Uh. Well, they're based on memories for sure. I don't know that they're ours, but I guess it makes sense, with the holes that are filled up with your memories instead?
That's what my guess had been, originally, since it sounded like no one was able to account for any similarities when talking about the trips. [ back when they had no idea if they would like each other... their cr... ] I ask, because there was someone in ours.
Someone with hair like this. [ He reaches, and pinches a little of her pink hair between his fingers. ] She was trying to warn us.
With wings, right? Shigeo told me. I don't... remember her at all, but I've seen her. In a memory. I can't remember her face or what she sounded like, or anything, but that's my... that was my mom.
[ she reaches up to wipe at her eyes and sort of laughs, weakly ]
I can't believe you lost an arm in my memories. Some Leader.
[ He looms over her, anyways, so sitting down so he's more on her level serves two functions. One being that he's in a constant state of pain and is still ill, the other being closer to her. ]
Swan, what I did in those memories was my own choice. I would make many of those choices again, regardless, because that is the person that I am, even knowing that my arm would be lost. It was a small price to pay, to ensure that those three would come back safely.
And your mother tried to warn us. That, and the report Shigeo found, was more than worth what happened.
... Alright. [ still clearly feels bad but, y'know, priorities. ] They're still memories, even if they're fractured and incomplete. I don't know how much that warning really meant, if anything.
