Shinjiro-san! Is it alright if I come by? Sensei has allowed me to leave the hospital and come see you and Bat-san! I bet he is as eager to start flying just as I am!
[Locked to Yuuko Ichihara | 50% Hackable]I've made my decision. When would be a proper time to come see you?

I have...
... many times I thought against this decision...
feeling like I was abandoning my Mistresses... even if most have long since been gone...
...
However, I don't think they'd be happy knowing I gave up a chance to find happiness because of them. They'd never ... wish that upon anyone, so I assume not myself as well. Remembering them will not bring them back... forgetting them will not erase any time I've spent with them. Things are as they were and...
Even if I arrive at other worlds and no one remembers me... I feel it's something I must do. I'm not a slave to the gods... so I should be allowed this choice.
My home isn't back where I came from anymore... it's with these people I've made a life of with here. I can't... imagine going back with a hole in my heart... never knowing what could have been.

Even if your heart forgets, your body will still remember. They will never be completely gone from your memory, not for as long as you live.

It feels... right, now. Although, I'll admit I'm a little scared...
I'm ready.

What is it, Yuuko-chan?

[That's probably a good thing, though.]

That makes sense...
[he wasn't in a hurry or anything to get rid of them]
I'll cherish them while I'm here.

Take this.

What do I need to do with it?

[A small pause later, she goes on.] That way, those memories will not be lost. If you can find the way to my world, you might retrieve them someday.
[Except by then, she probably wouldn't be the shop keeper anymore.]

I- I see...
[he last part causes his ear to twitch and he looks at her]
You would give them back?
What is Yuuko-chan's world like?

[And notice she's being careful not say *she* won't give it back. Cube should be prepared in case he finds someone else doing her job.]
My world is similar to what Discedo has once been; the place where I come from, specifically, has many buildings and a very tall tower as well. Magic is not widely acknowledged, but it is certainly there.

Where is it Yuuko-chan resides in that world...? I would like to visit, even if I do not strike a bargain for my memories again...
I still... wish to see you.

Still, she didn't have the heart to tell him that, much like she had hidden it from Watanuki himself. ]
I live in Tokyo, Japan. Cube-kun must be somewhat familiar with it, if you have heard of White Day and Hinamatsuri.

I lived a good eight years there serving...
I have a feeling it may be difficult to find people who live in similar places... because I am sure they're not all the same by now. However, perhaps they are. Worlds can be small or as big as one can imagine...
I won't give up, though. I'll seek out Yuuko-chan. I hope you still remember me, at least. If I visit during a festival or holiday, I'll try to cook something for you.

I'll certainly be looking forward to that-- to a time and place where we can meet again, outside of this world.
