(It's fine, Tsurumaru doesn't need to sleep maybe.

But he nods in acknowledgement,)

You've had a difficult life. I'm sorry it couldn't be easier, Bertolt-kun.

[perspire]

It would be nice, but that's just what I was born into.

[cranelike]

What was it like?

[perspire]

... What exactly?

[cranelike]

If there was one thing you would want others to know or understand for you, what would it be?

[perspire]

... That's hard to say. Even after everything, I would've likely made the same choice.

(He smiles lightly at Bertolt, a little sad,)

If I were in your position, I think I would, too.

I spoke to Kotetsu earlier so I won't make you repeat your story. But I want to ask... do you think the promise was real?
