Not when the stakes are this high.

's a different thing when it feels this heavy.

[greatdeduction]

[He tilts his head, considering.]

If that's all you have left, though....risks must be taken.

[perfectdistance]

It's find a way forward or get trapped, ain't it? We'll do what we can tomorrow.

[greatdeduction]

...

[He sighs.]

If everything succeeds...do you think we'll be able to go back home?

[perfectdistance]

Don't ya believe in your partner?

[greatdeduction]

I...

[He's actually surprised?]

O-Of course I do. One just...has to consider the possibilities...

[He's more of a realist than he makes himself to be!!]

[perfectdistance]

[West with a slightly Eastern filling.]

I think... if everythin' works out, we'll be able to get home.

Or maybe that's wishful thinkin' on my part.

[greatdeduction]

[Sometimes you are just a Matroyshka doll!]

...No, I don't think that's wishful thinking. That's our goal.

That's something I want to believe in.

[perfectdistance]

If ya wanna believe in it, then put your faith there.

[It's... very strange to be the one trying to give a pep talk. It does not suit him.]

[greatdeduction]

...

I suppose that...yes. [And he smiles a little himself.] I shall do that. Thank you, Nero.

[perfectdistance]

You're welcome...?

[greatdeduction]

Ahaha.

[And a wider smile.]

It's always nice to talk to you, my dear friend.

[perfectdistance]

[That does draw out a little smile out of him.]

Yeah. You too, Sholmes.

[greatdeduction]

[He almost looks a little bashful.]

Ahaha. Well, I do hope that if this all ends as planned, you can show me your world! I shan't take no for an answer! I'll simply visit!

[perfectdistance]

[It's almost cute.]

Might have to wait a lil while for everythin' to get settled, but after that sure.
