Upstairs Hallway (Young Aichi) and (Misaki)
(Misaki gets down to both boys' level.) "I'm sure. Aichi wouldn't be angry with either of you."
(...Although she's not sure what else to say... and not to mention that Aichi was always taking care of Young Aichi since she got here...)
(The poor boy probably hasn't had a meal since Aichi got captured...)
"...H-He wouldn't...?"
"He wouldn't. I promise."
Outside (Amnesiac Aichi)
-...Now that Jiren mentions it, Aichi's got a sickening feeling he might be right...-
-He hadn't really stopped to think about it, but between the weird times those headaches pop up, the unsettling feeling he has when he thinks about Link Joker, and the fact that there are times he doesn't feel quite like himself (His anger issues)...-
-...He's right. Aichi knows he's right.-
-Aichi's not sure what Link Joker even is. All he has to go off of is its name, but he's got a feeling... A deep feeling he should know what it is.-
-Something in him is screaming at him to remember.-
"...I-I need to remember what it is..."

Upstairs Hallway (Young Aichi) and (Misaki)
(Aichi smiles a bit upon hearing Misaki and Koata.) "Y-Yeah..."
(Older him is still off somewhere, but he's not mad at Aichi at least... That's such a relief... He looks up at Misaki)
"...Can you tell older me to come home soon if you see him at work? I really miss him..."
(...Really, this whole thing hurts Misaki's heart...) "...Yeah, I will..."
Outside (Amnesiac Aichi)
-...-
-Jiren's words hit Aichi. He doesn't want that to happen. He doesn't know what Link Joker is, but he can tell... It'll hurt everyone.-
-He's not sure how or why... but it will.-
-Aichi doesn't want that to happen.-
-He doesn't know anything about his life before appearing here... but he has people he wants to protect here.-
-He wants to protect them all. He doesn't know how, but he wants to protect them!-
"...I need to become stronger... I have to protect them all!"
-You can sense his drive, Jiren!-
-Aichi then finally notices Cliff. He didn't expect someone else to arrive...-
"O-Oh, hello... I'm Aichi Sendou."
-...It's probably dumbfounding how this boy can go from a strong sense of determination and will to... very mild.-
"It's nice to meet you."

Outside (Amnesiac Aichi)
"...It does?"
-He genuinely seems confused.-
-He's not entirely sure what—-
-Wait...-
-...Link Joker...?-
-It's the only thing he can think of... and he's got this strange feeling that...-
-Aichi puts a hand to his forehead. Headache coming on again. Once again when he's thinking of Link Joker...-
-...Jiren, the dark energy just swelled a bit right before Aichi put his hand to his head.-
