Dianna breathes a sigh of joy once back at the station. We make our way to Ueno once Miharu gets off work. Mainly to go to the zoo and national museum there. The only issue is that we start in the afternoon, which means we have to rush. Dianna seems satisfied, though. At the same time, this is likely to be her final experience in the modern day.

Silence ensues as we wait for the train to arrive.

Sunday night finally rears its head. Tonight marks the end of the final round of Divine Selection. Myself, Miharu, and Dianna are all at Lion House. We're sitting at the usual table.

She giggles at first and holds a smile.

I notice a certain cat limping toward us, looking much thinner than usual. It must have realized what's about to happen. I make my way over to it and pick it up, placing it under the table. Yep, it's the ideal spot for Lethe to sit.

Dianna leans down and pets it. A certain tenderness coats her expression as she does so. One Naomi has never shown before. I can only imagine that Dianna would pet Leo like this when she were alive.

And thus commenced the curtain call on my fate.

Midnight is mere moments away. Miharu and Dianna agreed to stay with me tonight. Lethe gets to join us too, of course. All so we can see each other again in the morning.

She makes the same tender expression from before. We didn't spend much time together, but I've grown incredibly fond of her. Perhaps because she's in Naomi's body. Parting ways hurts, but I'll never forget her.

Miharu's statement makes me see her in a whole different light. I give her a tiny nod after basking in the radiance of her smile for a moment.

I see myself as something of an unstable existence. To the point where I'm worried I might just disappear altogether if I'm not with someone. But... even so... I want to live. I know I'm not alone. That's why I want to live. I want to keep on living. Keep on experiencing precious moments in my daily life, together with those I know.

Lethe lets out a meek groan. It's stretching its front legs in the air despite its current state.

Miharu grabs my hand before I can answer. I grab Naomi's in turn, and she in turn grabs Miharu's.

We lie down and form a circle before closing our eyes.

We don't need to do anything fancy or cool.
All we have to do is believe.
Sleep eventually takes us, our hands still joined.
