[everything should be set on fire right now with all this DENIAL

he touches his head and grimaces,]

I feel like my head's gonna burst if I keep thinking any harder.

[georeject]

[it's... fine...]

... I kind of know what you mean by that.

[nightchild]

[he pats the seat next to him,]

Wanna talk about it?

[georeject]

[they sit down, very gently.]

I don't know if there's anything to say...? It just feels as though I'm missing something.

[nightchild]

[hm...]

...Same here. Mete-chan mentioned a name? She said someone named Bu-chan would worry about me.

[georeject]

...

Do you not remember Buzen?

[nightchild]

[he ruffles his head and sighs,]

Apparently not. Hot Pants said he was my boyfriend...

[georeject]

... Yes, that was the case.

[nightchild]

...What kind of guy forgets their own boyfriend?

[it's said a little wryly, though there's some fear there too. still]

...This must be even worse for you, Te-kun. Feels like you should get a pass from getting your memories messed up.

[georeject]

... Whatever the case, it's not your fault, Itsuki. [they smile.] Hah... at least I'm used to forgetting things.

[nightchild]

[...]

That goes for you too, you know. You can be used to something and not want it to happen to you.

[georeject]

[...]

I'm just sorry that I seemed to cause someone pain.

[nightchild]

[holds their hand]

...Yeah. I get it. [y'all need therapy now, like itsuki.] Knowing you though, you'll definitely make up for it.

[georeject]

[holds itsuki's hand back]

... I can only try.

[nightchild]

...We both will. We'll push each other up whenever we need a boost, yeah?

[georeject]

... Yes. Of course.

[nightchild]

[hehe]

...If we still don't remember after tomorrow, then let's remind each other of who we've forgotten.

[georeject]

... Sounds good to me.
