stop it, nanami-kun. you don't understand.

sometimes it's not enough to think that people will remember you, if you're even right about that in the first place, and it's not enough to know that you were somewhere for a while.

this isn't something that you can look at like it's some sort of fact or logical thing, because it's not. sometimes people need to know that they actually did something. that their life amounted to something and that people will actually care when they're gone.

i just watched my only friend die because i couldn't save him. i nearly killed everyone else trying. in a couple of days i'm going to die alone because someone thought that i did something unspeakable to someone else, and it's likely no one is going to care except when it comes to finding the culprit so they don't all get killed. everything i'd dedicated my life to is wrong, everything i tried to do was for nothing.

everything i do here matters while we're here, but eventually everyone goes home and won't remember that, either.

you can't just say "if we fade away" when your existence was wasted in the first place.
