[spiritoso]

Exactly! I'll be here to remind you of that too,
just in case it does happen.

You're not shoving your anxieties onto me. I'm happy you're telling me about these things. I think if we share our worries with one another, it'll be a lot easier. It's too much if we just keep our worries to ourselves.

[steadycourse]

I'll be here for you too!

Thank you, Kaede. Seeing you say all this truly means a lot, because you're my friend! I'm glad that I'm not bothering you with all this.

You promise that you'll tell me your worries if you have them?

[spiritoso]

I'm glad! It's always nice to have friends in times like these.

I will! I'll tell you if I get any memories about any killing games too. It'll be less scary if we can talk to each other about it. At least, that's what I think.

[steadycourse]

You're absolutely right. Not to mention, we don't have to worry about betrayal or the killing game here.

[He looks at his phone for a moment again, before sending the next message.]

I never thought about this before, but my past self was probably terrified every day. Who wouldn't be? I've truly been callous to not care about that and only worry about how it might affect me.

[spiritoso]

I never thought about that either actually. The pain everyone's past selves went through when they lost their friends... I wonder what my past self felt too, if she went through all of that.

I don't think it's callous not to realize it. It's like we're living through the memories ourselves, right? It's easy to forget that we're not that person.

[steadycourse]

If she did and if she's anything like you... I know that she would be deeply upset! Because you're that sort of person!

It does feel that way. But strangely enough, I don't find myself mixing him with who I am now. Maybe it's because I'm so different from him. At least, from what I remember.

[spiritoso]

I hope so. I really hope she was that kind of person. She seems to be similar to me, at least in the memories I've had.

What ways are you different from him? Other than that one memory you have...

[steadycourse]

Well, to be honest, it's just that one memory I have...

But I think that combined with the pyrotechnology in my eyes says enough. I'd never do either thing!

[spiritoso]

That's true. Both are pretty out there for you.

Maybe you'll find out you have more in common with him later on? But I don't know. It's possible I could find out things that make me feel like I'm completely different from my past self too.
