You find yourself in a room like this.



It's a simple theater room with a giant colorful couch for everyone to sit or lie on if they so choose, and on the screen, you'll find a screen with twenty clones of a single, sexy assistant holding boxes, each box being labelled 01-20.

Also by sexy, I mean she's wearing stained sweatpants, crocs that are like 10 years old, and then this shirt. She looks grumpy and put-out, almost like she doesn't wanna be here.

There's also a remote that has the numbers 01-20 for you to press, and also buttons "DEAL" and "NO DEAL".

Oh yeah, and popcorn and soda!

If they did...then maybe I wouldn't feel like it was so final...

I don't know, Cobalt-san. It all feels so wrong. And - and even if I go after them, I'll just be in the way again, and - I don't know. Maybe all there is for me is here.

"In the way again"? Do you feel like you're in the way now?

I always got the impression they were both head over heels for you.

Re: Discussion

[wonderlandgirl]

But they're - they belong together, don't they? I'm just... intruding.

Re: Discussion

[we_meet_again]

Is that how they feel about it? I feel like they would have said or done something about it, if that were the case.

And if they don't feel like you're intruding, then it's fine, right?

Re: Discussion

[wonderlandgirl]

I don't know.

I've always been too scared to ask. It's stupid, isn't it?

No... But if you trust them, I hope you can also trust that they're in a relationship with you because they want to be. I really can't see either of them doing otherwise.

—For one thing, Hiryuu has a strong sense of principles.

And can you imagine Leviathan trying to pretend to do anything? He couldn't deceive his way out of a paper bag. If he were being dishonest, you'd know it from three miles away.

[It tails off into a fit of coughing. When she looks up again, there are petals crushed between her palms.]

It's - so easy, when we're together.

But... we can't always be. And, and then this happens, and they're going to be leaving together, and - I've just got to... to wait, I suppose... and see what happens to me, now they're gone...

And - it's like it knows that. This place. It knows.

Re: Discussion

[we_meet_again]

Yeah. This place is awful like that.

But this won't be the last time you see them. They'll visit you here, and they'll keep visiting you once you go home, if that's what you choose to do.

You can also talk to them any time you want at the visitor's center, and send them letters. And I'm sure they'll come back for parties and stuff, too.

This is not a final goodbye. Just goodbye for now.
