By now, the bus is pretty much full. Like twenty more got rejected. Someone sat on Sana. Another very handsome guy, a host of some high-brand club, had just failed picking up a perky, dorky looking girl with glasses- and that was evidence enough. Something here is not working. Or, something about people has never worked well to begin with. You tell Sana to go against the Rumor and confront the Uwasa to put an end to this, but she shakes her head.
λ Sana: (It's ok, Kaname-san. I know that you are worried, but please, believe in me a little longer.)
She’s refusing a Goddess’s command so easily that it stings… even though you knew this was coming. After all, there’s a lot of people in here, and that could spell a lot of collateral damage. For some, principles are something very real. Like Uwasas, they can’t go against them. But, she would also have a rational reason going for her; Sana already stepped into the bus, so who knows what the Uwasa could do with her heart.
Sana stands; the Pink Kyubey gets smashed against the low ceiling above the seas.
λ Sana: Oh, no! (I’m sorry!)
Luckily, Kyubeys are very elastic, so the camera in this unit still works. You ask Sana what she’s planning.
λ Sana: (I’m going to.. press the stop button.)
The big you grabs your big pink head; you ask Sana what makes her feel so confident after watching everyone else fail. Then, you remember. You remember, but you still tell her that even succeeding won’t destroy the Rumor.
λ Sana: (I know. I… failed. But, I’m not worried. I’m… a bit happy, to be honest. Sorry.)
…You know what she’s talking about. The Law of Cycles has become too much of a hectic place for someone as quiet as her. It can be too messy, too loud for someone who likes to make tea, bake crackers, and think up moral messages for picture books. Of course, that’s not all. That’s not all at all. Sana walks up to the exit door and presses that red stop button. And then it hits you. When you realize the crowd that just rushed out of the Law of Cycles, that climbed all over you to get a good spot to watch like you did with Sana, it hits you- the absolutely insane bullshit that could be about to happen. The whispers all around you flood your mind, the questions about physics and the nature of magic and reality- but not the answers.
The bus moves.
It turns a corner, in reverse.
But…
...where could it even take her?!
