I'm sorry I bumped into you because I wasn't looking. ??? N-No, it was my fault. I was standing in your way. Elysia Did the drink spill on you? ??? Not at all. I caught the cup, see? ??? Thanks for the sparkling water-I was just getting thirsty. Elysia What fast reflexes! You're no average soldier. Elysia I've met plenty of war heroes, and your physique is on par with theirs, if not better. Elysia Are you a… pro athlete or something? Narrator The white haired youth scratched his head shyly, apparently processing her straightforward compliments. ??? You flatter me. I only played basketball for a few years. Actually, I was a student a few months ago. ??? By the way, have you seen a purple-haired girl who might be wearing glasses? I'm looking for her. ??? Sorry about being nervous. I've never gone to a formal before. Hope I'm not making a fool of myself! Elysia A purple haired girl… I did see one at… ??? Thank you so much! Oh, I still haven't introduced myself. How rude of me! Kevin I'm Kevin, newly enlisted in the MOTHs. And you are? Mei That's… how you met Kevin? Elysia Yep, those were the days! We were young… not that I'm older now. Elysia Kevin's changed a lot, though. He used to know how to treat a girl right. Mei Indeed. You two have a deeper connection with the MOTHs among the Flame-Chasers. Mei But… I'm more concerned with what the other man said, whom you met in the training room. Elysia He's not any man, he's A to. You should've seen him. Mei Ato… The name appeared in Kevin's and Kosmas memories. I believe Ato became a MANTIS as well. Mei He seemed to… let slip your background. Elysia Ooh… Now that's a history I'm unfamiliar with, being a little girl and all. Elysia Vladivostok 51… Is this the right name? I was supposedly born there, yet it never got to me. Elysia I'd be homesick if I was old enough to remember anything besides being taken away by the MOTHs. Mei Being taken away? Elysia I wasn't the only one many townspeople were taken. The MOTHs were searching for something, but to no avail, so they released the townspeople. Elysia Sadly, the incident wasn't officially recorded. Mobius said it was classified as a… mishap? Elysia I'm disappointed, really. I expected my birth to hold secrets of historical importance. Elysia What happened next is predictable. I blossomed into a charming girl, came across the MOTHs again, and the wheels of fate began to turn. Mei That's it? Elysia If you don't believe me, you can do a little research. Narrator Elysia glanced at the typewriter. Elysia It's fine. Narrator The typewriter quickly spat out another page. Narrator Like Elysia said, Vladivostok 51 was an obscure town that the MOTHs locked down for a time. Its residents were confirmed to be normal, however. Elysia Have you accepted the fact that I was just a pretty girl? Mei Leaving aside the conclusion, you guys weren't always like this, according to the files. The passing of time has more or less changed you. Mei It's really something, seeing you… and Kevin. Elysia Hmm, how should I put it? It was a… step-by-step process. Narrator He was not within the cheerful crowd. Narrator It was not only because of his obtrusive white hair, but also his countenance that could be construed as mourning. Su It's strange to see this look on your face. Kevin …Su. Su Elysium Everlasting… The scenery here reminds me of the old days. Su On our way here, we saw a poster of Eden. We went to her concert together. Kevin Yeah, that was a long time ago. Su It really was. Su Kevin, what's on your mind? Su Or what did you recall? Kevin Just some old episodes. Su Old episode's about her. Kevin Yeah. Su Not all people possess such a pure mind. Kevin But she does. Su You don't usually praise her directly. Su You've been opposing any fanciful ideas she put forward all along. Su So much that she frequently came to see me for your actual opinions. Kevin She's just chatty… any topic will do. Kevin I don't want to deny her wild thinking. Only… time doesn't wait for us to realize our dreams. Su But in the realm, we're no longer bound by time, and possibly have the chance to fulfill our last wishes. Kevin Perhaps. Su You haven't changed, Kevin. Kevin What is it? Su You wear that expression and look into the distance every time you're troubled. Su When we were in school, it was the rooftop. After joining the MOTHs… it was usually the top floor of the abandoned high-rise. Kevin … You know me too well. Su As a psychic, channeling my power to read the minds of others… should be easy. Su But doing so is against my principle. Whether to talk about problems and seek help are the choices of others. Su Especially you, Kevin. I want to listen to and share your problems not as a doctor or a soldier… but as a friend. Kevin Thank you, Su. I know I'm worrying you. Kevin You're right, as sims, we can do what the real us couldn't. Kevin I have my own considerations. Kevin Although I can't reveal it yet, I promise you that you'll be the first to know when the time comes. Su You don't have to promise me anything. Su Even best friends have secrets. I only hope that when you're in need, you'll think of someone who will surely lend a hand. Kevin I will Su Kevin, as for the rest… I'll let you figure them out yourself. You could use the time. Narrator Su waved goodbye to Kevin. Narrator A short distance away, people were still having a good time. Narrator Kevin lowered his head and a blue light scattered from his hand. He started at the flower- it had never faded. Kevin Elysia… Kevin Back then, were you and we… truly out of choices? Kevin If I saw through your goal earlier… Kevin Would we… come to a different end? Aponia (Dust-laden secrets…) Aponia (Mei, are you really the one… who can change everything?) Aponia … Is this… paint? Aponia Griseo is also here? Aponia: Griseo just can't seem to change her habit of drawing everywhere Aponia: Did she go this way? Aponia. So enthusiastic… To a child, this place is like a dreamland, I suppose? Narrator Swoosh, swoosh… Narrator The young girl was painting the scenery before her seriously. Narrator Painting from different angles, using different colors, in different moods. Griseo … A strange picture. Aponia Griseo, are you replicating? Griseo Ah… Mama Aponia. Griseo I'm feeling. Griseo I am feeling… their story. Aponia Oh… That mural… Aponia Griseo… Did you see something? Griseo Not yet, so I am going to feel for it, through my brush and paint. Griseo This is a weird painting. Full of happiness and sadness. Filled with white and black. Aponia Because… it is precisely meant to be that kind of art. Griseo Mama Aponia, do you know the story behind that painting? Aponia Yes… I often sculpt, so you can say I have some affinity with artworks like murals, Aponia It's a very, very old ballad… Aponia "He fell from the sky that day." Aponia "The people on the ground looked up and thus saw the starry night sky." Griseo How… tragic… Aponia That's right. Life is always a never-ending cycle of tragedies. Aponia But because it's a tragedy, the traces it leaves behind are especially majestic and radiant. Griseo This is too complicated for Griseo. But Griseo likes this painting. Griseo Mama Aponia, are those… stars on the painting? Griseo Griseo… likes clouds… and the starry sky. Griseo How can I live together with the stars? Aponia …I don't know, Griseo. Aponia Every child loves the starry sky. Aponia But slowly, you will see beyond the stars and into the deep… This is what we call growing up. Griseo That's why… Kosma is afraid of growing up. Aponia Yeah. Griseo But I have this feeling. Looking at this painting gives me this feeling. Griseo It…likes us. Aponia You need to rely on the "ark" for the answer… Hmm? Kosma … Shut up, Aponia. Aponia Kosma? Kosma Stop right there… that's what you should do. |
