Canon is Sword Art Online

[blackwyrm]

A game without any permanent death, eh? Count me in.

...Still, don't bring Asuna into this. No, your rants doesn't mean a thing for me. She's safe on her own.

[ Noooooo, no. Nope nope nope. Don't send her here. Not here. It'd be a lie to say she didn't want to talk to him but at the same time she... didn't want to cause him trouble. He already did more than enough for her. So, please, don't make her do this.

Asuna? Oh, did he manage to make friends after? That relieves her to hear, actually.

But, maybe, if she's quiet he won't... really notice her even if this gets sent. Mun, why must you do this. ]

[Sadly, Kirito's Searching skill is level 1000 and his Tracking is level 963 already at his canon point right here. He would soon notice the-]

[BRB DRAINED.]

[ALL THE COLOR OF HIS FACE, I MEAN.]

...No.

[reindear]

[ Oh.

She should've known. Even when she tried to hide the first time, Kirito was the one who found her.

The most automatic thought at that reaction is to at least try and say something but- ]

... Ki- [ She stops herself. She's hesitating since... she doesn't know what would be okay to say or rather she doesn't know if she should. ]

[Well, there goes his personal calmness. Usually, he'll communicate things like this out with a slower and more peaceful pace.]

[But not on this one. He's not able to.]

Sachi.

[There, he succeeded in calling her name, albeit it's nothing more than a silent, tortured whisper.]

[reindear]

[ In her mind, that makes you far braver than she is. No, saying she's biased doesn't count.

She's quiet for a bit before mustering up some courage to speak- ]

... Ah, sorry, I'm- I'm not doing too well on thinking of what to say...

[blackwyrm]

[Not biased is too mainstream. So we'll leave it at that.]

Don't apologize. [A beat, as the depression got into him.] Just don't.

[It was never your fault to begin with..]

...

[ "This is not caused by anyone, the problem lies with me."

She... really meant everything she said. ]

[reindear]

[ She should leave but... She also thinks that would hurt him even more. Now that he's seen her.

So, would saying her honest feelings be better? ]

... I'm- ... I'm really glad I got to see you again, Kirito. [ She feels that this is really selfish... If there's anything she could do for him that wouldn't hurt him then she wishes she could know. ]

[blackwyrm]

[What should he say here? Something like 'Me as well'? No... That will do nothing but strains both of them further. If Kirito do sputter that line, it's nothing more than a blatant lies that he actually feels no guilt.]

[Still... That's the only thing that could mend all of this cracky relationship as well.]

Aaah. [He smiles a little, albeit it's pretty obvious that he forces his lips so.] Same here, Sachi. I... am glad to be able to see you again in this realm.
