...If you wanted to share some kind of message with a younger version of yourself, what would you say?

[Simon's in the plaza today, hanging out by the fountain and pondering his journal. At some point he might be scribbling out a note on a loose sheet of paper.]

I think it'll take more than that for it to sink in. But it's a good start, that's for sure.

Yeah, I think so. [ Hmmmmms in thought. ]

What about "It'll be worth it"?

...Even I can't agree with that. [Nothing was worth Kamina's death.]

[ Action ]

[ooh-kamina.livejournal.com]

Not that.

[ Gives Simon a nudge with his elbow, a gesture meant to get the other man to look at him. ] It'll be worth it to keep trying.

You won't feel small forever.

[Ah... that. It sounds nice... encouraging. Simon nods slowly, then jots it down.]

You always know what to say.

[ooh-kamina.livejournal.com]

I think everybody's got the right words buried somewhere.

They just gotta be brave enough to say them.

[ Action ]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Not everyone knows how to say it, unfortunately. Especially when following in the footsteps of someone like you.

[ooh-kamina.livejournal.com]

It can be done. Maybe it's not easy, but...

It can be. I know that for sure.

[ Action ]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

...Heh. I'll just have to believe in the me that you believe in then, right?

[ Action ]

[ooh-kamina.livejournal.com]

Yeah. For now.

I'll tell you that as many times as you need to hear it.

[Action]

[dawndigger.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I'm counting on that.
