Depends on you.

I need to tell my brothers about this.

If it's costing, that's something I should decide with the rest of my unit.

But until then, I'm happy to help you and your brothers.

You're the sweetest.

Ah, so you must feel better now that you can look at that memory without the emotional baggage. I'm glad.

Ehehe, thank you B-kun.

...It isn't as though I've forgotten how bad that all seemed, and I still have worries, but they're easier to manage.

It seemed pretty bad. We can talk about it if you like.

Or we could talk about anything else you want.

...I'll be honest, even now, I don't know where to start with all that.

What do you want? To pretend it didn't happen? Wait to see later with more memories? Try to understand it all now?

[Considers B carefully for a moment]

I don't know if I can just pretend after seeing those children. I'm worried about what it could all mean. I'm worried about those kids, and what happened to that girl... But I want to believe in him as well. I want to believe they'll make it.

Then hold onto that happier ending because right now there's no reason to not believe in it.

...Yes. Yes, you're right, for now I just have to have faith.

Mmm. No use worrying either way.

I'll do my best not to fret.

[Reaches for his hand]

Thank you, B-kun.

[lets her take it]

Ah...

No problem?

[Looks down at his hand, staring, yes this sure is a hand I can hold because I am not trapped alone in an endlessly repeating murder world, I don't need to be a lonely hero.]

I feel better for talking with you.

Not from the magic powers you used on yourself?

[Chuckles]

That helped too. But hearing someone else say I should believe makes things feel lighter.

May you be buyoant as a balloon.
