Tch... it's not like anyone ever asked me for any of that. No one ever... No one ever relied on me or asked me for help. No one thinks I'm good for anything. That's why whenever I try to help at trial I get shot down.
How many of them even know what you can do? I know because you talk to me and tell me things like that. I guess there's the profiles, but do any of us actually read those things...?
Then they aren't giving you the credit you're due. Maybe because they keep finding things to argue with you about? I don't know, man, I'm not really an expert on people. But you're not going to convince me that you're useless.
To knowing that you won't get deleted with all of Amatsuki? In case you didn't realize, that matters to me a lot!
...I can't answer that, though. For all I know, they do still have spirits in the real Japan, but regular humans there don't know about it. That's how it is for us, back home. I guess you'll just have to wait and see.
Is... is it really alright? I mean, tree spirits... we're born to protect our forests. Even if mine wasn't real, that's still what I am. Can I really be a tree spirit without a tree?
That's up to you, isn't it? It's your life, and your wish. You should be able to do whatever you want with it.
If you're worried about not being able to leave your forest if you get your tree back... maybe part of the wish is being able to do that? I don't know, Tsuyu.

Maybe I'll find something useful to do tomorrow.

Once we find out what's coming tomorrow, we can figure it out.

We just have to change the story, I guess? Unassign everyone.
no subject
Everyone should be unassigned already, if we did it right this week.
[ well. everyone except lux but leo isn't going to be the one to deal with her, unfortunately, ]
But yeah. Change it, finish it... whatever. Then we graduate and go home, in theory.

Don't worry, dude. Soon you'll get to be a real boy!

You're an idiot.

You can say that all you want, but it doesn't change that I'm right! That's what you were going to use your wish for, right?

[ me, softly: does leo actually know it's a book too or nah ]
And I'm... looking forward to it.

[Huffs. He does take Leo's hand though.]
... You don't think it'll turn me into a human, do you? Since magic doesn't exist in Higan...

Maybe... And if I could find them... I could help them too. Even if I... Even if I don't have a connection to the forest anymore.

I guess I should. I should bring it back. But...

[ leo shifts to face him better, and takes his hand to give it a squeeze. ]
Do whatever you want with it. Not what you think you should, but what's going to make you happy. Okay?
