[ He tries so hard sometimes, but no dice. It's privately absurd that Kaoru can be completely chill with someone like Elliot, who has likely tripped and fallen over his own too feet several times in his life, but them's the breaks. It's not as if he doesn't see his relatives as important — it's just hard to properly venerate them when all of natural blood-related family members are as dead as doornails. Vincent had come and gone like a fleeting dream, the same with Reim, and he didn't have the slightest inkling as to Gilbert's whereabouts, or even his current state of mind, what with the upheaval of pretty much everything over their extended stay in Tellus.
It's stupid. Elliot poses hypotheticals on others that he's more inclined to answer himself, but no one ever applauded him for keeping a cool head under pressure, either. ]
You don't believe in anything after this life.
[ How anticlimactic. He folds one hand over the other, absently thumbing his wrist. ]
Still — even if the circumstances in which we were able to meet like this have been skewed to the agenda of others — I'm glad I was able to meet you. I hope you will be able to return home. I've heard rumors that those who disappear have supposedly found a way back, but — if you ask me — it's more likely that they were forcibly removed for one insurrection or another with the excuse of faulted code that makes up this strange world.
For your sake and hers, I hope your sister hasn't succumbed to the same fate that likely befell the rest of those who have departed since our arrival.
