Summary
All the things we talk about when we try to talk about love.

"Everything I've ever let go of has claw marks on it" - David Foster Wallace, Infinite Jest

Summary
No one knows that the future is always in the present, just beside the past.
"Trying not to think about how her heart feels as if it is about to beat right out of her chest, Shizune splashes water onto her face. She has the tap turned all the way to cold, but it’s still only lukewarm. Her eyelashes feel stuck together, but eventually, Shizune stops, looking at herself in the mirror.
“You’re on drugs,” she says, “you’re on drugs, and you just have to ride it out.”

Summary
How it all went up in flames.
“I woke up sad, and wanted to feel even sadder by listening to sad music, because you are you and I am me and I don’t know how we could ever be anyone else to each other.” Kurenai runs her pointer along his scar. Raidou closes his eyes. He has thought of this question a million times, but she phrased it with a clarity he has not yet attained."
