Who: Nemesis, Hurricane, you!
Where: ?Somewhere?
When: Day 496

[ The sound of an engine roars through the city, unfamiliar to any of you. What is that—? That thing, flying in the sky—Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Or—

Is it a giant mech adorned with naginatas and a shield, flying through Tokyo-F at great speed? Is it Hurricane and Nemesis, coming to say their goodbyes? Or is it the sound of their departure. . . ? ]

One more hug for the road.

[And, tugging him in]

[happydreamed]

[Squeeeeeze.]

You'll do amazingly out there. I am certain of it.

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Squeezes back]

Fingers crossed, right?

[happydreamed]

Anyone who hurts you will have me to answer to.

[crossmyheartandhope]

You gonna give em what-for?

[happydreamed]

Absolutely. They'll surely regret laying a finger on you.

[crossmyheartandhope]

You're the best, doc.

[happydreamed]

That is the least I can do for you.

[And he can't even really do that much. If someone hurts Hurricane, he'll be helpless to protect him.]

[crossmyheartandhope]

You've done way more than that for me already.

[happydreamed]

It doesn't feel enough.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Well -- I promise, it's a whole lot.

[happydreamed]

...If you're certain.

[If Hurricane promises, then he has to believe him, right?]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Sure I'm sure. You know how many games you been there for me after?

Cause it was a lot.

[happydreamed]

Anyone would do the same, in my position. We are a team.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Well... I'm glad I had you on mine, then.

[happydreamed]

Heart Soldier has been good to me. -And you most of all.

[crossmyheartandhope]

I been trying, anyway.

[happydreamed]

You are the reason I had the courage to face the rest of the unit. Without you, I don't know if I'd be able to move forward from my past.

[crossmyheartandhope]

You're a brave guy. You woulda figured it out, for sure.

I just gave you a little nudge.

[happydreamed]

You have far more faith in me than I have in myself, even now.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Cause you don't got anywhere near enough faith in you.

[happydreamed]

That may not change for a long, long time, I'm afraid.

[Or even get worse, depending.]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Well -- guess I gotta have enough faith in you for the both of us.

Spoilers, I do already.
