They can both be pretty terrible. I've seen old soldiers turn violent because of the constant ache of their injuries.
[ hm, that's kind of a bummer. ]
But I hope you're letting yourself be cared for, Shinobu.

I have a few years before I become old, and fortunately, magical healing takes care of most of those kinds of aches.

In some ways, I feel like I have been cared for to a great degree. The last time I cried that much was.... years ago.

[ .... ]
No, I wouldn't say so. The reason I was crying... not much could heal that.

... I'm sorry to hear that.
Do you... want to talk about it?

[ she's silent for a moment. ]
... Not now. I'm sorry. You can call it one of the things I would never willingly choose to do.

[ he doesn't seem too surprised ]
It's alright. Sometimes discussing it isn't what's best. I just hope your pain eases.

That's sweet of you, Claude-san.
[ she smiles. ]
It's just a little hard to bring it up to the surface again. With time, it'll get better.

[ he smiles back, taking a seat
... sort of. he floats in a sitting position. ]
Maybe one day these won't be a concern at all.

[ she looks at his floating. ]
That would be a dream come true. Do you have to eat or sleep, if you're incorporeal like that?

I don't. It's very disorienting, frankly. But I can't complain.

We'll still need to find a way to get you completely back, but it is good to see you again, even if it's in this form. At least this way you can't be bullied too much.

Not for lack of trying...
[ duck to the face ]
I hate to be a pessimist, but it does feel a little melancholy being here. With the rest of them so far away.

Perhaps you deserve some of it.
[ she's a little mean. ]
I know where you're coming from, but... I'd like to have a little hope. The distance has to close eventually.
