WEEK 6

[divus]

[Sincerity meets Takaomi at the train station. Except... hm. The mask is off. With a grin, he lifts up the souvenir in one hand and waves at him with the other.]

Takaomi-kun! This is so cute!

[bakaomi]

[ oh

he blink in surprise ]

... I thought it might be something you'd like.

[ with the jellyfish trend that's going on here ]

[divus]

Well, you're not wrong. I've got a friend who'd go totally nuts over it for other reasons, but it's pretty cute on its own.

[Also it reminds him of her, so.]

[bakaomi]

From back home, you mean?

[ it'll explain things. ]

[divus]

Yeah, that's right.

[bakaomi]

Must be a friend that left an impression then.

[divus]

Definitely.

[His expression is more than a little fond.]

Don't get me wrong, she had her moments that made me want to tear my own hair out - but she was definitely unique, in a good way.

[bakaomi]

[ hm... ]

Miss her?

[divus]

I think we all miss the people we've left behind.

[bakaomi]

[ this is the face of someone who is trying to figure out if he'd miss people ]

[divus]

[that's okay, he'll wait for you to figure it out]

[bakaomi]

The whole concept of ascension seems hard to think about.

[ this is easier than admitting he reached a conclusion. ]

[divus]

You know, I'm not sure any of us actually understand it.

[he can admit that]

[bakaomi]

Did all of you say yes and then were just thrown together with the expectation to figure it out?

[divus]

Kind of. I think some of us had more of an idea what we were getting into than others.

[bakaomi]

I've noticed.

[ he doesn't sound that judgmental though. ]

[divus]

That obvious, huh?

[bakaomi]

Mm.

I'm not sure if this whole mess is really helping some of you.

[divus]

You can say that again.

[bakaomi]

[ taka accidentally made tamaki's depression worse and he may feel bad at it. terrible. ]

... are you still okay with your decision to become a god?

[divus]

There's no take-backs with this kind of thing. I might have regrets, but... I can't change the decision I made. So if I'm gonna be a god, I'm gonna be the best god I can be.

[bakaomi]

Huh.

[ he was not expecting something so positive ]

[divus]

There's no point in living life with regrets, you know? You have to move past 'em. Live in the moment, and for the future!

[bakaomi]

[ he looks

a little exasperated at that ]

[divus]

Whaaaaat. What's with that look!
