Everyone---[Oh no. Not this public speaking thing again. Shu's nervous. He hopes he doesn't make a fool out of himself in front of all these people.] I'd like to know something.

I thought that maybe someone here might know the answer. Is it, normal to meet someone from your own world but....they don't have the same memories as you?

Inori.

Inori remembers something different. She says I protected the school with Ayase, but it doesn't make sense. I don't think she's lying either, so. She wouldn't do something ...like that.

[At least he thinks so. Segai's words manage to bestow a sense of insecurity on him.

Beware of those who tell you to believe in yourself, Shu. Inori might very well wish to use you and removing anyone who might take away that control through this manipulation.

Is it really alright to believe in her and the Funeral Parlor? He doubts them for a minute.]

[Pause.]

For those of you who just arrived, I guess.

Please, be careful. I don't want to see any of you get hurt here. There's a hospital in the Sigyn district and... [Wait, he's in no position to be telling them what to do. Stop right there, Shu.]

That's about it.

[What on earth did he just say to everyone?]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

She's one of those people who I can really believe in here. I know it's kind of selfish, but that's how I feel.

Don't you have someone like that too?

I don't think it's selfish at all.

I have Nezumi here with me, so I feel like I can make it through even if troubles arise.

[NO STOP]

I see. In that case it should be okay. For me to rely on Inori that is.

We're taking care of each other, so.

[No, Shu. It's not okay. BOTH OF YOU STOP.]

Mr.Nezumi. He must be important to you. That's the feeling I get when I hear you say that.

Nezumi is the one that taught me how to live. He pulled me from the sheltered everyday life I knew and showed me the way the world truly works. I owe everything to him, and without him I couldn't live on. That's the way I truly feel.

Seriously?

If he's that important to you then you should stick by him, I mean.

Sorry, what am I saying again?

I'm trying not to depend entirely on him, but I'm thankful that he's here with me.

It's fine if you do that.

Inori's here too and... it's a little relieving. I can kind of get that.

I don't want to be the type of person that relies solely on others, but it's more comforting than I can put into words. I'm glad you understand that.

It's nothing, really.

So is Mr.Nezumi here? In the city?

Nezumi and two of his mice are here with me. I think it would be lonely to be brought to a place like this and have nobody that understands you, so I'm fortunate that they're here.

Do you understand that feeling too?

You seriously have two mice?

[Consider him shocked.]

I guess so. I mean. Inori's the one who's been by my side this whole time.

Even back home. It's the same for you, right?

They may not be mine, but I was the one that named them.

[And he pauses for a moment.]

My Mom and Safu have always been with me too. Even if they aren't there in person, I know that they're thinking about me as much as I think about them.

Is that really okay?

[This is weird.]

That's right... your mom must care for you a lot. I might not know anything about Miss.Safu, but she's important to you.

Well, Haruka's never around because of work. We still care about each other lots. Distance doesn't matter too much, I guess.

I think it's important that they have names since they each have a different personality. Even their squeaks are different.

[This is a perfectly normal conversation, what are you talking about....]

I'm sure she feels the same way as you do toward her.

You can notice that much about them? Amazing.

[No really consider Shu shocked.]

I guess so.

Is that not something people would normally notice?

[He thought it was just Nezumi....]

I don't think so...

At least I didn't.

[Gosh Shu feels dumb. Clearly he should pay attention to things like this now.]

Maybe it's just me, then. They're my friends, so I spend a lot of time with them.

[WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT]

Maybe.

[Nervous laughter oh no why is this so awkward....]

It's good then.

That you have friends to hang around.

We're friends too, aren't we? You and I.

We were? Um...

[Confused stare. When did this happen? Clearly he's not paying attention enough.]

I guess we were.

[UNSURE.]

I think of you as one. [....] Is that alright?

I don't mind.

[Someone wants to be his friend ;A; So happy. Except he feels bad because his social skills are poor.]

It's just that...

[Awkward pause.]

I have a hard time making friends.

[Okay he admits it.]

They aren't even sure if they consider me one yet.

[Stares at Yozora. Stares at Yahiro.]

I was just surprised, that's all.

I have a difficult time making friends too, but I'm slowly learning.

[A pause.]

Thank you for being my friend.

No, thank you for being so open about it.

You can learn a bunch of things here, I guess.
