[ Doumeki takes another pause. This one goes on for a bit longer, but the thought of leaving and coming back, or leaving at all, is one he takes seriously. ]
[ King Records said it's not MTC's turn to use the Xbox. ]
Oh.
[ That's the first he's heard of someone disappearing like that, he didn't even realize that was a possibility... ]
I see.
[ Well, that means he can't ask him about what forgetting stuff is like... Though he's already led the conversation here, so he should probably keep it going. ]
I am worried about what will happen, if I leave and forget.
I do not think anyone forgets. Jyuto believes it's more likely we're from parallel versions of each others' worlds. It makes more sense than no one realizing we are gone because an entire world's time has been frozen while we are here.
[ Or he's just agreeing because it's Jyuto and he doesn't like the idea of forgetting. There's really no evidence of any theory being accurate, so he's selecting the one that he likes best. ]
[ Doumeki pauses. Parallel dimensions and that kind of thing go way over his head, but he does like the thought of not forgetting. If he and Yashiro could go home and remember... that would be much better than the alternative. ]
I would prefer if that were the case.
[ Starting back at 0 would be too much... He couldn't bear it, forgetting all of this. Maybe he'll start believing this theory too. ]
[ Doumeki hums in agreement. He likes this theory, and he can certainly understand wanting to believe something because someone close to you thinks so. ]
Staying here is also not a bad option. I would not mind it.
[ It was more pool for the sake of doing something. In truth, Riou is happy to just enjoy Doumeki's company and their conversation, limited as it is at times. He takes another swig of beer, nodding in agreement. ]
[ Doumeki nods, glad they're in agreement. Of course, this means they're going to just enjoy some more amicable silence now that they're on the same page.
It's fine that they're done with their game, anyway. Doumeki is happy to order another round of beers for them, as long as Riou doesn't mind him paying. ]

Did you forget, while you were gone?
no subject
I don't remember leaving. I had disappeared in the middle of something with Samatoki and then woke up in the wilderness again.

Jyuto believes it is true, so it is true. There is no evidence otherwise.
[ No more than any other theory anyway. ]

[ So much for playing pool, it's fine... ]
no subject
I would like that, too.
