the truth is, everyone wishes to be saved.

The execution has come and passed with the death of two more Agents. However time moves on without cease and so must the living. There are no celebrations, only the silence that grows heavier and heavier with every day and the feeling that something is pleased with what it has done.

There are two more days before the new week arrives: what will you do?

You should not be sorry. In the first place, I chose this path of my own will. Perhaps I did not know the precise details, but I was suspicious. I knew there would be a price. Still, it means that for me, a person's wish is more precious than anything else.

And of course, as a magical girl, I've seen many people's wishes. They come in quite a wide variety, actually. I know of magical girls that wished for the power to protect what is precious to them. I know magical girls who wished that they could save anyone in trouble. There are even magical girls who wish for vengeance...

But do you know what the wish of some of the most powerful magical girls are? The wish to survive. There is inherently wrong with merely trying to live, Doctor.

[ there's another long silence that follows once nanaka has finished what she wanted to say. certainly, the concept of magical girls is something that he knows of from...well...anime, but speaking to one is something completely different.

it's a lot more painful, but also insightful, in a way.

there's nothing inherently wrong with merely trying to live.

he breathes out a sigh, nodding towards nanaka with a small, but shaky smile. ]

I see. I see. So that's how it is. I think I'm beginning to understand now...we can't lose that wish to live.

Correct. Especially in a situation like this, it is important to remember. This place is not just trying to kill us physically, after all. No matter what, we cannot afford to give up on hope in this situation.
