I'm glad. You should have a good life.

[unknownrival]

So should you.

[aquaticrush]

I think I'm doing okay. Yes. I think so.

[unknownrival]

I'm glad to hear that.

[aquaticrush]

Um... could I ask you something? Are you happy?

[unknownrival]

Very happy, thank you.

[aquaticrush]

That's good. Ah, I know it's probably silly of me to bother you when it's my birthday, not yours. I just... I think I wanted to make sure I was doing the right thing, that's all. Thank you.

[unknownrival]

It's your birthday, so you should be able to call anyone you want.

[aquaticrush]

If you were busy, I'd have to apologize.

[unknownrival]

That doesn't mean you shouldn't try to call.

[aquaticrush]

...Issei?

[unknownrival]

Yes?

[aquaticrush]

I might always have regrets, but I think I'm happy now, too. So thank you. For everything.

*It wasn't what she'd wanted to wait for today to say, years ago. But it couldn't be. And maybe this was okay, too.*

[unknownrival]

You're welcome. Thank you, too - I wouldn't be who I am had I never met you.

[aquaticrush]

What? Really?

[unknownrival]

Really, I swear it's the truth.

[aquaticrush]

You had more of an effect on me, I think. I can think back to a lot of people who were more important to who you are.

[unknownrival]

Well, who do you think?

[aquaticrush]

It was Karen-san and the other Shirogane-san who helped you be more comfortable around girls, not me. I just sat there. And, ah, it was everyone else who defended you when you got in that fight, not me.

[unknownrival]

You did help with making me more friendly to girls.

[aquaticrush]

Like when Greed-san tried to make you ask a girl to put suntan lotion on you and you negotiated so it was me instead of, um, I think it might have been Takami-san?

[It was definitely someone scary, anyway.]

[unknownrival]

Takami is frightening.

[Don't remind him, seriously.]

[aquaticrush]

I hope I'm less so.

[unknownrival]

By far.

[aquaticrush]

Thank you for being so kind to me. I called you -- it was a bad idea, but I think the thing is that I called you to convince myself that life had gone the best way for both of us. Do you think it's been good for you?
