[is in the process of cleaning up all of his stuff]

What are you doing?

[maybe you're just...cleaning :x]

. . . Packing.

That's what it looked like but I hoped maybe...did you get a letter?

Yes. A warning that we had to leave.

A--warning? Why?

[shakes his head]

I don't know, but either we leave of our own free will, or this place will force us out.

...you and Yuki-chan both?

Yes.

I see...at least you can go together.

[. . . nods]

Do you want me to say anything to Tsukumo?

Oh...tell him I miss him but I'm doing all right?

I will.

Thank you. I know I don't have to ask you to take care of Yuki-chan, but take care of yourself too.

[rests a hand on her head]

We'll be fine.

[d-dere. this smile is still a little shaky, but genuine]

I'm glad.

Mm.

We'll follow as soon as we can.

Ah. I know Yuki will worry, but we'll do our best, too.
