[Poor Ritsu. He's already having enough trouble with this whole mess without having some one whispering in his ear and butterflies in front of him.

He's in a corner, curled up, hands over his head.]

Leave me alone... leave me alone...

[crushbutterfly]

Do you want to be happy?

[25tontrap]

Go away... please go away...

[crushbutterfly]

You can make it go away, your confusion.

[25tontrap]

B-but... [looks up, reaching a shaking hand towards one of the butterflies]

[crushbutterfly]

Wouldn't it be so nice to be confident? To know?

[25tontrap]

To know what?! What is there to know?! There's just walls and tests and screaming--!

[crushbutterfly]

[gestures to a different butterfly]

Do you want to not be frightened then? That's the one.

cRuSH iT.

[25tontrap]

I-I don't--...

[starts to reach for it]

YOUR ICON

[crushbutterfly]

[watches, smiling. do it, you poor soul... it's the right choice]

I CAN HAS BUTTERFLIES

[25tontrap]

[but what if its not the right choice? You're a voice in his ear... why should he listen to you?]

[crushbutterfly]

[it's just getting rid of your fear. how could that be the wrong choice?

[25tontrap]

[That phrase 'too good to be true' is ringing in his head, but... he really doesn't want to be afraid anymore. What if his family needs him?

He might just be inching closer to that butterfly]

[crushbutterfly]

She's waiting, you know. Your sister.

[25tontrap]

Sister... I have a sister... I--...

[sits up straight suddenly, hand just that much closer to the butterfly.]

Miko-nee!

[crushbutterfly]

She's here. She's waiting. She's scared.
