Rika-chan and Princess Emeraude... And Gino-san and Kallen-san and so many others. Everyone else seems used to it, but... I don't think I can be. It's too sad.

More people are coming to the City again. Maybe they'll be here this time. Umi, Fuu... I miss you. There's so much I want to tell you about.


I don't think I could make someone cry. And I don't have any enemies here in the City, so I don't think I can do what the deities are asking.


...I feel like I'm forgetting something important. Wow, the snow's still really coming down hard, isn't it?

? Help with what now? You mean just the crying thing?

Sagara-san won't believe me.

Oh, for crying out...

For the love of MokonaBahamut...

Hikaru, Sagara Sousuke is a stark raving madman.

Private

[redstrength.livejournal.com]

I know, but he always tries his best to do his job. I think he does it too well sometimes.

Private

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

He doesn't do his job too well. He never actually accomplishes his stated objectives.

He thinks I'm a terrorist. You're getting off easy.

Private

[redstrength.livejournal.com]

...Really?

Private

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

Yes. I am trying to... steer him in the direction of cooperating with law enforcement. Before he, you know, shoots me.

Private

...M-maybe if he'll listen to me and believe me, I can try to help.

Private

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

Does he listen to you and believe you now?

Private

[redstrength.livejournal.com]

...I think he does, but I'm still under suspicion, so he'll be watching me.

Private

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

I really don't think it'll work. He might assume you're a terrorist too.

Sagara Sousuke automatically rejects any information that refutes something he thinks he already knows as the work of the enemy. You can't tell him, "you're wrong about this". I think probably the best you can do is make him believe, "circumstances have changed somewhat".

Private

...All right, I'll try for that the next time I talk to him.

Private

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

Good luck. I'm not saying I have the magic "make Sousuke sane" wand. That's just the approach I'm trying right now.

Private

[redstrength.livejournal.com]

But it's worth a try and I'm willing to try it.

Private

[mypace-musume.livejournal.com]

Okay. Take care, Hikaru. See you tomorrow for the movie.

Private

All right, Izumi-san... Thank you.
