[Arcueid had gone over to but the newlyweds, but had found an unexpected surprise when she had gone to their house. Instead of that idiot Shiki and his cute new little wife...she found only drones. She had known Shiki had been here for a rather long time, and she was happy to see that he had gone back home, but...he'd left

... Is something wrong?

[Remember this girl? It's the villain that you faced off with from a while ago. And she certainly recognizes this girl to be that half-dressed heroine from a while back. Seeing her this glum seems almost surreal.

It's like looking into a window of a hero's personal life. Even they must feel depression every now and then.]

[makemebreakfast]

No, it's nothing anyone else needs to worry about.

[Her gaze doesn't leave those glasses in her hand as she speaks in a flat tone. It seems she's not going to be very forthcoming.]

[birthclod]

True. Even so, talking about it helps.

[Even still, Clod climbs up on the bench and sits next to Arcueid. She looks at the pair of glasses that Arc is holding. Hm, those don't belong to her.]

... Ah. Somebody "passed on".

[makemebreakfast]

Who cares? It's my problem.

[Seems short responses are all Arcueid is in the mood for at the moment.]

[birthclod]

[Yet the little girl will persevere.]

Mm. But you're my one-time rival. That's enough to make me care.

... Loss is tough to deal with. But you'll see him or her again. Someday.

[makemebreakfast]

Someday.

I wonder if I'll be stuck here as long as he was.

[birthclod]

But you'll meet him regardless.

... Would you like to hear a story?

[Not that Arc has a choice.]

[makemebreakfast]

Sure, I guess.

[birthclod]

Once upon a time, there were two sisters. The older sister always got into trouble while the younger sister had to clean up after her. But they loved each other. Because they were sisters

[makemebreakfast]

All of that is stupid and pointless.

[Though Aruceid has a younger sister herself...one she's going to have to kill someday...or rather, one she's supposed to kill. The story hits a little close to home...and she's a little pissed off by it.]

[birthclod]

Is it?

What I'm trying to say is that you still have a place to go to after this town is no more. You still have someone waiting for you.

There are some who don't have any of that. After this world, there is nothing but non-existence to them.

[makemebreakfast]

So, you can die.

Big deal. Sometimes dying and moving on is better. You don't have to spend eternity chasing after someone you probably can never really kill.

Be happy you can achieve a final rest.

[birthclod]

... Do you really mean that?

Don't you have someone worth living for? I assume that person is why you're here right now.

[makemebreakfast]

It doesn't matter.

I shouldn't have gotten attached like I did. I shouldn't have fell in love.

I should just go back to sleep.

[birthclod]

Everybody has the right to be happy. Happiness is a fleeting emotion. But it can always be reclaimed. What will you do when that man returns? He very well may return. People have ways of returning to Mayfield.

The two of you can meet again. So, please. Phantasmoon.

Don't curse your happiness.

[makemebreakfast]

I'm not supposed to have that.

I wasn't supposed to feel anything.

Just kill and sleep. That's it. I don't curse it, I just realize it is not necessary.
