I'm pretty sure it matters to the dead people???

Re: THE ROAD

[unbr8kable]

What're they gonna do about it? They're dead.

..........Nem ghosts are real here and they can get really angry.

So? You can't live your life being afraid of the dead. Just like go to a priest or an onmyouji or a ghostbuster or something and live your life--go get Griff and Jason and Sekhmet and Kohime and whoever else is in y'all's harem and do what you want for once. This's like the lamest "happy end" I've ever seen, honestly.

[softlyfalling]

I've never had a thing with Kohime, gods

Re: THE ROAD

[unbr8kable]

And that's just part of the problem! What're you waiting for? Griff loves cats!

Re: THE ROAD

[softlyfalling]

Nem.

...there's just some things I have to do because they feel like they're the right thing to do.

And besides, Kohime is well too young for me and needs someone who's dedicated to her, I think.

Did kicking out Griff and everybody else you care about so you can hang out alone with angry ghosts also feel like the "right" thing to do?

[Pauses; takes a breath]

...Look. It ain't really my business who you're doing what with. But...are you seriously happier here than you are back in Tokyo-F?

Re: THE ROAD

[softlyfalling]

I...




...no, but...

...I guess I'm not?

Re: THE ROAD

[unbr8kable]

[Her shoulders loosen a bit, and she nods]

Then...let's get outta here. Okay? Believe it or not, lots of people're gonna miss you if you hide out in here for too long.

Re: THE ROAD

[softlyfalling]

...yeah.

I guess it's time to go, isn't it...

[ she glances back at the cottage, sighs, and—

and then something starts to happen. ]
