... Thank you. [She swallows hard, like there's another lump in her throat, but this time it feels... heavier. More painful.] I couldn't do it without everyone. Ena. Mizuki. You.

[As she speaks, her voice hitches again at you. It's not that awkward, flustered tone from just a moment before - now, it's... something different. God, she wants to keep writing music, she wants to keep chasing her goal in this world with the others by her side, but...

"I told her. That I'll be quitting music, so she doesn't have to worry anymore." "I have to, don't I?"

... She's scared. It's like running forward, knowing that at any moment the ground can give out under you and you fall into a pit. How long do they have in this world? How long do they all have together, before that shadowy specter hanging over Mafuyu tries to tear them apart? How would she be able to recover from have all of those warm feelings that gather when they're all together just flicker and fade?

Almost painfully slowly, like someone reaching out to a skittish animal, Kanade leans her head to the side, until it's resting on Mafuyu's shoulder.]

I... I'm glad to have you by my side for all of this, Mafuyu.
