[ (There's a lot that goes over your head, admittedly.
But you don't like to see others cry. Especially not Chara, who -- along with Homura -- was someone that made you feel less alone. More than Water Lily, as welcoming as Vaugarde. More than Raha, who sought to understand you. More than Andrew, who was learning what it meant to be friends. The two of them had experiences no one else had, ones that matched yours-- not completely, you'd come to realize, but enough that you had let down your guard with them, had spoken plainly and without fear of judgment.
Like with Loop. The only other person who remembered, who knew what you were going through. Who felt as if they'd gone through it before in some weird way.)
And so, Siffrin tries again. They'd like to wipe Chara's tears, but they know how the other feels about people touching them-- so they don't, only moving half a step closer, hand raised a moment with that desire before it hesitates, falters. ]
What happens if you... just don't go back, then? If there's no world to return to. [ A slow inhale. ] Don't you... deserve a life beyond your role, and a happier ending that sticks?
