[ It had been a complete accident.

The fact that she was now at his bedside just waiting for him to wake up after getting hit hard in the head was definitely not a part of today's plans for her, but he seemed to be relatively fine otherwise.

So now all she could do, really, was wait. ]

I am not surprised to hear that he has such an objective. [Since this person talking does have all of Yuuto’s memories.] But it may not be in your best interest..?

After all… To become the only Spacetime kami would mean to become what I am. ‘Your’ Yuuto would change.

[dereban]

I know.

[ Her heart crackles at the thought. ]

And honestly, it scares me. [...] If he did that, he might go back to being a lonely existence, and I... don't want that for him.

I'll eventually either go back to being with others or to a state of nonexistence eventually, but Yuuto...

[spacialeyes]

… Your concern is not unfounded. He will either become an eternally lonely existence or cease to exist. A normal life is not possible for “Yumeno Yuuto.”

[dereban]

I don't want that.

[spacialeyes]

It is an unfortunate fact. Without this power- this soul,- Kuroneko Satou and Yumeno Shugo’s child is not… “born.”

But this power is also not compatible with a regular human body.

[dereban]

[ ... ]

And changing the fundamentals of that wouldn't be easy. It could hurt them even more.

But still. I... don't want to leave him alone.

[spacialeyes]

You cannot stop him from being lonely forever, Himeko. That’s not a bad thing.

[dereban]

I can at least stop him from feeling sad.

[spacialeyes]

And how will you solve that?

[dereban]

You'll just have to find out.

[spacialeyes]

Being sad is part of being human, you know.

[dereban]

But not for eternity.

[spacialeyes]

Perhaps… What would your ideal be, then? If you. If you have any future.

[dereban]

Why do you want to know?

[spacialeyes]

He’s me, so of course I’m curious.

[dereban]

Curiosity killed the cat.

[spacialeyes]

Immortal being.

[dereban]

What do I get out of telling you?

[spacialeyes]

I can tell you if it is impossible?

[dereban]

Then you hear nothing from me.

[spacialeyes]

[He laughs.] I thought as much. You aren’t really one for impossibilities.

[dereban]

Is it really that funny...?

[spacialeyes]

You’re just as I remember… It feels strange. I’ve never had someone to remember before.

[dereban]

It feels like I'm being bullied now...

[spacialeyes]

I’ve never gotten to bully anyone before either!
