"It's been a while since you last came to visit,"

"Has it?"

"Five month is quite a long time, Gato,"

"Didn't think you keep track of time,"

"Well, it's strange when your friend promises to visit but doesn't. Isn't it?"

"Hehe... sorry, Kemono... didn't mean to scare you so badly,"

"Scare me? Gato, I thought you died, the loop is starting again, you said so yourself,"

"We have maybe... ten years before it can truly begin. I was only born last week,"

"But you never know, what if- wait, what do you mean you were only born last week? Why didn't you tell me!"

"I only learned about it myself yesterday, the eyes finally told me,"

"And you didn't think to tell me then!"

"Kemono, calm down! I was just allowed to leave this morning. Soon, I won't be able to come here at all and be bound to the tower until I'm freed by my smaller self,"

"..."

"Kemono, please don't look at me like that... I... I came here to ask on if you had any ideas on how to stop the loop this time,"

"Don't you have notes from your former selves that tell you what to do?"

"Yet here we are, still in this never ending cycle,"

"So you either don't have notes, don't even enough, or are too stupid to read them properly, you bean poll,"

"The notes only tell me so much, we still don't know why this is happening, much less what started all of this..."

"You said that if I'd pulled you up we won't be here, but I did, I did pull you up but we're still here, still in this cycle..."

"Kemono..."

"O... one of us is going to die... we weren't able to stop it before, and now one of us is going to-"

"Kemono, come here,"

"... Why are you hugging me?"

"You looked like you needed a hug... I'm pretty scared too, mi querida amiga, which is why I... I want to share my idea with you on how to stop it before it is too late,"

"And your idea is?"

"We... you never had good parental figures, from what you have told me. Kicked out when you were five and forced to live like us with only your wits to keep you alive... I found myself thinking one day, 'what would have happened if you have a mother who cared for you, properly'?"

"Stop beating around the bush, and tell me,"

"Alright, alright. What if, you were raised by someone who would raise you the right way? Or at least, help you open up and trust people more,"

"We saw what happens to people I put my trust in,"

"... You never trusted me, Kemono, there was a part of you the was afraid of me. Yet, even with that fear, you pulled me up... but the eyes found a way to make you hate me and leave me,"

"I never hated you, one thing lead to another, and now here we are,"

"Well, my point it: would you have liked to have had a loving family? And do you think things would have been diffrent if you did?"

"..."

"Kem-"

"Yes. Yes, I do believe I would have been some diffrent. Someone who was there to comfort me and show me what was actually right and wrong rather than leaving me with a gray mortal compass. But, who would take care of a child? No one cares for them anymore,"

"I'll find something,"

"Hehe, I know you will. May I interest you with a cup of tea?"

"Yes, yes you may."
