[ 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. ]

[dereban]

Mmm... let's just say that I pick up on things rather quickly. Also that wasn't an insult.

[spacialeyes]

Whatever I may be... When Yuuto wakes up, 'this' person will cease to exist.

[It's only as he says it aloud that he realizes how horrifying that is.]

... At least the food has been good.

[dereban]

... I won't forget you. As long as I remember you, your existence will still be with me.

[spacialeyes]

[He laughs quietly,] You'd be the only one who could remember me... In that way, I'm only yours, huh? Maybe that isn't too bad.

[dereban]

I can tell other people, though--

[dereban]

--wait a second, you...!

[spacialeyes]

Ah. So it's a bad thing after all? You seem upset.

[dereban]

I'm not upset!

[spacialeyes]

So it’s alright to be only yours?

[dereban]

It's... are you okay with that?

[spacialeyes]

Do I give an easy answer or an honest one?

[dereban]

Give the honest one.

[spacialeyes]

It feels unfair to be remembered by anyone. This existence is only a fragment of a whole, as you had said… But it won’t be repeated in this way ever again.

Still- I think that I would feel safe in your memory. Is that strange?

[dereban]

I don't think it is. So, whatever you want to do after this... let's make the most out of it.

[spacialeyes]

I am not sure what humans do for joy. Yuuto’s thoughts often cycle back to how much he loves you, no matter what he’s doing. I imagine that to mean you’re the most interesting thing here?

So anything we can do together, I suppose.

[dereban]

I'm not really that interesting, you know.

Besides, when I'm with Yuuto, I...

[...]

I'll figure something out.

[spacialeyes]

“You..?” [He prompts her curiously, but is ultimately willing to drop it.] It would make me happy just to be together for a while, yes. To me, you’re more than interesting.

[dereban]

Huh...? I-In what way am I "more than interesting"?

[spacialeyes]

I believe the experience we are sharing could be described as... "Fun?"

[dereban]

...Oh.

[ She lets out a breath she didn't think she was holding. ]

Well, that's good. Anyway, when you're done, I'll wash the dishes.

[spacialeyes]

Did you want for me to say something else?

[dereban]

No. Unless you want to help me clean.

[spacialeyes]

I would love to help, yes! It doesn't sound too difficult. Why don't you rest while I handle the cleaning?

[dereban]

Alright-- ah, you know where everything is...?

[spacialeyes]

Yes, I have Yuuto’s memories. So you get some rest… and maybe think of what we should do together. After all, these memories will live longer with you than me. I want them to be worth remembering.
