"Well, it wasn't directly her doing it. I. . ._{I wanted to give her a present}. . ." Hitari gets very quiet. "_{She was so happy.}"

"Their wishes were granted," Shiawase says firmly. "There was nothing more that they wanted than for someone to be out of their way."

Rin looks Hitari. "That.... is possibly both the weirdest and the sweetest thing I've ever heard."

"And that response is the calmest I've ever heard," Hitari replies. "Look, I was. . .a very, very different person then. . ."

"Heh. I can tell." Rin laughs a little. "Otherwise I'd be very dead by now."

Hitari doesn't smile. "If I still thought and acted like that, you'd be worse than dead."

Rin turns kinda pale. He looks at Felix up in the tree. "Ah. Well. We should probably head back now. I think I can find the way..... no use hanging around in the forest....."

"Yeah, that. . .sounds like a good idea," Hitari says, slowly getting to his feet. "I should be able to walk fine now. . ."

He glances up at the canopy. "Did. . .did Itami do anything, by the way?"

"I don't.... think so," Rin frowns. "He had me pinned to the tree for awhile.... was grabbing at my throat.... but you intervened pretty quickly."

"Oh, thank goodness," Hitari whispers to himself.

"I can only imagine two things. . .that he would. . .do," he says, louder. "Neither are very good. . ."

He shakes his head. "All that matters is the fact that you're. . .perfectly fine."

Up high, high above, Itami stands on a branch, looking down at them silently. That kid has no idea what he's made friends with.
