The correct pronoun to complete Sebastian's response is "mich". So the completed sentence is "Ja, sie findet mich auch freundlich."

Extra: In German, pronouns change depending on their case. The cases are nominative, accusative, dative, and genitive. In this sentence, we are dealing with the accusative case, which is used for the direct object of a sentence (the person or thing directly receiving the action of the verb). Since Sarah is the subject who is finding someone else friendly, and Sebastian is responding about himself, he should use the accusative form "mich" for "I/me". Here are the pronoun forms for "I/me" in the four cases:

- Nominative (subject): ich (I) - Accusative (direct object): mich (me) - Dative (indirect object): mir (me) - Genitive (possessive): meiner (of me)

The other options "du" (nominative "you"), "dich" (accusative "you"), and "ich" (nominative "I") do not fit because they represent either the wrong person or the wrong case. Sebastian is talking about himself, not Peter, so he must use the first person singular pronoun in the accusative case.
