[Yuuki had been doing so well.

When she wakes up on the morning of the thirteenth, there's something different. Hajime will feel it as a sense of confusion and unease, though it has yet to progress to outright stinging. It's... strange. She remembers lush greens and a blue sky that seems to stretch forever, circling around a giant tree from which the world itself seems to spring. She remembers laughter, turning to the culprit and laughing herself in sheer bliss as she takes in the world. Between the six of them, they practically have a rainbow of wings... Siune, Jun, Tecchi, Talken, Nori. She knows their names, their races, the fact that they were her comrades. But...

That's it. Just a brief glimpse into what must have been her past. A beautiful world full of friendly faces that she can't quite reach out to grasp... One that she shouldn't.

And yet...]

Shinki definitely never ever remember things... Right?

[There's no easy way to put it. But she has to know--

Is it... Really okay for her to be regaining her memories...?]

It was a good memory!!

But I'm not sure if shinki are supposed to remember things because Yukine said that it could be bad

[darkduelist]

[Hm...]

Did he say why?

In any case, Yuuki, you didn't do anything wrong.

[sleepingknight]

Just that he was warned against it

I'm going to talk to Hajime

I want to remember more things but if it's bad and contagious I don't want other shinki to get hurt

[That's... really the worst part about it all, really. She's happy for the memory, but she's not sure if she should be.

But as for that last bit...]

Thanks Yuto

[darkduelist]

I see.

Worrying about it won't help, though. And I still believe that remembering isn't a bad thing, because if it were, wouldn't that mean that we don't have the right to know who we were in the past? And that just sounds so unfair.

Anyway, yes. Talk to Hajime now. And don't forget that I'm always here if you'd like someone else to talk to. I promise I won't get hurt because of that.

[sleepingknight]

[So, as promised, she talks with Hajime. And, well... Given it's Hajime, it goes pretty well. It just takes her a bit to get back to his message to reply:]

We talked about it

She was really excited

[What a shocker.]

[darkduelist]

[And he's not surprised at all.]

So everything went well, huh? I told you that you are worrying too much.

[sleepingknight]

It's hard not to!!

We aren't supposed to remember things so I thought I might have done something wrong...

I wish we knew what was going on!!!

[darkduelist]

Does that mean you regret remembering?

[And then there's another message:]

Or maybe I shouldn't have asked that question. In any case, don't worry so much about it, okay? I'm still more than sure that you haven't done anything wrong.

But I also wish we knew what was happening.

[sleepingknight]

[Asking the tough questions. She takes some time to reply to the others before she rounds back to his, spotting his second message once she does.]

I don’t regret it.

But I wish I knew what caused it and why and I wish we knew for sure it’s nothing bad

You’re right though I’ll try not to worry

You just try to be careful too

[Keyword here, of course, is “try.”]

[darkduelist]

Worrying won't solve anything. But I'll be careful.

If anything else happens make sure to let me know, alright?

[sleepingknight]

Of course!

Thanks Yuto
