[I think I'd really go crazy if you weren't here, Hinata thinks but doesn't say. It feels heavy to say, and he doesn't want to make Komaeda feel that heaviness. If anything, he wonders more at himself.]

Really different. But I can barely even remember how it felt back then.

[Being with Komaeda has become the normal thing. Returning to that time... would be strange.] I... it's strange, Nagito. Back then, when this would've happened, I would've felt panicked. That's the right reaction, right?

But I just feel empty right now.

[So many times... this has happened. So many. Hinata's not kind enough to himself to forgive his own feelings on this, that he's been wrung of his shock by this happening time and time again.]
