[ kyouka & jae-ha, monday ]

[alttitude]

[Presumably after lunch is when he catches her. Jae-ha will catch Kyouka's gaze and give her a friendly little wave.]

Hello again, little miss.

Can I borrow you for a second?

[ She shakes her head. Crying has never brought them back. Crying has never stopped any other atrocities from happening. Crying has never stopped the orders coming from her phone. ]

I'll miss them for as long as I live.

[ She'll miss what she had, the time when she was happy and knew she belonged. ]

[alttitude]

[ . . . Jae-ha just sighs, softly, and like he wishes that he could stop anything bad from ever happening to her.]

... ah.

It means that their memory will get to live on in you. So make sure you have a very long, long life so you can tell their stories to everyone.

[ ...

Her prolonged silence is telling. She hasn't thought about living a long, long life in a long, long time.

But she doesn't want her parents to be forgotten. ]

... I'll try.

[ That's the best she can do without blatantly lying. ]

[alttitude]

[For Jae-ha, that can stand to be enough.

He hugs her close and makes a soft, affirmative noise.]

I'm sure that choice would make them happy.
