Anonymous text after the Taurus event

[No way is he showing his face to Hinoto-Ri: not now, not soon. Time heals all wounds, and time is exactly what he needs to work through the aftermath of the event.]

The government announcement and star sign "sickness" —

Will this happen to us a lot? Is this just how it works here? What can we do to... stop it?

...

I'm sorry.

Hahaha...! Hah... ahh. [Nobody has to see him to hear the awkward strain in that laughter.] That too. Make friends or die when there's... an enemy.

[He gets it, really, but when aliens are invading? When ALIENS. Are INVADING! And he thought being dead was surreal. This is really pushing his limits, but at least someone is having fun with this.]

Kinda dangerous. Demons sound like the kind of people that are always dangerous...

[Well way to make him feel bad about making you feel awkward, dude!!] Yeah... it's not so bad-- we all actually got along pretty well, bad situation regardless. I guess that was just luck.

And it was actually thanks to demons that we were able to protect ourselves. I guess it just depends on which ones and how you use 'em..

Ahh, you're very casual about this... [It's not so bad, Daichi sounds like he would be great to hang out with. Very low-tension, which Otonashi doesn't often get!]

Eh? What do you mean? There are different... kinds of demon? I thought they were... fictional, but all about the same. [Pause, and then he quickly speaks up again.] Oh, you don't have to answer that if I'm pushing too much.

Trust me, I think it's kind of weird how used to all this weird stuff I am by now... [Come to him a day before the Invasion and it would've been a muuuch different story.]

Nah, it's not a big deal. It's just... I don't actually know much myself. [Ahaha...] Some demons we can summon and they help us and act as our allies-- others we fight because...uh, well 'cause we didn't summon them, I guess. I'm not really sure what the difference is-- or if there's really one at all.

[And, as an after thought: ] I always thought they were just folk legends too. Surprising, isn't it?
