[Hers also goes into the water but she's not paying all that much attention to it.]

It's not like we're in any rush on a Monday.

[unsweeten]

Mm, I guess that's true.

[ watching his lure just bobbing around out there... ]

Kinda weird having all this free time, isn't it?

[factoring]

I'm so used to being busy... I'm figuring out what to do with the rest of the week.

[unsweeten]

[ nods ]

I'm honestly pretty bad at relaxing or whatever. Though I think it's also just hard to relax in this situation anyway, no matter how much time there is...

[factoring]

With all the rules of the game hanging over us? Yes, that does make it more difficult... I've just considered it background stress.

[unsweeten]

...Yeah, I guess that's probably easy for you.

[factoring]

When the world is already on the brink of destruction, it's hard to get any more stressed.

[unsweeten]

...Not exactly what I meant, but... yeah, I guess that's fair too.

[ moves his fishing pole around a little to wiggle the lure... ]

[factoring]

Oh... How did you mean it?

[ She's just holding hers and not paying attention. ]

[unsweeten]

I mean, world destruction or not, your like, baseline stress level back during that weird emotion sharing week didn't feel like much of anything... and you don't have to worry about people ganging up on you for stuff someone else wanted them to think you did.

[factoring]

Mm... That's just how I am. I know it's a bit unusual.

[ Can't change what you are. ]

The things I've been accused of are things I've really done. I can't imagine your position was a good one.

[unsweeten]

I wish it was past tense.

[factoring]

Oh... So it's still happening?

[unsweeten]

I mean, we never proved who it really was, so yeah, probably.

[factoring]

I'm afraid this is one area that I have little advice for. Fukuzawa put his trust in you and I'm inclined to trust his judgement.

[unsweeten]

Thanks...

[ sighs. ]

I wish everyone else would do that too.

[factoring]

[ She looks out into the water and wiggles her line. ]

The only thing to do is move forward with what happened. We can't turn back the clock, no matter how much we might want to.
