[ Voice ]

Mmm. I wonder. Call it conjecture on my part, but what happens to a body when you stab out it's heart?

[ This world... but those are some broad assumptions on his part. About more than one thing. ]

[ Action ]

[ But as for the main part of what Masaomi Kida is doing today, he's hanging out by the fountain, standing on the edge of it with arms wide. Weakness. Weakness is what might destroy them, huh? He wonders if that's individual, or if that's the weakness of a people. He wonders what weakness actually means. Despite this, he's not with Linda for once, and there's a smile on his face. It doesn't meet his eyes, but he's hawking around for anyone in the square, particularly people he knows. And he's holding in his hands two... playing cards?

And when he spies someone, he'll have to bound up to them and ask: ]

Hello! Hello~! Let's play a little game, huuuh?

[ Because he's older now. Because it's the end, and because what else is there left for him to loose. He'll play a game which has him terrified. ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Can that really be called strength? Is what he does for some bigger greater good? Or is it just prettying up the truth?

The right thing... That's definitely what he wants to do, anyway.]

That was at least four questions. [Maybe it's not fair to try and bow out of answering honestly, but if Masaomi wants to keep pressing the issue, he'll get his chance later.]

Wow, savvy?

[ Well then, he waves a hand to motion for him to ask a question. That was all one question, really, because it's specifics on the topic. But he's right, that it could be considered unfair. ]

How are you gonna betray your friends? Is it by leaving, or something else?

[There are plenty of other questions he could ask about what Masaomi told him, but this is the one that bothers him the most.]

Apparently, I leave without telling them why. And...

[ And this is why he's more or less certain of it ]

... And they know that I was a part of the Yellow Scarves. So my past will be coming back in the future, too.

So you aired out your dirty laundry. Are you sure that means you betrayed them?

[It could mean that. Or it could mean that he's off to do some soul searching or end things once and for all or something else that's cool and dramatic. Or maybe he's just going on a quick trip and will be back eventually.]

Doesn't it have to? Because it means, that for whatever stupid reason, I got dragged back into it. Some bastards dragged me back into that darkness, and away from that happy love triangle I was living at Raira.

[ And then he vanished on top of it. ]

You guys are close. A few bad circumstances aren't gonna keep you apart forever, right?

[...] Besides, you get stronger when life throws you curveballs. If that weren't true, we wouldn't be playing this game right now.

[That Masaomi's grown and struggled and still made it through in a place like this makes Silver think he can handle anything. Maybe he's right, maybe he's wrong, but his heart isn't going to change its mind.]

[ ... Man ]

Maybe. That's a future I've never lived, so I guess I'll just have to see. [ But that's n evasive answer, and he knows it. He's deflecting past the question by not committing to it. Stronger? Not going to be apart forever? Close? Mmmmmrrr ]

[That's a better response, at least. Even if he doesn't buy into it, the most Silver can do is give the idea of something better.

Things have a weird way of working themselves out, after all.]

One last question. [And then they're caught up. And this is the most serious question of all...

Okay no it's absolutely not. He pushed Masaomi's buttons, he can cut him a little slack.]

What's your favorite color?

[ Hah ] Isn't it obviously? Yellow! Yellow, yellow, yellow! I've got other preferences, though - I've appreciated blue more over time here, after all.
