(Slithers back to the room after a while, the new gal presumably finding her way as well... for i must sleep now...)

-The goat brushes a finger against the top of the tv. He frowns as he finds a layer of dust on his fingertip-
No one’s given this place a proper cleaning in weeks, maybe months.
...
Well! Doesn’t hurt to start now!
-The goat pulls up his sleeves and begins dusting the entire main room by himself-
DeerRoof (Aichi)
-Aichi is simply sitting on the roof, lost in thought.-
-Still trying to sort through everything going on in his head...-
-His head's still a mess, and he just... it feels like he's never going to be able to snap out of this...-
"..."
-He sighs. Just so much... So much is going through his head all at once.-
-Guilt. Regret. Self-hatred. Sadness. Frustration. Longing. Fear. Distrust. Gratitude.-
-It's all just swirling around in him constantly, and it's so conflicting that he just doesn't even know what to do when he has a free moment to stop and think.-
Roof (Aichi)
-!!!-
-Sthesia... He hasn't been alone with her since...-
-...-
"...O-Oh, hello... S-Sthesia..."
-It's so maddening... Even now he feels weirdly flustered around her, and he's already told himself so many times that there's no hope for his childish crush.-
"..."
-...He... still hasn't told her flat out. She obviously knows, and perhaps it's redundant for him to even tell her...-
-...But...-
-...He still feels that drive to tell her, once and for all.-
-To tell her that...-
-...To tell her that he loves her.-
-And then maybe...-
-...Maybe he'll be able to move on...-
"...S-Sthesia, I... I-I've been, um..."
-...Sthesia, you already know what he's trying to force himself to discuss, don't you?-
Roof (Aichi)
-...-
"...Y-Yes..."
-More confirmations that she already knows...-
-Just... OK, Aichi... You can do this...-
"...I-I want to be honest with you..."
-Instead of just trying to hide it like he has been... Instead of cowardly fearing the worst without moving forward...-
-Aichi wants to finally get it out.-
-...-
"...A-And I know you already know, but I..."
-...Seems like he's slowly working towards it, Sthesia...-

Roof (Aichi)
-...Just... take his time.-
-...She said something similar when he was trying to snap out of his brainwashing...-
-No, don't think about that right now.-
"...I-I'm not sure when it all started..."
-He really isn't. It was a long while back, but he can't remember just when it started... Just one day he found himself feeling... different about Sthesia.-
"...O-One day I felt really nervous around you... I... thought I was sick at first..."
-He's got a sheepish expression, even if he can't quite get himself to look Sthesia in the eyes.-
"...I-It was so strange... I-I never felt like that before, and I didn't know what to do..."
-He was so oblivious at first...-
"..I-I didn't know what was wrong with me, and I couldn't even think straight around you..."
-Muramasa ended up helping him realize what it was he was feeling, but he ended up feeling so much more scrambled afterwards...-
"...I-I wasn't sure what to do when I realized what it was... I-I guess I..."
-He's still trying to sort through his words...-
"...I felt paralyzed..."
Roof (Aichi)
-'Normal'... It sure doesn't feel like it...-
"...I-It felt anything but normal... I-I felt like I was soaring at times, but others I felt like I just wanted to hide..."
-...Sthesia and the others are too kind to him...-
"...I-I was afraid to tell you, and when I tried to talk to Leos..."
-...He couldn't tell Leos everything either...-
"...I-I realized I was afraid to tell him too..."
-...Afraid because...-
"...Y-You two are better friends than I ever could have asked for... T-To tell you both that I had feelings like that..."
-...He feared...-
"...I-I feared that it would destroy it all... T-That friendship, that happiness, those memories... I-I was afraid that it would all end..."
-...-
"...A-And then Misaki appeared and I knew she'd be angry that I told Leos I loved her... I-I didn't want to lose her either..."
-...-
"...I-I felt trapped..."
-...He was so scared of his own feelings and how you'd both react...? You guys wouldn't do something like that, but apparently the idea consumed him...-
-...No wonder the kid seemed so awkward for a while... He had all of this in his head for so long...-
-...And that's what they manipulated.

