Why is everything cursed...

[ this afterlife sucks! ]

Whatever. At least we have time to think of something - we just have to make sure we don't forget.

[rewriter]

I know, right?

[stop being cursed! they're already dead!]

... But, actually, there's one that I could share with you right now. Do you want to exchange secrets, Kazuki?

[teenrebellion]

[ he blinks in surprise, but nods. ]

Okay, sure. I... might need a minute to think of something, but I'll try. And I won't share yours with anyone, either.

[rewriter]

That's okay. It doesn't have to be anything major.

But, hmm... Well... Do you remember last week, when you asked me if I was gonna answer Netzach's question?

[teenrebellion]

Ah. Yeah, I remember. You're sure you don't mind telling me?

[rewriter]

I don't mind. The truth is, I never shared my answer because I just couldn't come up with one.

Don't get me wrong, I want to live! But... ahaha, I really, really don't want to go home.

[teenrebellion]

Ah... Sorry, I... didn't know.

...Is it that bad, where you're from? [ following up quickly with, ] You don't have to go into detail if you don't want to, I just. Want to try and understand.

[rewriter]

[... she smiles, just a little.]

You don't have to apologize. It's just what it is.

I was in a pretty bad situation, and then it got even worse the last thing I remember... Long story short, even if I went back, there's nowhere for me to go. So I'd just rather not.

[teenrebellion]

If it's like that, then I can't blame you for not wanting to go back.

I'm guessing that you already talked to the reapers about that, haven't you? If we're all from such different places, why couldn't you just... go somewhere else?

[rewriter]

Mhmm, I talked to Ruby about it. But in the end, she didn't really tell me if that was possible or not... I think she told Shu she would look into it when we first met the reapers, though.

[teenrebellion]

[ the least surprising answer ever... kazuki sighs. ]

It's not a no, though. There might still be a chance.

Do you have an idea of where you would go, if you do get to choose? Or are you still thinking about that, too?

[rewriter]

Hmm... I guess I'm still thinking about it. But a normal world where nothing too exciting happens sounds nice.

[teenrebellion]

I'd say you could try mine, but Adonis has kind of ruined "normal" for us. It was fine until earlier this year, though.

I hope you find a good place, Monika.
