[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 makes her cheek lighten up, but past that Hajime just smiles that much more. Yuuki is so cute!!]

Hmm? I don't think so! I know what sting feels like and I didn't feel it at all. I just noticed you were worried, that's it! See? Nothing bad---but even if it did sting me I would want you to keep going. Nothing should keep you from your memories, Yuuki.

[sleepingknight]

But I don't want to sting you. Especially if it's because I'm learning things I shouldn't.

[Although how she's supposed to stop random memories from returning to her, she still hasn't the faintest.]

But... If it's really okay, then... For now, I'll try not to worry about it too much. [Since that, too, could cause stinging.]

[birdstheword]

Yuuki, you should do what you feel is best. You're not alone in this either! I'll always back you up no matter what! Don't let your worries about 'what if' stop you! No one would get anywhere. Just keep going and going and going in circles! I'll let you know if I start to get stung though, okay?

[She stands by that. If they never try, then they'll never know for sure right?]

[Her expression remains uncertain for a moment, but eventually she nods, her body relaxing slightly. Really, she shouldn’t be surprised at this point… She has a tendency to rush into things head first, but Hajime puts even that trait to shame with her go-getter attitude.

It’s an effort, but she summons up a faint, grateful smile.]

…Okay. Thanks, Hajime. I’m gonna keep doing my best!

[There’s a little less oomph to her voice, but it’s sincere nevertheless.]
