There's no need to fear the past. The past is just a memory.

[LEMONS...HELP THAT MAKES HIM REALIZE WHAT IT IS.]

...ah. That.

Did you four save Kyouka at least?

[silicone]

[ he nods quickly. ]

... We blew up, but. Kyoko had her ability prepared, so.

She undid it. [ just the mental equivalent of what it's like to experience an explosion head-on, bits and pieces of it. ] It was... a lot.

[allmenare]

Yeah. Even if the death is undone, the memory remains. It's why she doesn't like using it if she doesn't have to.

[silicone]

[ he just.

nods slowly at that like.

yeah.

and then is about to lean against him but just falls straight through fukuzawa because his timing is shitty and he misses the signs of a glitch... so he's going to groan and lay on the ground for a moment. excuse him. ]

... Just glad it's over.

Kind of wish we'd gotten to eat with her, though.

[allmenare]

[Oh shit. Even if he's glitching out for a few seconds he crouches down to try and help Eiden. It takes a few tries before his hand is finally solid on Eiden's shoulder.]

Maybe we should sit down somewhere.

[silicone]

Hah... yeah, that would probably be a little better, huh.

[ he's flushed from the booze before, and a little more flushed now, but they can find a spot to settle down with the sake between them. eiden will just enjoy the press of their shoulders, how he can look at him and feel how nearly real he is.

it's terrifying to have to let him go.

but that's... well. it is what it is, this path they walked down. ]

[allmenare]

[Shoulder-to-shoulder they can still bask in each other's presence, the ache of the red string tugging them together soothing just a bit.]

See? Much better.

[They can still intertwine their fingers like this too!]

[silicone]

[ fingers... gud... he squeezes his hand briefly. ]

Yeah. This is good...

[ less chance of falling and eating shit. he turns to look at him quietly now, as if trying to commit him to memory more so than he already has. ]

Staying like this... it's the most calm I've felt in a while.

[allmenare]

Then we can stay like this for now.

[Let Eiden rest! Fukuzawa is just going to gently tuck Eiden's hair behind his ear.]
