Aw, man—I haven't been to an onsen in so long... Now I'm jealous.

Well, they do have a hot spring here, at least, even if it might not have quite the same feel as a Japanese onsen...

That's just a really nice bath. I mean, not that it's bad, but it's like you said. It just isn't the same...

Well, hopefully when you return home, you and your senpai can take a vacation to a proper onsen in the near future.

Yeah, maybe... I guess it comes down to if we can afford to take that much time off. A cupid's job is never ending.

Lots of people to match up, huh?

Haha, yeah... I'm sure you can imagine just how many people out there are landing in the right moment to fall for someone.

Mm... well, even if you don't get the chance while you're busy with work, then maybe once you're human again.

That's true... That'd be a least a year off if I work really hard, but maybe the wait will be worth it.

Like building up the anticipation, yeah? Treat yourself to a nice one, in that case.

You bet. Until then, I'll be jealous you get them whenever you want!

[he pauses.]

Well, you don't have to get too jealous. I don't live there anymore.

—You moved again?

Sort of. I had to leave, and then I... ended up here.

[died.]

Oh, I see... You don't have to move often, do you?

Not more than the average person... Recent circumstances have just been complicated.

Mm... Things sound like they're a little tough on your end.

[...]

They are, but I'll figure 'em out.

You will! Good luck, Uruha. It seems like we've both got a long road ahead of us.

... Yeah. Good luck to us both, then.

[ Since w4 is upon us I'm putting a neat little bow on this one, we can say they made it to the boardwalk and had a nice late dinner and stuff. ]
