[continued from here]

You don't sounds that upset by it? Could it be you didn't like your plans that much?

[ quiet, for a moment. ]

It was a good plan, for what it was. How I feel about it, though...

...

It's complicated. But because I failed, I was able to save someone important to me in the end.

Oh...?

That's good then.

[ looks at him again, after a moment. ]

You seem to think I'm from that same story, do you not? I can only tell you about my world line, but if you have questions about anyone, you may as well ask.

What makes you think I'd have questions?

Why shouldn't you? If you wanted to hear my story, of course it's easier to answer questions.

[ a pause ]

... there would be no point in starting from the beginning.

What if the person I want to know about is you?

[ a much... longer pause. ]

... why?

Why not? You're the one who's here.

...

There isn't much interesting about me, without that story.

Where do you think it gets interesting?

[ thoughtful.

where would make the best start to a story. ]

... perhaps when I was brought to that worldline.

Is that not the beginning?

I had a life before that, you know.

[ so to speak. ]

People usually do, but how often does the story start with 'so-and-so was born'?

... well, you're not wrong. There really is nothing of worth before that time.

So... if you want to hear it, I'll begin there. Next time.

Next time? Why not now?

[ huffs a laugh, moving to push herself up. ]

Because I'm starting to overheat.

[blinks at her in confusion and then ABRUPTLY LOOKS AWAY, his cheeks are just red because he's also over heating too]

...go on first, then.

You can wear my coat when you come out.

[ laughs, and reaches over to ruffle his hair with a wet hand before climbing out to get her towel and get dressed. ]

[ it's a text! wow! ]

Eat dinner.

[stares at his phone for a while and then types back]

Are you a stalker?

I said I would text you. Why are you surprised?

I see you didn't deny it.

So you got lost in reading and didn't eat, is what you're saying.

Why is this a bigger priority for you than for me.

Someone has to care about you.

Go eat.

[he is baffled by this reply but it seems dangerous so he'll just.

go eat]

Send a picture too. I don't trust you not to ignore me and go back to reading.

[like ten minutes later]

This is going beyond stalking.

It's not stalking if you send it yourself, so do it already before the stalking becomes a reality.

[another few minutes then sends her a photo of a mostly empty bowl of what seems to be some kind of canned soup]

[ oh he actually did it. she doesn't respond for a few moments, but. ]

👍
Sleep well, Kim Dokja. See you in the morning.
