Writing so that people can see it is strange...isn't this sort of thing meant to be private? I'd rather speak to you all.

[In bigger handwriting:]

KEEP THIS PART PRIVATE!

[Back to her regular writing!]

Did you know? The stars are stairs.
I climbed a hundred stars
Just to wish you goodbye

[Paaaause, then:]

What do you mean I can't keep it

It's a beautiful song, Goodbye.

-ZERO

[ofsong]

Only once I sing it.

[armedsalvation]

Are you going to write the music too?

[ofsong]

I might need a little help.

[armedsalvation]

[Several minutes before he writes again. Slowly.]

I don't remember music, but it feels familiar when you and Aimo talk about it. Like I've forgotten else that's important to me. I've forgotten everything important. [Blacked out.] I'd like to help.

[ofsong]

We'll remember what's important to us. This Sphere can't take it away forever.

[a pause]

Thank you, Zero.

[armedsalvation]

Everything is here in my mind. It's just blocked.

You're welcome.

[ofsong]

Then there's no doubt those blocks will come down!

[armedsalvation]

Yours and Aimo's too.

[ofsong]

Naturally.
