Eater-san?

[harpbeat]

Re-ta-su.

I... I really don't want to hurt or upset anybody or get in their way. Still. But what you said earlier about me not owing anybody anything just to make their lives easier, um... How can I still try to make people happy?

[harpbeat]

Respect yourself first. Then do that.

[aquaticrush]

...It would be nice if I were happy too.

[harpbeat]

You can be happy.

[aquaticrush]

I've just always put aside my own chances of being happy to be useful to other people. It's important to me that I make others happy, and I thought that if I did that, maybe one day something good would happen to me, but that they were more important.

[harpbeat]

That kind of thinking won't get you anywhere.

[aquaticrush]

I suppose.

[harpbeat]

You get me?

[aquaticrush]

I want to like myself. It's just that it's difficult.

[harpbeat]

Takes practice, like everything.

[aquaticrush]

I'll try.

[harpbeat]

Good, good.

[Shoulder pat.]

[aquaticrush]

*shrinks back* Um.

[harpbeat]

No touchy?

[aquaticrush]

I'm sorry! I, I mean, you can if you want to-- um. Right. Um.

[harpbeat]

Got it. No touchy.

[aquaticrush]

Um. Okay. *Still feels a little guilty.* Are you happy...?

[harpbeat]

I'm fine. You?

[aquaticrush]

I-I'm okay.

[harpbeat]

Good! Progress.

[aquaticrush]

*bites her lip and shrinks back* Okay.
