it in a lot of different ways." Again, from what she's noticed. "Some people seem.. fond of the train? Like they're.. um, almost like they're friends, I guess.."

Madoka sounds like she finds that idea hard to understand though, much like she finds the idea of Ten-Nank only knowing shyness as a concept rather than an experienced reality hard to understand.
