Summary
Ever so gently, she murmurs. “I’ll give you a deal.”
Eternal Sugar raises a shaking hand to brush aside a stray tear. “A…a deal?”
“I will not come back with you to your paradise. My people need me, and I need them. I will not budge on this, no matter what you say or what you do.”
The other cookie sniffs, wavering dangerously on the edge of despair that she just managed to pull herself back from.
“…But instead, you can stay here-with me.”

Summary
⚠️ spoilers for both dgs games! ⚠️
“I think it’s not out of the question for you to make a full recovery.” Yuujin folds his arms in front of his chest. “But you should also be prepared for the slim possibility of this being a lifelong condition.”
Kazuma can feel the true length of forever stretching out in front of them in the ensuing hollow silence. In two or twenty or forty years, still sleeping upwards of fourteen hours a day, still dealing with pain splitting his head open, still struggling to organize his thoughts. Still forgetting, and forgetting, and forgetting, retreading the same steps ad nauseam. Like God is at his shoulder, mocking: This is what you get for cheating death.
kazuma hasn’t fully recovered from his head injury on the ss burya. he and ryuunosuke deal with the aftermath

Summary
[asoryuu week 2021 day 7: free day, or: a little bit of everything]
--
18 August, 1915 hrs
Even though Naruhodo's speech did not seem spectacular, or perhaps, precisely because of that, he delivered it perfectly with clear enunciation and even clarity. I'm somewhat bitter that I've lost to something so plain, but Professor Mikotoba reminded me that there was an elegance to simplicity. There's a validity to his words, but he doesn't know that when I spoke to Naruhodo after the competition, the man actually had the gall to tell me something as ridiculous as "speaking fast is a hobby of mine."
What an odd and infuriating character.

In which Kazuma writes about Ryuunosuke in his journal, and Ryuunosuke writes about Kazuma.
