[ what awaits them could never be a satisfying answer. there's no promise that they can escape from it. despite the admittance to looking forward to the future, to enjoying making good memories, to be able to make more connections... it'll hurt them when they go back. but they can't say that. it'll make things worse. they can only say they wish they could do more and leave it at that.

and yet another thing starts up as they almost ask him to elaborate on what he means. and as it happens, they are reminded how it's always complicated seeing someone else's memories.

with others, it's been... more of an insight. of what they're going through, of their life before, of the struggles and burden they've been carrying on them. but with Jonas, with Alex, they always feel so incredibly... helpless. it should be fine. after all, Alex has assured them personally that she has fixed it. that everyone is okay.

so why do these memories continue to fill them with dread? with a pain they are unsure how to deal with. and it's probably because in turn they've come to care so much over them that there's a chilling fear for when they'll lose them. they can't do anything to fix something that's already happened. and... maybe, they feel the same way regarding Setsu's memories. they hold onto his hand a bit firmer as the memory plays, their other hand coming to brace their own head a little.

it's a bit dizzying. but they look up at him, searching, and they want to ask-- yet they look uncertain, as if questioning they're even allowed to but ]


..Where did you go? [ at the end there it was all red, a mention of his mother, then a flicker of.. scenes, happening too fast for them to get a good look at. and then it was just.. darkness. ]
