[there's a certain somberness to chie's tone when she speaks - a quietness she's not usually known for:]

I never noticed it before - ha, well, I guess I haven't really been out here a whole lot - but there's a headstone with Adachi's name on it.

[chie takes a long breath and quietly sighs.]

I wonder if that means he's really not coming back?

If he's returned to his world, couldn't he just be brought back here like before?

[heavyheels]

[oh boy, what an unnerving thought.]

Oh, sheesh - I hadn't thought about that, Aigis-san. I guess maybe there's no such thing as gone for good, huh?

[protectsfools]

I still would rather not have to see him again.

[heavyheels]

Sheesh, no kidding. You and me both!

[protectsfools]

I don't know him very well, but... Has he always been like that?

[heavyheels]

We didn't know him for very long ... I think he moved to Inaba about a year ago? But he managed to fool everyone for most of that time. I guess it was just a couple months before I got here that we found out who he really was.

[protectsfools]

He won't be able to hide who he really is anymore, not here.

[heavyheels]

No. [she sighs.] I'm just worried he'll come back and hide the fact that he's here until it's too late.

[protectsfools]

I won't let him catch us off guard, not again.

[heavyheels]

Good. I'm glad we can count on you, Aigis-san. And I'll do my best, too!
