...I don't know.

[ It's as if that's the only phrase Minato knows. But it's true. He doesn't know. He doesn't know if there are things that he wants to do. Everyone keeps saying that: use this time to do the things you wanted to do, the things you never got the chance to do. Surely, he must have a little sheet of paper with all the things he wanted to accomplish scrawled on it? Instead, the paper is blank -- a stark white: empty.

Maybe that's why he was able to singlehandedly carry the weight from everyone else's lives. Others' desires became his own. He'd discovered meaning in helping all of them, and in return, growing closer with them. But if asked whether there was anything he desired? Nothing.

Thanatos remains at Minato's side. The Persona continues to observe, as though it were assessing Scott's responses to Minato's truths. ]


I didn't think I would make it this far.

[ Shuffled from relative to relative, household to household, he'd learned to live as a shadow: silent, minimizing one's presence as much as possible. ]

I don't know that I can.
