probably forever homeless

I appreciate the enthusiasm, but you do still have a couple routes to go before you really commit to where I'm coming from. I gotta say, it's... interesting, seeing how things could turn out for me in so many different ways. Lots of ups and downs, huh?

...Just avoid Kenji at all costs. I really don't want to deal with that in my future any more than I have to.

'You really don't remember even one thing from last summer?' Of course you wouldn't. I told you it was a different Hiichan...

[So many mixed emotions here. So many. She can't sign all of these feels. But she's trying.]

[Hiichan really feels bad about this.He said he really wouldn't want to forget spending the summer with you.]

[White lie, or at least reading into what he said - possibly in error. Not exactly the way he phrased it, is it, Misha?]

The last summer I remember is the one before I even met you guys... it's possible I lost my memory, I guess?

But I'm not making any of this up, and I'm not trying to prank anyone here. Swear to God.

[Serious face. So serious, it hurts.]

[His last summer was before his heart attack, Shiichan~. That's what he's telling us. He swears.]

"I know you wouldn't lie to Shiichan. I'm trying to tell her that."

[He wouldn't lie to you. That's just not like our Hiichan.]

*Don't mind Shizune. She's just trying to keep the obvious devastation from her face. Not only can she not talk to Hisao anymore, but he doesn't remember anything they shared? She signs quickly and tersely.

'Oh.'*

[Not to make you obsolete or anything, Misha, but he doesn't really need to be able to read hands to understand that sign. Or the look on her face. He didn't even do anything, but yeah, feeling like a complete heel over here.]

Sorry.
