[ real talk do any of us have good memories, and also calibration isn't exactly a happy holiday anyway ]

Just a small, quiet sort of thing. I think that'd suit all of us well enough.

[forgottenmercy]

What, ah, would you like me to help with, for it...?

[softlyfalling]

Mm... where do you think would be a good place for it, actually?

[forgottenmercy]

Maybe in, ah, the greenhouse...? Or the, ah, teahouse...

[softlyfalling]

Oh, either of those would be lovely...

...maybe the greenhouse? It's liable to be a little more private, I think.

[forgottenmercy]

It, ah, most likely would be, yes...

[softlyfalling]

And it affords some extra little spaces, too, so I think it'd suit very nicely.

...hard to believe it's been three winters here.

[forgottenmercy]

It, ah, really is hard to believe, sometimes...

[softlyfalling]

And yet, it seems like a really long time, too. I don't think the me who arrived then could have imagined the life I lead now. What about you, do you think?

[forgottenmercy]

Ah, maybe...I'm not really certain, though...

[softlyfalling]

...if there's anything I can do to help you in living a life you're satisfied with, you know—I'd help in a heartbeat.

[forgottenmercy]

I, ah, know you would. Please don't, ah, worry...I am content.

[softlyfalling]

If you're sure. I know you don't ask for much.

[forgottenmercy]

I am, ah, certain...

[softlyfalling]

I'll stop hassling you about it, then.

...things aren't so bad now, are they.

[forgottenmercy]

They, ah, are not, no...

[softlyfalling]

Well. Here's to a turn of the seasons even better yet still.

[forgottenmercy]

Hopefully it, ah, turns out, such...

[softlyfalling]

For once—I'm starting to hope for it.

[forgottenmercy]

I'm, ah, glad...
