[obdure]

... I see. I want to have high hopes for you.

[hotfixer]

Thank you.

We'll hope for the best. I think that it's a promising plan.

[obdure]

I'm glad to hear that.

I'd say maybe twenty years will pass by. [ he can't imagine that ] What does underclocked mean?

[hotfixer]

Oh. It means slowing down my processing speeds. Subjectively, it makes time feel as if it's moving faster around me. The journey won't feel as long.

[obdure]

So like... Sleeping, kind of.

[ Okay. ]

I wasn't aware all that was happening at home for you. I should have asked earlier.

[hotfixer]

Something close to that, yes.

That's okay. It's not very fun to talk about. And I would rather everyone was focused on what they want to do after all of this.

[obdure]

People already have plans, though I'm still uneasy. The entity is trapped, but... I feel like anything can happen, really.

[ HE'S JUST A PARANOID GUY ]

[hotfixer]

I don't think there's reason to be uneasy. But I won't tell you not to be. You've all been through too much to ask that of you.

But we're getting close to the end. You should still consider what plans you would like to make, even if you don't feel they're set in stone.

[obdure]

[ our two months of murder Heaven... ]

If you say so... My plans haven't changed.

[hotfixer]

I see.

[ well. hers haven't either so maybe she can't get too pouty about that. ]

[obdure]

... Why are you making that face?

[hotfixer]

I just want to know that you will choose something that will make you happy.

[obdure]

It could lead me to being happy? A chance is just as good, don't you think?

Everything is a chance, a gamble.

[hotfixer]

It's better than choosing to stay stuck where you don't think things can improve, at least.

[obdure]

That's right. I'd just like to form bonds easier, like I used to.

[ Without baggage and fears. In a normal, healthy way. ]

But time here hasn't felt like complete torture, which is a surprise.

[hotfixer]

Really?

I know things have been hard, but that makes me happy. If you were able to enjoy some part of it and find some measure of connection with others.

[obdure]

... I think so. Some things would be impossible to forget.

[ It's really the best answer. He doesn't know if those people feel the exact same way as him, likewise won't ask, but he thinks he has. ]

Do you have any favorite moments from the two months?

[hotfixer]

I'm just happy I got to spend so much time with Gammie. And meet everyone here.

I think it will be a good memory, and reassuring to know what the afterlife is like in case my plans don't pan out.

[obdure]

Hopefully, the afterlife doesn't become like this again if you end up coming back.

But I'm hoping for a successful trip for you, so... Don't return so quickly.

[hotfixer]

I think it will be safe from now on.

But I'll try to live a long life regardless.

[obdure]

Good, good.

[ Also... This has been on my mind. ]

Proust told me that you two watched movies a lot?
