Me, neither. [ sighs. ] But after projecting thoughts and feelings out into the ether, why not memories? It tracks for this stupid place.

I guess if it was going to happen, it might as well be now instead of our first week here.

[ imagine memsharing extremely personal memories to someone you've known three days ]

[ :NYEH: ]

Thank god for that. It's bad enough they're being put out there at all, but to total strangers? No thank you.

I know. It would be so awkward to have to get to know people afterwards as well, I think.

I think if I saw some of those memories before knowing the people, I just wouldn't even try to get to know them.

[ he is too judgmental and would immediately write them off ]

People would have done that to me.

[ HE JUST ADMITS IT ]

You are way too accepting of that.

... I have to be. I know how I come across to others once they learn more about me, there is no way around that.

You really wouldn't even try to do something about it...?

[ can't relate? kazuki thought so hard about how to act in order to be liked and accepted by people back home? this sounds like a nightmare to him. ]

Well, what can I do? Some people are willing to try to understand, while others will jump to conclusions and refuse to budge from them.

I don't know, maybe prove them wrong somehow? You don't have to just take it.

I am fine with it. If I spent every time trying to prove them wrong, that would be time I could have spent doing something else.

...I don't think I can understand that. But if it suits you, then fine, I guess.

That's fine. It's better for you to not follow my example, anyway. This is simply easier for me, considering I tend to outlive most people that I know. It would get tiring if I have to keep doing it for hundreds and hundreds of years, you know?
