❝ s-stop saying whatever you want! ❞
❝ that's what makes it interesting! it's because it's unknown that we can create something new! ❞
❝ i wonder if there are things you learn by being in solitude… ❞
❝ when times get tough, it's okay to run away. ❞
❝ what's your reason for running away!? ❞
❝ oh, what am i gonna do with you? ❞
❝ i gave my all for this moment… ❞
❝ i've done a lot both in the shadows and out in the open. ❞
❝ i'm just… i just feel frustrated for some reason. ❞
❝ oh, we can't have that. why don't you have some sweets and take a breather, ______? ❞
❝ i cannot accept some foreign body that's come from a world with no god. ❞
❝ this is the world we've always lived in…we can't help but love it— love everyone who lives in this world. ❞
❝ so if you are lost…i want to be the one to give you the push on your back that you need. ❞
❝ i thought this would be the perfect place for you to be honest with yourself. ❞
❝ why, the human world is filled with desire. ❞
❝ i watched so many people's emotions for so long! i can tell what they're thinking just by looking at their faces, at their eyes! ❞
❝ this city has remained stagnant for too long. nothing exists forever. ❞
❝ you've had a long day. i brought you dinner. ❞
❝ have fun and look forward to the future—new encounters, farewells, worries, everything. they'll all be the fuel that will make you who you are. ❞
❝ but it's not exactly a "masterpiece"… i wouldn't be that happy if i got this. ❞
❝ 'this world is a stage… even the king is a player.' then i, too, shall play my role until i take my final breath, my friend! ❞
❝ nothing will get in the way of everyone's happiness! ❞
❝ why can't you understand what i'm trying to protect?! ❞
❝ why do you insist on chasing after things you've never even seen before?! ❞
❝ what do you say? do you have the determination to go down that path? ❞
❝ what do you mean? why can't you say out loud what you think and feel? ❞
❝ yes, you're right… it's scary to be alone. ❞
❝ being betrayed by those you trusted… it must be painful, scary, and sad for you. ❞
❝ y-you're… prostrating yourself to me!? ❞
❝ those words – they're not something someone who doesn't understand would say. they're something someone who understands their own ignorance would say. ❞
❝ they're not something someone powerless would say. ❞
❝ well… i know i said it doesn't concern you, but i'd be lying if i said it didn't make me happy. thank you for putting me before yourself. ❞
❝ once i have my mind set, i become blind to everything around me… ❞
❝ you said you were able to work hard all this time because i've been right next to your goal… i'm the same. i also worked hard to make everyone happy. ❞
❝ it's fine. this is all i can do to help. ❞
❝ even if i were to walk down the same path as you, our journeys will never be the same. ❞
❝ where once flourished an empire, now is only an empty desert… ❞
❝ a farewell isn't tragedy… it's the start of a journey for new encounters. ❞
❝ ______ ran away from home?! ❞
❝ i'm just…the moon that's painted on the stage set. a paper-thin moon— a paper moon. ❞
❝ there's a hidden truth somewhere in this world. i want…to learn it. ❞
❝ because you're an outsider, you can't cause trouble for anyone. ❞
❝ you have to be a good girl and make everyone happy. ❞
❝ but everyone set off on their own journey and left you behind by yourself. so you felt lonely and sad… ❞
❝ i didn't want anyone to know that i'm empty. ❞
❝ i didn't want to ruin the stage. that's why i smiled more and acted brighter than anyone else—to spread happiness to others. ❞
❝ i wanted to feel needed, so i continued to sing, dance and act— ❞
❝ so do not be ashamed to fall. do not be afraid to be nobody. it's because you fall that you can stand up. it's because you are nobody that you can become somebody. ❞
❝ so you see? that's how i think… i'm different from all of you. and that's why…you couldn't become a family with me. ❞
❝ why can't you all just leave me alone?! ❞
❝ will you just stop trying to have it your own way? you have no idea what i've been through…!just like how there's no stage that doesn't end…there's nothing that never changes! even if the world doesn't change, you can change yourself! ❞
❝ because it was all for everyone's sake! i could do my best because it was for everyone! ❞
❝ well…it was the talk of the town. ❞
❝ what should i do… i… i had no idea she had such strong feelings about the word "mother". ❞
❝ i felt like i'd finally found the place i belong to. the family i'd always wanted… but on the way back as i was walking by myself, i looked up at the moon and thought, "if we're family, why am i walking back by myself?". ❞
❝ i always thought i had nothing. i was scared to have nothing. that's why i was so desperate to shine. ❞
❝ she changed into someone i didn't know. ❞
❝ pfft… hahaha! don't make me laugh. ❞
❝ don't… don't pretend like you know me. no one understands me! ❞
