Yeah, usually it's just annoying, but in this case...

[ he trails off, taking a drink, and then the void comes back for matsu memshare part 2 featuring an actual memory this time (06:26 - 10:24).

he just quietly goes back to his drink afterward. ]

[ well.

this explains so much.

todomatsu was polite enough to not comment on what he saw, but there is something owner would like to confirm, ]

Is your father alright?

[ sets his glass back down and nods. ]

Mm, he's pretty much back to normal now.

Oh, good, good! It's always frightening, when there's a health scare.

Yeah... it was.

[ ... ]

We never really had to deal with anything like that before. The possibility of losing someone for real, I mean.

... well, even in typical situations, I suppose that is normal. It is difficult to imagine grief until it is overtaking you.

But... this whole situation we are in must be difficult to adapt to?

Yeah. What happened to Dad was the second to last episode of that season, and that's... when there's actually the potential for a big permanent change. Serious stuff doesn't happen right at the beginning of the season.

...So Luke and Dahut dying less than a week into things in a way that was clearly not intended to be comedic was... kind of hard to wrap my head around. Made it really obvious that things here weren't working by the rules I was used to. Everything's a lot more... fragile, I guess.

[ owner does not watch tv so half of this means absolutely nothing to him, but he thinks he gets the overall sentiment of it after being around everyone for weeks. ]

And things have not really gotten easier since. We had our mission right after.

Yeah, haha... Kind of got thrown right into the deep end.

[ todomatsu... really wild how different everyone who got brought here is. ]

How do you feel about it all now?
