[... He's gonna reach down and give her a hug]

I thank you for the flowers.

[infreefall]

[ ...oh. she lets out a soft laugh. ]

She told you, huh?

[antaressnipe]

More that I was persistent and she set up the question in a way where I would not fail to find my answer.

[Chiron is a bully sometimes.]

[infreefall]

[ pfft ]

Was it really that important to find out? Maybe we just wanted to give you another reason to smile.

[antaressnipe]

It's precisely because it made me smile that I wanted to find the person who gave me such a reason.

[And of course it was Ochako. Of course]

... If you like, we can still dry and press the flowers to keep them alive for a while longer.

[infreefall]

[ that. does sound like chiron. ]

I do want to. Especially Shigeo-kun's - he really seemed to like them, once I told him what they meant.

[antaressnipe]

[Mm, Shigeo.

... his smile grows a little sad, but Chiron nods all the same]

We will press them for him so that he might have them during his return.

[infreefall]

Good. Thank you for helping me with it.

[ that's the least that he deserves, once they get him back. he's been through so much. ]

...Archer-san. Can I ask what you remembered?

[ he's forgotten so much, it's hard to keep track. ]

[antaressnipe]

... I can, but I do not think it will bring you any happiness, Ochako.

[his manner is sad and apologetic]

But I will share it if you wish to know.
