[kaihentai]

[All that can be heard is the sound of a man spilling his guts- Literally. He's losing his lunch over and over again. After an dismaying array of wretching noises, a voice finally echoes throughout.]

Is this thing on?

[BEEEEEEP.]

[kaihentai]

As for my set of wings, I had to buy 'em! But yeah. Hell yeah, I did!

[He seems oddly proud of that.]

That really taught me somethin'! Never listen to the people who tell you that you can't do shit. They don't know what they're talkin' about.

[Sakamoto chuckles.]

If things don't work out, maybe something better will come your way. The first gig I got when I left home wasn't one that made me happy, but I learned a lot. I think it made be a better guy? Ahhhh, it might've made me worse too.

Even so, I found what I was lookin' for eventually. Or maybe...

[There's a hint of a wry smile.]

They found me.

[helmets]

[ she likes hearing him talk about his world, likes seeing the way his face and voice light up brighter than the sun. ]

I'm glad they found you.

[ she's glad he found her too. ]

When we find our way back, I hope you'll continue to accomplish everything you dreamed of.

[kaihentai]

I wish the same to you. What was it you said you were? A travel guide, right?

[It's easy to ignore the cold when he speaks to her. Hopefully, she can tune out the odd sounds.]

[helmets]

Of sorts. I managed a delivery service.

[ it's been a while since she was a guide. she'd almost forgotten what it was like, but there's a part of her buried deep that still yearns for the call. ]

[kaihentai]

Ah, so you're a smart businesswoman too? I knew there was a reason I liked you.

[Teasing.]

I hope that when you get back, you'll be welcomed home by all the important people in your life.

[helmets]

I wouldn't say I'm very good at it, but thank you.

[ stahp. ]

Likewise, I hope you will be welcomed home as well.

We may not be able to remember each other when we return home, but I'm grateful to have met you.

[kaihentai]

["We may not be able to remember each other when we return home."

She's right, isn't she.

She's right and there's a good chance he won't remember her, that when they part ways it will be like they have never even met. He feels spiteful all of a sudden, like he should be more bold, more daring, make more saucy memories when they're together because who knows what will happen when they are apart. Sternly:]

Don't say things like that. I travel to many places! So~! Who knows?

[Fondly, and spoken like a true optimist:]

Maybe I'll see you again.

[helmets]

I look forward to that day.

[ she has lived a long, long time. and she still has a long, long time to live. she can wait. ]

[kaihentai]

I look forward to tomorrow.

[He smiles again, for the umpteenth time. What else can he do around her?]

Because I have a feeling I'll be seein' you.
