It's hard to imagine Yuuto as Den-O. Do Momotaros and the others like him as much as they like Nogami? I wonder if someone is making sure he eats enough shiitake...

Yeah. [nods] ... Which makes you the Deneb from the other timeline, right?

Exactly! Do you like the DenLiner?

[... strange question.] Yeah... it's fun there, most of the time.

[He's just checking up] Momotaros and the others take care of you?

[And as weird as it is for Deneb to be concerned about him like this, Ryotarou will go with it.] Of course. Sometimes they get me into trouble too, but... they mean well.

And you have Airi-san.

Ahh. I'm glad.

I do. ... but so does he, from what I've heard. He just won't go to her?

[little smile for him]

He does and he doesn't. He can be very stubborn when he puts his mind to it. [Deneb loves him, even if he doesn't listen]

You mean he refuses to go to her, right?

Sometimes. He does go every now and then, but not very often and usually not because he wants to..

But because Yuuto drags him there... [pause] Why doesn't he want to? I mean.. I know she... But, that shouldn't be enough of a reason to...!

He feels like he doesn't belong, and he doesn't like bothering Airi-san. I wish he would go and visit more often, though. He does enjoy it, at least some of the time.

Doesn't belong...? But she's Nee-san. [looking kind of sad now] He shouldn't have to feel like he can't be with her...

I agree. Maybe if he visits more often he'll be more comfortable there.

But that doesn't help the now, does it? I also think... if Yuuto is engaged to Nee-san, even in that timeline... that would make him uncomfortable, too. Don't you?

Yes, but he can't get used to it if he won't see them. It isn't good for him to spend all of his time alone.

He probably thinks it is, though. Deneb, can you give him a reason to not be alone, even though he's Zeronos?

Everyone needs friends. He's lonely, even if he's trying to keep going without anyone. No one, especially Zeronos, should have to live that way.

... I agree. But if he won't let himself make friends...

I can still try to convince him. And Sakurai helps! Ryotarou doesn't fight it as much as he used to, I think.

Really? [blinkblink] That's good... right?

It's progress! I'll be happy if we can just keep going like we have been. Sakurai seems to be getting better at fighting, maybe Zeronos won't be needed at all, soon. [Optimism never hurt anyone... right?]

How have you been going? [small pause] ... Maybe.