-He should have said something. He knows he should have, and yet he couldn't...-
"...I-I..."
-He's still trying to sort through his feelings enough to figure out what to say.-
"...I-I didn't want to go back..."
-...? 'Didn't want to go back'...?-
"...I-I didn't want to feel like I did before Kai gave me Blaster Blade... Lonely, weak, depressed, miserable, hollow..."
-The idea of losing his friends was crushing.-
"...I-I could picture it so clearly... I-I could picture how confessing would change everything... Y-You wouldn't have accepted my feelings, and I know that... a-and Leos..."
-He would have...-
"...I-I was so sure he'd be angry because I broke his trust..."
-Aichi lied to him, after all...-
"...I-I tried to tell myself that none of you would... abandon me like that..."
-...Talking about being abandoned seemed like it was especially difficult for him, considering what he experienced during that torture...-
"...B-But it wouldn't go away... T-That feeling that if I told the truth that everything would fall apart..."
-...Geez, Sthesia... Aichi's had a lot of issues he's been holding back...-

-Aichi hadn't been expecting the hug, and once again he has to keep himself from crying from it (along with Sthesia's words).-
-Still, he manages to keep it in for the most part.-
-They wouldn't. They wouldn't leave him. No matter what the hidden side of him that refuses to believe it says...-
-...They wouldn't leave him alone. And he's... he's eternally thankful.-
-His entire life he had been so lonely... up until these last couple of years.-
-Now he has so much more than he ever could have imagined, and while the pain is overwhelming...-
-...He still doesn't regret meeting Leos and Sthesia... or anyone else in this place.-
-And he never will.-
-For now though... he's just going to savor this hug.-
-It's the last time he's going to let himself feel like this in Sthesia's hugs.-
"...T-Thank you..."
-...Maybe that's why he fell in love with her. He hasn't really met that many girls or interacted with that many of them on a noteworthy basis (at least before he appeared in the Room), but...
-...Sthesia's always so nice, warm, open, supportive, trustworthy, intelligent... Even if she teases him quite a bit, she's still so different than anyone else he has ever met...-
-For her to be so kind to him... even after all that has happened, even after all that he has told her, even after everything he did in her name (well, sort of) while brainwashed...-
-This is the type of person Sthesia is, and...-
-...He couldn't help but feel different about her...-
-...But it's...-
-...It's time to move on...-
"...I..."
-He pauses. Should he really say it...?-
-...-
-...He... wants to say it. One time.-
-And so, the words he has been longing to tell her for so long...-
-He calmly speaks them.-
"...I love you, Sthesia..."
-It's unfair of him to say it, but he still felt the need. That necessity to truly voice it.-
-To get it all out.-
"...I'm sorry... I wanted to say it one time... before I..."
-...Before he lets go.-

-...-
-...It does sting to hear the rejection...-
-...But he'll live. He'll live through it, become stronger from it...-
"No, don't apologize..."
-It just... wasn't meant to be, is all...-
"...I know you don't feel the same... and that's all right."
-It really is. He feels like a weight has been lifted off of his shoulders, honestly.-
"...It wasn't meant to happen..."
-There's someone out there that's better for her. Aichi can clearly picture it now.-
-Sthesia, being so much happier in the arms of another man...-
-...A familiar one...-
-He manages a small and soft smile, although it's still clear that there's pain behind it. He looks up at Sthesia and she can tell that while it hurts him (as any rejection would), the words he speaks are true.-
"I know you'll be happy with someone, Sthesia... Even if it's not me, I'm glad that you'll be happy."
-It's not a lie. Even if he feels pain from rejection... In the end he just wants Sthesia to be happy.-
-He says all of that with certainty, Sthesia. Perhaps more certainty than you've heard from him in a long time...-

"You're welcome..."
-...? She thinks he'll find someone...?-
"...I-I don't know..."
-He hadn't really stopped to think about what would happen to him...-
-...He can't help but worry he'll never find someone, but...-
-...Maybe... Maybe there is someone out there... Someone that would love him.-
-He can't help but get a little pink as he tries to imagine someone that would return his feelings for them...-
"...I-It would... be nice..."
-He wonders what kind of girl it would be...-
"...I-I can't begin to imagine who it would be... I could only picture you for so long..."
-Sthesia can imagine who though~!-
