aww, so cute, Ryoji

[sadistsword]

You were? I'm not sure if it's worrisome or if I should be happy about that. [Though he's happy, really.]

An expression for still living happily when you think of your crush.

>w<

[the13tharcana]

Well, it's been a while since you came to visit me like this... so I found myself wondering if you've forgotten about me or not.

[Have a little wink there, Okita.]

Is that how it's called? Then yes, I'm still on cloud nine. I would even go as far and say that things have gotten a lot better since the last time we've talked.

[And by 'better,' he really means 'better.']

...Although something else has happened, too.

[sadistsword]

Don't worry, I wouldn't be able to forget you too easily even if I wanted to. [Which he didn't want to, really.]

Better, huh? That's good to hear.

[The news on this site hadn't been as good.]

What has happened?

[the13tharcana]

Is that so? [He smiles.] I'm happy to hear that. It works both ways, of course.

And yes... you know, once Joshua got used to all of this a little more, he even started to surprise me sometimes.

[Interpret that however you like, Okita.]

... We've talked about this last time, actually. Apparently Lady Luck decided to make Minako-chan appear in the city, just like I feared it might happen someday.

[sadistsword]

So that means I'm stuck in your mind forever?

Surprise you sometimes? Are those good or bad surprises?

[Because he's not entirely sure here. After all, he had been always a bit suspicious of Joshua.

Also oh.]

And now? What are you going to do?

[the13tharcana]

I'm afraid so.

And those are definitely good kind of surprises! ... Let's just say that the saying 'still waters run deep' is accurate here.

[Have another wink to that, Okita.]

... I'm not sure yet, to be honest.

[sadistsword]

What a ghost to live with, huh?

Good ones, huh? I guess your stubbornness concerning your relationship is really paying off.

[Which sounded good, Ryoji deserved it.]

Are you letting her live with you?

[the13tharcana]

Even if I could, I wouldn't exchange it for any other, you know.

[And he means it.]

I suppose it does... though sometimes it's still so hard for me to believe it's gotten me anywhere at all.

... I figured it would be for the best. It's not like I can just leave her alone.

[sadistsword]

Is that so?

[Souji might be slightly touched here. It's a weird thing to sa to him.]

It seems to have been a good pay-off here.

Well, technically you could. You just chose not to.

[Ryoji, you are really developing morality here.]
