Our fight may yet one day be over

[The Chimera are no more. Their massive force is beaten, Asakim has finally been killed for real, and the driving force behind it all - Jii Edel, has been cast out. And now, the one pilot who was in the epicenter of it all, constantly harassed and tormented just to awaken her Sphere... Setsuko Ohara has no more strength to do anything but sit under the Virgola, staring up at the peaceful night sky.]

It's over, it's finally over. Jii Edel mentioned so much, Black History... it looks like alternate universes weren't faring much better than this one. And, it looks like I played right into Asakim Dowen's hands all along. To think all he really wanted was to die...

But...


But it's all over now. That... that's all that matters.

[Unable to control herself, Setsuko cries tears of relief.]

Supposed to...?

No! That's not true - or fair. People will get hurt, or worse, regardless, but if we can do something about it, we should!

[a_linear_mind]

I wanted to...

...Leigh, Denzel, Toby...

There are so many people that I couldn't do anything for. That's why this time...I thought that even if it cost me my life I would protect the people I care about.

That's why I didn't hesitate to do what I did.

[star_of_sad]

But, you see...

The people that you care about want to see you alive, too.

[a_linear_mind]

...I'm really selfish, aren't I?

[star_of_sad]

I don't know.

But you can be really inconsiderate of others and hot-headed while unwilling to open yourself up. That's the Willis I know.

[a_linear_mind]

...haha is that really the impression that I give, here I thought I was being too considerate of other people.

[He doesn't seem to be arguing the latter points though.]

[star_of_sad]

W... well, did you consider how I must've felt when you were trying to sacrifice yourself? Even if it meant saving the world and there really weren't many other options... okay. I see your point.

[a_linear_mind]

You might not believe me but...I really was.

[star_of_sad]

All things considered, after all we've been through...

[Setsuko takes a deep breath.]

How could I not believe you?

[a_linear_mind]

Heh, just hearing that from you is enough to make me glad that I'm still here.
