Streets (Aichi) and (Misaki)
-...It seems like they'll have to get a telescope somehow...-
-...What the heck is going on...?-
-However, before they can really debate it more, Aichi notices...-
"Oh, Andy!"
-It's been a while since he's seen her...-
-...-
-...Although... he has to admit that he's very worried...-
-Oriana had been keeping the universe stable, and then it collapsed... Aichi also hasn't seen her in the sky either...-
-...-
-...N-No, don't jump to the worst case scenario, Aichi... She's Oriana of all people! She can do all of those neat things, and she's a very busy woman... Maybe she just had to leave or something...?-
-Misaki looks over towards Andy, and silently thinks of the same things (barring the fact that Ori was holding the universe together).-
-It's strange... Ori's always in the sky, and yet she hasn't been...-
-She's got some strange powers so perhaps she just had to go somewhere or something, but... Misaki can't help but feel that cynical side of her emerge.-
"...Andy."
-Andy! It's Aichi and Misaki!-
—
Park (108)
-She believes him?-
"Thank you."
-And then he just looks at Kirby with a sort of blank confusion.-
"You—re poking her."
-...-
"...Why are you poking her?"
-He asks that with his hardly emotive expression and tone.-
Streets (Aichi) and (Misaki)
-O-Oh, right...-
-Honestly, even if he's doing a lot better after what happened...-
-...It still doesn't change the fact that those events still haunt him. He's getting better, but the memories... the feelings... the nightmares...-
-...They all hang over him, although he's getting better at combating them...-
-But still, he doesn't want to worry Andy so responds with a small smile.-
"...Yeah. I'm fine."
-...Perhaps Andy can tell there's a very huge story behind all of that, just by looking into his eyes. That smile is more just an attempt at reassurance than anything.-
"I'm sorry, everyone must have been so worried..."
-He would never want to worry everyone, and he realizes that the news of his appearance somehow spread to more than just Leos, Sthesia, Misaki, and the BLADE group...-
-Misaki notices that Aichi seems to be trying to keep that hidden, and...-
"...We don't need to worry about it now. They won't be taking him again."
-Leos, Cross, and the others stopped the Gundam Thieves.-
-No one's touching Aichi again. Not on her (or any of his friends') watch.-
Park (108)
-Aichi stares at the doughnuts.-
-And stares.-
-And stares.-
"What are those?"
-THIS CHILD HAS NOT HAD DOUGHNUTS?!-
—
Streets (Aichi) and (Misaki)
-Aichi feels really guilty about that...-
"...I'm back now though, and I'm not going to disappear again."
-Aichi ends up seeming somber upon the mention of Andy's mom...-
-Oh, he hopes he's wrong...-
"...Um... How is your mom doing? We haven't seen her in a while..."
"We thought she might be busy, and we wanted to make sure."
-Misaki also hopes that she's wrong.-
-They don't want to lose another friend...-
Streets (Aichi) and (Misaki)
-...-
-...No. No, no, no... It can't be...-
"...Y-You haven't...?"
-...-
"...There's nowhere she might have needed to go...?"
[[gray:"...
-This doesn't necessarily prove anything... Maybe there's something that Oriana needed to do that Kora doesn't want to tell Andy about!-
-...Although... the two of them highly doubt that...-
-It's true, isn't it...? Oriana is...-
-...Andy, both of them seem solemn now. Or at least Aichi seems upset. Misaki's a bit more level, but perhaps it's because she's forcing herself to (and not to mention she's better at keeping a poker face than Aichi).-
-...Something's wrong. Something's really wrong.-
Park (108)
-He is supposed to take it?-
-He takes the doughnut out of Kirby's nub.-
"Thank you."
-He looks down at it, looking it over.-
-It's a pastry of some kind.-
-Well... he supposes he's supposed to eat it?-
-He takes a bite.-
-Nom nom nom...-
-...-
"It—'s good."
-A tiny smile in response to that, along with continuing to eat the doughnut.-
-He likes it! He likes the doughnut!-
-And now he just watches with a mildly perplexed expression as Kirby and Alice race to eat the doughnuts.-
-They must be hungry!-
—
Streets (Aichi) and (Misaki)
-They can't lie to her...-
-They can't pretend everything's fine...-
-She's wanting an answer from them, and it's fair for her to know, isn't it...?-
-...But... they can't guarantee that it's the case...-
-...But the crushing feeling in them both...-
"...S-She was..."
-Aichi has lowered his head a bit. His bangs hiding his eyes just a bit.-
-He's definitely upset.-
"...S-She was trying to make sure everyone could escape..."
"...We can't guarantee it, but..."
-Misaki's once again speaking with that eerily level tone... the one that just feels just off enough to know that she's actually hurt.-
-...Andy... You know what they're saying, don't you...?-

-Hey Aichi, Misaki, look! It's Andy!-
-Just kinda...walking by, looking a little lost-
