The important thing is you had a good time!
Indeed it is.
And, in any event...perhaps I should let you both return home.
Yeah...
...
Both of you, please do not look so sad. It is true I will be returning home for now...
But I am going to fight like hell to return as soon as possible.
And until then, please do keep looking forward and doing your very best, alright?
Of course, always.
...But, can I ask you something? Just to get it off my mind?
Of course.
Sure, what's up?
...I still don't want it to happen this way, I really don't...but...
...if I did end up having to kill Shirogane...what would you say?
...
I would say that I understand how difficult of a decision that must be for you. I sincerely wish that it could have been someone else...
But it would change how I feel about you, so long as it did not change who you are. And I know it would not.
Same here. Please don't be so hard on yourself, Haji.
I...I know. We're just getting closer and it's on my mind...
But...thank you both.
Hajime? Please look at me.
...
You are one of the people in the world I want to marry. As are you, my darling Hibiki.
There will come a day when we can put all this behind us, where I will bring you all to my homeland and tell them how proud I am to be wed to such wonderful people.
...
Th...Thank you, Sonia.
Yeah...f-for real...
*She puts her arms around them* Thank you. My time here has been unexpected, but I would not trade it for anything.
