[Itsuki listens carefully, expression neutral. But his emotions ebb and flow a little, at their words.]

I've always thought that granting that miracle was the solution.

Then again, I'm all about turning away from the hard parts in life. ...Maybe that's why it's hard for me to change.

[oh. sympathy at this response.]

Many do. Even me. It all depends which parts are the ones you don't want to look at. [...] What kind of miracle would you try to grant?

[nightchild]

[he thinks this over]

The kind where you don't ever have to be sad again? ...Even if it means believing in an illusion.

[graverot]

[oh. he nods, understanding somehow. there's certainly empathy there.]

It would be nice, not to have to be sad. A little hollow, but nice.

[nightchild]

...But it's not something you'd choose for yourself.

[shaking his head.]

If something has happened that's worth being sad about, I'd like the opportunity to feel sad about it. I think those feelings are usually necessary ones.
