♫~76th Melody--[Audio]

[a long pause]

Yoru left the City. He left me behind...

[another pause]

Does it even matter anymore? After all this time, after everyone I've seen leave without knowing if they'll come back... Even--

[A sigh, and then more silence.]

I give up. You win, City.

Yoru left, that's--

[Voice]

[guardianjoker]

Alright, I'm going to come over-- so just stay there.

[Voice]

[cat_on_strings]

...

If you want to.

I wouldn't have said it, if I didn't.

[She really was worried about him...]

[Action]

[guardianjoker]

[And a few minutes later, she heads to the Xanadu and soon after she sees him up ahead]

[Ikuto was sitting under a tree, Network device in hand. He probably could have climbed the tree if he wanted, but with Yoru gone plus the curse, he didn't care anymore. Instead, he stared out into space, not even noticing when Amu approached.]

[Action]

[guardianjoker]

Hey.

[She greeted him, just sitting down beside him. It was so weird to see him like this, that it was no wonder she was worried. She just hoped something she'd say would get through to him]

[Action]

[cat_on_strings]

Yo.

[He didn't say anything more than that. He didn't want to talk any more about this subject, but Amu being there was at least one constant he could rely on.]

[Action]

[guardianjoker]

Everything...it'll be okay, you know.

[Amu just subconsciously reached out to hold his hand then as she said that]

[Action]

[cat_on_strings]

[He still doesn't say anything, but holds onto her hand. Right now, he didn't believe that 'everything will be okay,' but... at least she was still here.]
