Ah... April. [He tries to put on a smile, but it's clearly fake.]

[technologic]

[She frowns and goes over to sit next to him.]

What happened?

Action

[alephbet]

Someone came and talked about my world. Lucifer, Hiroko, the people I failed.

[technologic]

[Yeah, he's getting a hug.] You didn't fail anyone... And they just knew about Hiroko and Lucifer?

[alephbet]

They seemed to know everything. [Hug.]

[technologic]

[Back rub, back rub.] ... Who were they?

[alephbet]

Patrick Dawn. That was his name.

[technologic]

I see... [April hrms to herself as she rests her chin on his shoulder.]

... You didn't fail anyone. We're gonna get our worlds back to the way they were and get back home to everyone.

[alephbet]

How do we know that? What if we don't...?

[technologic]

Then we keep trying until we do find a way... [She doesn't want to think about what'll happen if they can't restore their worlds.]

... And if we are able to be brought here, then maybe we can bring in people from our world and live here, outside the tower... In the end, we'll think of someway to save the people back home.

[alephbet]

...thank you, April. [He sighs and leans his head against hers.]

[technologic]

[April hums and rubs his back gently.] ... It's nothing. I believe you'll be able to save everyone, so...

[alephbet]

I have to. Or else I'm not a Messiah.

[technologic]

You're more than a Messiah, y'know... [Sigh, as she cuddles close.] ... But you can do it. We all can.

[alephbet]

I hope so. ...Yeah, we can do it.

[technologic]

Mmhm, we can. This'll all work out in the end, I'm sure of it. [April: A constant stream of optimism.]

[alephbet]

Thank you. For reminding me. I forgot for a moment.

[technologic]

Eh? Y-you don't need to thank me, I'm just h-happy I was able to help...

... Um, was I-I able to help?

[alephbet]

Of course. I feel a lot better.

[technologic]

Ah, t-that's good! [She pulls away a bit to give him a smile.] Though I-I probably wouldn't be a good fiancee i-if I couldn't help you w-when you needed it.

[alephbet]

Almost a wife now, even. [It sounds amazing to him.]

[technologic]

Y-yeah... [Gulp as she turns bright red. It still hasn't sunk in that she'll be a wife soon.] ... I-I-I-I just hope I-I'm a good w-wife.

[alephbet]

You will be. I know that much.

[He's blushing too, but smiling.]

[technologic]

Th-Thank you... A-and I know you'll be a good h-h-husband.

[alephbet]

I'd love to be.
