[ch. 7] post-investigation, w/ souji

[asswipe]

[HEY, WHEEZY YEET.

Don't mind Veronica as she pulls him into a hug for like 0.5 seconds and then lets go, immediately taking a step back like nothing happened.]

I'm so happy you're still alive.

[Emphasis on "still" because, uh. Well. They have two leftover heroes.]

You will. You already do. I promise.

[... On the bright side, he didn't stay dead for long! On the downside, this conversation is still painful in retrospect because 1) they're all leaving, and 2) Souji better use that ink to heal himself or Veronica will murder him herself.]

I'm glad I was able to meet you, too. Please... Take care of yourself if you can, okay? Everyone else can hold on a little longer.

[HIS TWO SECONDS OF DEATH!! But yeah life is still hard when you and your new super close friends who've been through two months of Hell have to suddenly separate and scatter all over time and space. Hm.

For now though, he's just focusing on making it through tomorrow.]

Thank you. [It means a lot to hear that, spoken so earnestly. As for taking care of himself... Well.]

...Mm, I'll do my best. [That much he can try to do, too. Try being key, but try is better than nothing.] As long as everyone else is fine, too. As fine as can be.
