week 0, monday

[preowned]

[ soon after the new locations are open, tsuru will immediately go to explore them. he ends in the water area? because it seems like it would be funny oocly

anyway where's lili ]

[coastal]

[there's the sound of a yelp inside the sand castle

there's lili]

[preowned]

[ ah

he is going to wander over there ]

Hello there!

[coastal]

Hell-oh?!

[it's slippery by the tide pools

where lili is exploring deeper and deeper into the sand castle without actually stopping even though she's nearly fallen 7 times]

[preowned]

... did you just slip?

[ he's going in properly now, glancing around as he goes ]

[coastal]

[she pauses]

No.

[yes]

[preowned]

There's no shame in falling!

[ it's said cheerfully ]

week 6, uhhh post-task, time is fake.

[coastal]

[once they return the bird to wherever it's supposed to be returned to, and they're in an area without anyone else - ]

... Does he know?

What you did?

[preowned]

He does not.

[ kara's reaction when tsuru died probably would have been even more extreme than it already was if he knew, honestly. ]

[coastal]

... and you're not going to tell him.

[admittedly after seeing kara fucking sulk in a volcano after she died, she can imagine why the news would probably be pretty bad but]

Why?

[she wants to hear it from him]

[preowned]

It would have hurt him more than helped. It's been nice, watching his progress...

[ seeing kara interact with others and open up bit by bit to people other than the dategumi. ]

All he would do is blame himself.

[coastal]

[it's not like lili doesn't understand - it'd be a very distracting thing to think about how you might be the cause of a friend's demise and then they lose their life right in front of your eyes. if it had been her and yona... would she have been able to pull herself out of such a deep depression?]

... but that means that you had to hold onto the knowledge all by yourself.

[preowned]

I've been managing.

[ ... ]

I'm not sure how that situation will play out, because I was brought here right after that happened. They may have to break me, or they might figure something else out... either way, I'm grateful for the extra time I got to have.

week 6, friday

[coastal]

[when lili gets handed two notes, they're folded up and look so terribly familiar to her.

she seems to fuss for a moment, warring with what she wants to do with them, before going to find tsurumaru and handing them to him]

Tsurumaru - does one of these mention a girl named Yona?

[preowned]

[ can lili not read ]

Hm? It does, yes.

[coastal]

And does the other one look like Ookurikara's handwriting?

[the modly answer is yes]

[preowned]

It does, yes.

[ ... ]

Oh. Is this a wish about you?

[coastal]

[SHE IMMEDIATELY RAISES HER HANDS]

Stop - I haven't read it!! It might not come true if I read it!

[ . . . .




wait]

Is it about me?!

[preowned]

[ he's going to put it in his pocket ]

Forget I said anything. It might not come true if you know.

week 7, wednesday

[coastal]

[she really thinks he’d be upset about her going back without him

and that’s why regardless she’s with him just as they’re about to leave]

Ready to go?

[preowned]

Mmhm.

[ he'd prefer not to, but it's not like they have any choice here. ]

We should get tea.

[coastal]

Tea sounds fine - do you know how to prepare it?

[she’s looking for what he can make without her having to do it]

[preowned]

Of course I can.

[ tea, the one thing he knows how to do well ]

[coastal]

Then I’ll leave it to you.

[and she’ll glance back at the gateway one last time before moving to step through to get them back to the graveyard]

... yes, tea would be good. I have some things to tell you anyway.

[preowned]

[ yeah he is

not looking back again. it's fine. ]

What kind of things?
