15th Henshin

[singularpoint]

[recorded for a moment as someone wakes up no longer an eleven year old!] ... Is it over? That.. lasted longer than I'd heard about. Mm... Ryuutaros, are you still here?

[pause; he remembers something he learned when he was a kid, and finds the journal to take care of it now, instead of putting it off]If anyone knew them, Sakurai Yuuto and Deneb

Your friends?

I'm sorry.

[singularpoint]

[pause; this writing is kind of familiar for some reason...] Yeah. My friends.

It's alright, though. They're not trapped here anymore.

[seekingheroes]

Hm, maybe you're right, but still..

It's a bit lonely, isn't it? [ pauses ] My name's Cho, it's nice to meet you.. ?

[singularpoint]

It is. But I'm not the only one from home here, so it's not so bad, in the meantime.

[... Oooh.] Cho-san? ["Um..."] I'm Ryotarou. It's nice to meet you.

[eatinurdudez]

Some fucks went home? Shit, sucks to be them.

You know they're probably dead now, right?

[singularpoint]

[... silence for a.. good long while]

They're not dead.

[eatinurdudez]

[Gotta love em silences]

How ya know?

[singularpoint]

They wouldn't die that easily.

[gunnerkid]

I'm still here!

... And I'm glad they're gone.

[singularpoint]

I'm glad.

... Ryuutaros...

[gunnerkid]

... What?

[singularpoint]

You shouldn't be like that. You like Deneb at least, don't you?

[kawaiiyoshino]

Real strength is not just a condition of one's muscle, but a tenderness in one's spirit.

[singularpoint]

[Amused at the random comment!] If a friend of mine were here, I doubt that he would agree with that.

[kawaiiyoshino]

[ reads her own comment and thinks about it ]

I suspect there are many who would. I am not certain if the quote in and of itself allows for the various ways in which a person can be strong, outside of the most obvious physical strength. Tenderness is not always a strength, but should not be dismissed as a weakness.

[singularpoint]

[Quiet "Mm."] That's true, as well. That was a quote? What was it from?
