[Souji is at home and it's too quiet. He ends up talking to Saizou, his pig, for company a lot lately and this time, Saizou steps on the journal as he's talking, picking up bits and pieces of their one-sided conversation.]

--nder...why...--that some ......--ile others go, Saizou?

[The pig grunts and Souji laughs softly, sounding tired and worn.]

Mm...yes, I suppose we'll never know.....--haps....world returns.....--work still left to complete; and leaves ...... --no longer necessary.

[He's quiet for a moment and then lets out a heavy sigh, dismissing his own thoughts.]

No, that's silly. ....--ing me the jour--....

[The microphone picks up the muffled bumps and thumps as Saizou bites the journal and brings it over for Souji. He presses the on button again, unaware that it was already recording. When he addresses everyone, he's much chipper like he always, no trace of his earlier stress.]

I learned a new game so I have a question for everyone~

Would you rather eat nothing but your favorite food forever or never eat your favorite food again?

Also, it has been quite awhile, but anyone who knew my other self, Hijikata-san or Chizuru-chan; they've all returned to their homes.

You speak of them more as friends than enemies, Smoker-san.

[Even if he knows that will anger the man more likely than not, he can't help but say it. It isn't right that those who left went back to die. Ayumu was the same way. ...In the end, all of them were.]

I'm sorry. That you have lost them.

Don't be. It should be this way. Probably.

They weren't friends, but I'll admit, they were not as much enemies as they should have been. And since that would probably have gotten me killed for treason, maybe I should be glad that there's no reason to keep thinking about it.
