So Mun...

This place you're taking me. It sounds like a welcome walk in the park compared to where I was. But I still don't understand why. I was getting closer. Closer to Claudia, to finding out the truth. So why the interruption? What's so important in Mayfield?

... Oh. HE'S gonna be there. Just great. Looks like my life's gonna become a dumb sitcom here for awhile. Yanno, both you and that other mun have a terrible sense of humor. Look at me not laughing.

Don't give me cause to and I won't. How's that?

[lettertomyfutureself]

Works for me...

[closerthanheaven]

[He smiles for once and it almost appears genuine. Almost.] A shame you couldn't finish what you started before being put here.

[lettertomyfutureself]

I don't intend to stick around.

[closerthanheaven]

From everything I've been hearing, that's not up to you.

[lettertomyfutureself]

I don't intend to let something like that stop me.

[closerthanheaven]

Unlike the Otherworld, your will or memories of your past self won't change the world around you. There's no way out. Hopeless, isn't it?

[lettertomyfutureself]

I already told you I don't intend to be stopped. I'll find a way out. I have to find Claudia.

[closerthanheaven]

At least you still have that...driving force. In the end, though, it doesn't matter. How many times will you fail before you give up? [Was it a rhetorical question or was he actually expecting a response? You can never tell with him.]

[lettertomyfutureself]

You should know by now that I'm not a giving up kinda girl.

[closerthanheaven]

[Well, that he did know.]

I suppose if Harry dying didn't destroy your will, nothing can. I'll concede that. [It's almost a grudging admittance.]

[lettertomyfutureself]

... I think we could use a subject change.

[closerthanheaven]

[He smirks.]

Looks like I'm going to be seen as your father. How's that for a subject change?

[lettertomyfutureself]

Creepy, to be honest.

[closerthanheaven]

That...seems to be your general response for anything involving me. I'm hurt. [He feigns disappointment and exaggerates drooping his shoulders.]

[lettertomyfutureself]

Yep. Creepy. That's you in a nutshell right there.

[closerthanheaven]

You'll learn to like me. You have to, if you want to stay sane.

[lettertomyfutureself]

Yeah, we'll see about that.

[closerthanheaven]

I think we've talked enough. You already seem to know what to do. [He turns to walk away, then stops and turns back.] You know you'll be the same as everyone else, don't you?

[lettertomyfutureself]

Yeah, whatever, just go.

[closerthanheaven]

Goodbye...but only for now~ [He smirks at her before finally going away.]
