I know that isn't. You might think that you're right and I'm wrong, but there's no way that I'd be able to be strong enough for that. I'd be all alone again.
[And now it's Raina's turn to have to wait for a response, because... ah.
"Again."
...]
Let me put it this way: I'm going to help other people where I'm able. But I'm also going to do absolutely everything in my power to stay around so that I can continue to do that.
I'm not going to leave you behind if I have any say in it. Okay?
I suppose that's the best I can ask for. I wouldn't be able to stop you from helping people out, even if those ways might be ones that I might not like.
Anyway, let me go back to the first thing you originally said. You suddenly woke up with a scar from your past life? Do you remember how you got it or are we going "it is a mystery" here?
I don't think YouTube lets you upload anything quite that long.
Yeah, I thought the same thing, but Elliot mentioned that maybe it's better if I don't remember. Whatever caused this must have been traumatic, because, uh, it definitely is not nice-looking. So maybe it's better that I'm not having to relive that.
[Of course he understands. His past self was so many things he can only dream of being... accomplished, a leader. Happy.]
Yeah. I know some people refer to their past selves like they're completely separate people, but... seems kind of hard to do that when you share everything.
Still, what's past is past and what's here is here. I know that.
A plant unleashing some kind of weird desires is more than a little weird... but then again, I can't exactly judge considering what I've got in my memories.

You're stronger than you think you are.

I won't forgive you if you leave me behind. Ever.
no subject
And that's all right. I wouldn't want you to forgive me if I did that to you.

no subject
I asked my friends, and Elliot remembers past me having this scar, too, but he said even past me didn't know how he got it.
Which is good, I guess? Nice to know past me didn't die from getting impaled or something, but it's still a bit frustrating.
no subject
I don't know, not knowing how you got a scar is still concerning?
no subject
Yeah, I thought the same thing, but Elliot mentioned that maybe it's better if I don't remember. Whatever caused this must have been traumatic, because, uh, it definitely is not nice-looking. So maybe it's better that I'm not having to relive that.
no subject
Maybe it's better, but can we even control what we remember to begin with?
no subject
Not that I know of. But I meant that it's probably better for past me, in this case. Current me just has to live with it.
no subject
Well, as long as you understand that, Rean...
no subject
Mm? Understand what, exactly? Sorry, I'm not really following.

Still, what's past is past and what's here is here. I know that.
no subject
Speaking of that, though... I remembered something. Just now.
no subject
no subject
I was worried about him.
Something about... something called Heartseed liberating his weird desires and that he might actually die because of them?
no subject
[Still. Not exactly hard to figure out what triggered THAT.]
...Guess I should probably say I'm sorry for making your past life's worries follow you here, though.
no subject
I should also mention that I did find out a few things about my past life recently that wasn't related to that memory.
no subject
Like what?
no subject
Well, the name I remember in another memory that I had a different name... oh, and apparently I was Japanese in my past life.
no subject
Well, that confirms the two of us weren't from the same worlds originally, then. The country I was from isn't even a country that exists on Earth.
What was the other you's name? Out of curiosity.
no subject
Yeah. It's kind of disappointing, I guess. I'm curious as to where in Japan, but that's something I'll have to find out later.
Well, I don't remember my full name, but the others seemed to call me 'Inaba'.
no subject
Inaba? Heh. It's cute!
